A low maintenance succulent plant known for the starfish shaped flowers that it readily produces.

There are many different varieties of Stapelia which each produce a different type of bloom, the Leendertziae produces dark maroon coloured flowers with a bell shape.

This plant is incredibly soft to the touch, if you ever had Sylvanian Families growing up – the  Leendertziae’s stems have the same fuzzy ‘flocked’ feeling! 

An easy-care plant which is happy to be left on a windowsill and not fussy about missing the occasional watering.
