EtonGreen Live Huernia Zebrina (Little Owl Eyes) Succulent Plant

Lifesaver Plant (Huernia zebrina): This unique centerpiece plant is known for its other-worldly blooms. The flowers are striped bright yellow and red with a thick rubbery ring in the center, which have earned it the nickname ‘Lifesaver Plant’. It blooms generously from late spring through summer. The thick, angular stems have spiked margins and can flush red with strong sun, though these low-growing plants prefer a partial shade when temperatures are high. Some Huernia (as with other stapeliads) can produce a strong foul odor when in bloom, but the varieties in our greenhouse have never produced a noticeable smell.
