Conophytum pageae Seeds

South African Indigenous Succulent Mesemb

Conophytum is a genus of South African and Namibian succulent plants that belong to the family Aizoaceae. The name is derived from the Latin conus and Greek phytum. The plants are also known as knopies, waterblasies, sphaeroids, conos, cone plants, dumplings, or button plants. They are well adapted to pot culture and are quite happy on a sunny windowsill. In their distribution range they do well in rockeries. Next to Lithops, Conophytum is the most popular genus of the Mesembs. Conophytum pageae is a small succulent that usually grows in clusters of many bodies, forming a small mound. The bodies are inversely conical up to 2.5cm tall, up to 3.5cm in diameter and composed of two almost entirely fused leaves. The solitary flowers that appear in autumn are nocturnal, fragrant, showy yellow, somtimes nearly white or rarely pink.
