Tanquana hilmarii Seeds

South African Indigenous Mesemb

Tanquana hilmarii is a dwarf succulent plant with reddish/purplish, highly polished leaves. The genus name, Tanquana, is derived from the Tanqua Karoo ( also known as the Ceres Karoo), the arid area where this plant comes from. The species has been named in honour of Hilmar Lückoff. This mesemb grows in very rocky environments and closely mimics the soil. In their natural environment the plants receive very little rain but ocean fog moves inland in the evenings, and this moisture sustains a wealth of succulent life in this harsh semi-desert region. During spring it has awsome golden yellow flowers that have a strong spicy scent. It is can be sown in spring or autumn.
