We discovered this plant in a broken pot caught up in the middle of an overgrown succulent bush. It had a couple of 1-2m long gangling arms, and with a few lackluster browning leaves coming off. I admit I was surprised that M bothered to re-pot it. Then it kept falling over every time there was any wind because it had a heavy stake trying to do something to keep the limbs off the ground…
Anyway, (well you can see the pictures) imagine my surprise when these strange testicular flower bulbs started hanging off the leaves then – one night – I went outside to find the source of the most amazing scent wafting in from the back – and woaha this is what I found. M, G and D came out with cameras and torches and took pictures. Good thing too because it was all over the next day – the plant went back to being a strange messy gangly thing.
