Orbea variegata
The plant can readily set seed and, as can be
seen from the right hand picture, these need to be contained when they
ripen, else they can float from the pods and drift around the greenhouse
on the slightest breeze! Like most Asclepiads the seeds germinate readily
provided they are sown when fresh.
