Senecio stapeliiformis – The Exotic Pickle Plant with Personality
Senecio stapeliiformis, also known as the Pickle Plant or Candle Plant, is a rare and quirky succulent that turns heads with its unique form and zebra-striped stems. This eye-catching species features upright, pencil-like stems marked with deep green and purple patterns – and in summer, it surprises with striking orange-red, star-shaped blooms that resemble a Stapelia flower!
Features:
-
Unusual Appearance: Cylindrical, fleshy stems with bold striping – like miniature cacti with no spines.
-
Rare Bloomer: Produces large, fiery orange flowers in warm months.
-
Architectural Shape: Adds height and texture to any succulent arrangement.
-
Low Maintenance: Drought-tolerant and thrives with minimal care.
-
Collector’s Favourite: A must-have for those who love rare and unusual succulents.
Care Tips:
-
Light: Bright indirect light to full sun. Indoor or sheltered outdoor position works best.
-
Water: Allow soil to dry out completely between waterings.
-
Soil: Free-draining succulent or cactus mix to prevent root rot.
-
Climate: Prefers warm, dry conditions. Protect from frost.
Whether you're a seasoned succulent collector or just love plants with personality, Senecio stapeliiformis brings drama, structure, and beauty to any pot or garden bed.

Arrived in great condition
This is an interesting plant, it arrived, as did the other two plants in my order in a robust condition. It didn’t miss a beat from being taken out of soil, sent through the mail & repotted…In short, it is thriving. All my plants came bare rooted as you are told they will & if this concerns you it shouldn’t. I have purchased a lot of succulents online & from experience the travel better without soil. Without soil they can be packed more securely to withstand the rigours of postage & mine from here were extremely well packed. I could not be happier with all aspects of my purchase & will not only buy here again, I feel totally comfortable to recommend to family, friends & you who is reading this.
