Plant Description
Huernia transvaalensis, the "Transvaal huernia", is an attractive tufted, leafless succulent, consisting of a number of four- or five-angled pinkish grey stems with darker markings, occasionally forming loose clumps or carpets. The five-pointed flowers range between 4 and 5 cm in diameter; colour alternates between pale yellow or cream and purple patches. It is one of the so-called “lifebuoy” huernias because of the glossy raised annulus.
