Cotyledon orbiculata hybrid #1
A very unusual hybrid or form of 'orbiculata'.
The shrubby growth and 'opposite' leaves are like Cotyledon orbiculata 'v. orbiculata' or 'v. higginsiae' and I originally labelled it as the latter. However once it flowered it did not conform to any description in any of my reference books.
The buds developed in the pendulous form common to most Cotyledon's, but the flowers were completely different.
Details of the flowers are on the next sub page.
