Common Name: Bushman Candle Sarcocaulon is a genus of succulent, spiny shrublets with short stems, branching just above soil level. The fleshy branches are prostrate, semi-erect or erect, covered with waxy, translucent bark. Members of Sarcocaulon are mainly found in the western part of South Africa and Namibia. The most widespread species is S. salmoniflorum, and S. vanderietiae is the species with the most easterly distribution.
The branches are usually less than 10 mm wide. The leaf blades are broadly obovate to flat with a ± circular outline (orbicular), 3–11 mm, pale bluish green and hairless. The spines are thin and straight and form 2–4 blunt stalks in axils of spines. The flower petals are 16–26 mm long and are yellow to lemon yellow.
