This member of the Asclepiadaceae*
family was given this name by P. R. O. Bally in 1975. It is found in
Somalia, growing in grit with little water and lots of
sun. It will grow to six centimetres and eight centimetres in height.
The flowers are dark red and seeds are the only way of reproducing.
*This family might been
incorporated in the Apocynaceae
family now.
