Dorstenia Hornwoodii
Dorstenia horwoodii - A Rare Succulent Treasure!
Discover the charm of Dorstenia horwoodii, a truly rare and fascinating succulent originating from Somalia.
This unique plant belongs to the Moraceae family and is known for its sculptural, thickened caudex and intriguing star-shaped inflorescences.
A slow-growing collector’s gem, Dorstenia horwoodii forms a compact, woody caudex that stores water, making it highly drought-tolerant and ideal for bright, sunny spots.
At TOMs FLOWer CLUB, we offer fully established plants from our own collection - organically grown, not overfertilised, ensuring top health and robustness (100% organic quality before quantity - no greenhouse mass production!).
Each plant is carefully potted in self-mixed, well-draining organic substrate and housed in a clay pot to promote healthy, natural growth.
Repotting is only needed every 2-3 years, keeping care simple and relaxed.
Key care tips:
-
Thrives in full sun to semi-shade.
-
Water moderately and allow the substrate to dry between waterings.
-
Not frost-hardy - overwinter indoors in a bright spot around 10-15°C with minimal watering.
-
Appreciates a dry winter rest to mimic its natural habitat.
You will love your Dorstenia horwoodii for its low-maintenance charm, artistic appearance, and rare collectible value.
