| This is one of
the so called crocodile Ceropegias, a name that derives from the
reptile-like appearance of some members of that group. The stems are highly succulent in the beginning but bear some quite large leaves. Later the stems become continuously slimmer and start to grow twining. The flowers are quite large and their petals are not united. |
