Speaking of complicators: hybrids. This is a plant I bought off eBay from a nursery that so far has been reliable at IDs. This was sold as an open-pollinated Huernia zebrina hybrid. It’s not clear from that if the seed parent is H. zebrina or a hybrid itself, but this plant finally flowered today, and I am going to guess it has some H. thuretti var. primulina in it. Not only does that nursery sell it, but the flower’s very similar, minus the striped throat. Ngl, I was hoping for something flashier, but it’s got its own subdued charm.

This succulent has the raddest flower ever. Unfortunately, it’s supposed to be pretty hard to grow unless you have a hot climate.
