Orbea verrucosa *Big Yellow & Red Flowers* Crassulaceae The color of the plantsOrbea verrucosa An attractive Stapeliad with big yellow and red mottled flowers (around 3" diameter!). This is one of the species with a flower that has a foetid smell, but it isn't overpowering. You probably won't notice it unless you are a few feet away or less. People tend to shy away from Stapeliads because of their reputation for being rot prone, but actually they are simple to grow. Give lots of light, but protect from hot afternoon sun in
