As these species grade towards the subgenus Dudleya , the petals begin to fuse at the base, with the flowers becoming tubular and red, due to an association with ...
Flower colour varies regionally, from red, orange, or yellow in Africa to pink, white, yellow, or purple in Asia. The flowers give way to swollen seed pods, each containing thousands of dustlike seeds. Underground stems are white, round with scale-like leaves, turning blue when exposed to air.
The stems are usually succulent or semi-succulent, and the leaves are sometimes semi-succulent. [11] [12] The leaves are long, thin and blade-like to lanceolate, from 3–45 cm long (1.2–17.7 in). The flowers can be white, pink, purple or blue, with three petals and six yellow anthers (or rarely, four petals and eight anthers).
The flower is tubular, the calyx of sepals extending along most of the length of the corolla, which may exceed 2 centimeters long. The lobed, lipped corolla is yellow in color and glandular and sticky in texture. The species is a root hemiparasite. [4] It is parasitic on plants in the Poaceae and Fabaceae, and inhibits the health of host ...
