Madagascar palm


species: Pachypodium lamerei
common name: Madagascar palm
family: Apocynaceae
where & when encountered: Montecito, CA - 2016

A delightful plant, the kind of unique material we expect from Madagascar. If this is a palm, it has passed through the imagination of Dr. Seuss. Technically it is a type of succulent, and when mature produces fragrant white flowers.
