Dorstenia lavrani seeds for sale
Discover the extraordinary Dorstenia lavrani seeds for sale , a rare and captivating succulent native to the moss-filled limestone cracks of Somalia’s Tabia Gorge 313. Named in honor of botanist John Jacob Lavranos, this species forms a symmetrical grove of succulent, wax-like stems adorned with spiraling whitish leaf scars and topped with rosettes of crisped, dark green leaves, resembling a miniature palm forest 313. Its unique dioecious nature means male and female flowers occur on separate plants, requiring both for successful seed production 313. Mature plants produce disc-shaped inflorescences (hypanthodiums) in green to brown hues, adding to their exotic appeal 6.
Ideal for succulent enthusiasts and collectors, Dorstenia lavrani thrives in well-draining soil (e.g., cactus mix with perlite) and prefers bright, indirect light 36. Water moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between sessions, and reduce watering in winter to mimic dormancy 313. Seeds germinate best at 21°C (70°F) within 10–14 days, though patience is required for this slow-growing species 813.
⚠️ Note: This plant is not toxic but handle with care to avoid damaging its delicate structures 6.
Each seed order includes a detailed germination guide. Due to its limited habitat and rarity, cultivating Dorstenia lavrani supports conservation efforts 313.
Add this Somali treasure to your collection and enjoy its architectural beauty!
