Fresh seed of Hoodia pilifera spp. annulata available here:
Hoodia pilifera spp. annulata was previously known as Trichocaulon annulatum This is the largest growing Hoodia in South Africa. The size depends somewhat on the locality where they come from. Some plants reaching a mass of 200 kg have been recorded.
Hoodia pilifera spp. annulata occurs in semi-desert areas of the Willowmore and Jansenville districts of the Eastern Cape and make a beautiful display when in flower. This is one of the species that the Bushmen regard as "ghaap".
The cultivation is similar to most others in the genus, with good light and drainage, as well as a dry period between waterings.
