Trichodiadema fergusoniae

Floriferous, bizarre-rooted shrubby mesem. Rewarding in flower, petals have pinstripes. Easy in a pot, raise roots slightly on repotting for best view. Control thrips or they will silver the leaves and vex the owner on a regular basis.

4.Indoors OK, Outdoors OK only if protected from winter rain.

Cute little plant, suits bonsai presentation.
Calisthenics at the health farm?
Dry silvered leaves… needs a total haircut (a No. 1), and probably a sandier potting mix as well.
Healthy new leaves after a haircut.
Our biggest specimen.
