Plant Traveller: Pereskia lychnidiflora Original cactus #succulents

Here is another very interesting member of the Pereskia family, which generally covers 17 species. Very tropical, it will need a genuine warm climate to flourish. Please also note it can grow to a very great size if you let it.. Also note the spectacular yellow flowers, not seen at its best here.

Best grown from seeds in a communal pot for at least a year. It can also grow from cuttings. Needs the nuance of tropical climate to flourish, but I grow my plants in my greenhouse. In a temperate climate, do expect some defoliation of the leaves to happen in winter.
