Bergeranthus vespertinus ((A.Berger)Schwantes 1926) With extremely fleshy, claw-shaped leaves that have well-defined edges, allowing them to store water, the foliage is dark green, sometimes with grayish tones. Unlike other members of its genus, its flowers open in the mid-afternoon, a characteristic that gives the species its name. The flowers are a yellowish-white color, delicate, and attractive. It requires sandy, very well-drained soil, appreciates infrequent watering, and thrives best in full sun. Etymology: From the Latin (vespertinus), referring to the fact that its flowers open in the evening.Place of Origin: Southwestern South Africa.
