Hoodia juttae
The genus Hoodia is part of the group known as the stapeliads. These wonderful plants have succulent cylindrical stems and flowers that often are reminiscent of sea stars - but in the case of Hoodia, the five corolla lobes are fused into a "satelllte dish", as seen in the photos. The stapeliads are relaties of the milkweeds, and were long classified as members of the Milkweed Family (Asclepiadaceae), but now this whole family has been moved into the related Dogbane Family (Apocynaceae). So what was once the family Asclepiadaceae is now the subfamiy Asclepiadoideae. Hoodia juttae is native to southern Namibia, in southwestern Africa.

/rp Fanart for the incredible fic greener grasses by Apocynaceae. This fic is a certifiied epic. I would describe it as: a dark Schlatt/Quackity modern-fantasy university AU... with post-apocalyptic elements... that slow-burn takes a nose-dive into being much bigger and weirder than that. You may notice the "SCP-inspired AU" tag on the fic; that's what caught my attention. The SCP inspiration is later in the fic and more conceptual and deep-cut than I was expecting; it's not the parts of SCP I expect to see in an SCP AU.
The pacing is masterful. The worldbuilding is also masterful. You know how a lot of weird-premise AUs seem like they're only maybe inspired by the source material but are kind of a platform for just writing a different fantasy story entirely? This isn't. Or, like, it could have chosen to be, the author clearly made up this intense and inspired magic system/worldbuilding for this fic and could have applied it to another story; but they didn't, and goddamn. Anyway, read this fic. (Do heed the tags.) Art is a rare tender moment from Book 2 of Schlatt braiding Quackity's hair while getting him to take a break from painting to eat a sandwich. Lord knows I'm a fluff enjoyer in general, but I cannot describe how broadly non-tender this fic is. it is dark and deeply weird. This scene is like fuckin 500,000 words in. and I like fluff at any point but like that far into this kind of story, the cheese sandwiches and the fact that Q paints for fun hit different. Do you know what I mean? It's a Total Eclipse by Annie Dillard kind of vibe.

What smells like rotting flesh and looks like some kind of underwater or alien creature? Spooky, scary #StapeliaGigantea.

Have you heard about #CorpseflowerCocktails? Every month my subscribers get a new recipe for a delicious non-alcoholic drink inspired by a fetid flower. Just posted the recipes for August, but now I have to drink both of these model Orbea lutea beverages, oh noooooo poor me!

Huernia thuretii
This small stem-succulent is one of a group of milkweed relatives known as the stapeliads. The plants in this group generally have 5-ponted flowers (often with a starfish-like appearance), but the flower in the photo above has made an anomalous bloom with 6 points, visible at the bottom of the photo among a group of unopened buds. Huernia thuretii is only one among hundreds of species in numerous genera that belong to the stapeliad group. These were all formerly put in the Milkweed Family (Asclepiadaceae), but this whole family has been merged into the related Dogbane Family (Apocynaceae). Huernia thuretii comes from South Africa's Eastern Cape Province.
