Faucaria tuberculosa


('productnameshort')

Faucaria tuberculosa is known as pebbled tiger jaws with extra projections across the leaf surface joining the serrated edges.


Description:
Faucaria tuberculosa is known as pebbled tiger jaws. Its opposite leaves are toothed on the edges and have raised projections across the leaf making it look like a very toothy specimen. It is related to F. tigrina which has a smoother leaf surface. Yellow, star-like flowers reveal its relationship to the ice plants (Delosperma). Protect indoors in winter or as a houseplant year round.
