Senecio spp. 'Oribi Gorge'
It has been my observation that the 'Oribi Gorge', a succulent plant, has a very unique behavior when it blooms. The stems that bear the flower bend downward. It is very interesting.
Natural position of the flowers in relation to the plant itself.
Propped up flower to highlight details.
Architecturally pleasing.
Bright orange flowers inside powdery green sepals.
Flower at maximum aperture.
This is a relatively new plant in my garden which continues to be a subject of my fascination.
How lovely! I noticed a couple of our native wildflowers last spring started out with their buds all droopy, growing downwards, but they straightened up toward the sun as their blooms unfurled.

ReplyDeleteHi Helen, a million thanks for this post, since I have been trying to figure out what kind of succulent I had and was told "wait until it blooms".....which it did and on google I found your photos! How did you identify the plant? I'm growing this in Northern Israel and will be posting about it tomorrow on http://www.creativejewishmom.com all the best!
