green, four sides, ridges on the edges, gets a brown flower with darker brown stripes and a bit fussy and waxy.


Drought Smart Plants reply:
Hi Vi, this picture is just too small to tell what it might be. Could it possibly be some kind of Stapelia? Make sure to scroll down and look at some of the links to the other visitor stories, there are more pictures in there.

Sorry I'm not very helpful!

Best,
Jacki

I'm so glad I helped - even if I couldn't see the picture very well - the five petals helped!

Enjoy your plant,
