Resembling a miniature \u003cem data-start=\"276\" data-end=\"289\"\u003ePachypodium\u003c\/em\u003e, this rare species develops a swollen, bottle-shaped trunk topped with a compact crown of broad blue-green leaves. Its sculptural form, paired with its slow growth and rarity in cultivation, makes it a prized specimen for collectors of unusual succulents and caudiciform plants.\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"570\" data-end=\"806\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"570\" data-end=\"589\"\u003eNative Habitat:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"589\" data-end=\"592\"\u003eNative to central Madagascar, where it grows on rocky, well-drained slopes and exposed outcrops in seasonally dry habitats.
