Schwartzia, a variety of a succulent that we can't find anywhere on the Web.

Del, this is the head of the snake like thing by the rose, which is now in the background. I really have to do something about this great plant.  Posted by Picasa

    What a beatiful and unusual flower. You can't find it anywhere on the web?

    Hi Karen,

    I could find it in my succulent book....if I could find the book. =o\ It's not on the book shelves for some dumb reason.

    What looks like petals are actually the leaves of the plant. There's a green variety that looks just like the dark variety. It's so common a plant here that I was sure I'd find it on the web. No luck so far. Schwartzii is all there is on the web, and that's a succulent tree in Mexico and Central America.

    My pleasure Del. It's a good thing that the pictures were taken yesterday because it's been pouring down rain off and on for hours (since yesterday at 5pm). We need this rain so much.
