SEYRIGIA humbertii

Author : Keraudren
Family : Cucurbitaceae
Habitat : Madagascar

Seyrigias are not very widespread in culture.The best known of them is Seyrigia humberti, a curious succulent cucurbit from Madagascar that has small tubers resembling potatoes and remarkable stems covered with white felt that protects them from the sun. While the stems are attractive, the small flowers are insignificant.
The tubers, which can grow up to 8 centimeters in diameter, function as water storage for dry periods. These tubers, often mistakenly thought of as a caudex, can easily be raised above the substrate level or out of the pot for viewing.
