Origin of Dorstenia foetida
Dorstenia foetida comes from the dry deserts of northeastern tropical Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. It's not easy to find everywhere, making it quite a unique catch for collectors. In Oman, this plant has a practical side too, with its tubers cooked and eaten, showcasing its versatility beyond just being a display piece.
Quick Care Tips
Dorstenia foetida needs bright yet indirect light, with at least 60% shade being ideal. Unlike other succulents, it appreciates more water during its growing season, but make sure not to overwater or you'll risk root rot. Use a well-draining soil mix, preferably one with pumice and akadama, to keep it happy. If you're looking to propagate, seeds or offsets work best.
What Makes It Special
This succulent stands out with its disc-like structure and varied leaf shapes and sizes. In the summer, it blooms with solitary flowers, which can range in shades of greyish, green, orange, or pinkish. It's a fast grower, usually adding about 20-25 cm each year. Its unique looks and the ability to be a food source in Oman add to its special appeal.
