Bryophyllum tubiflorum, a succulent perennial herb native to Madagascar, grows wild in the western coastal districts. Leaves, 6-8cm in length, spotted with purple-black on a gray-green background, with bulbils at tips. The bulbils that have fallen on the ground take root; thus, this species can asexually propagate. Flowers, ranging from orange to bright red, are set on the stem apices. Bloom time: May-August.
