Origin of Pachypodium

Pachypodium is a genus of succulent spine-bearing trees and shrubs, native to Madagascar and Africa. These plants are all summer growers and that is normally the time of year they are fully leaf and growing the most vigorously.


Caring for Pachypodium

Soils have to be very well-draining or these plants will rot if kept wet too long in poorly draining soils.

All these plants are demanding high light situations and suffer in dark, shady locations. Most are full sun plants in the wild. If grown indoors, keep in a southwest-facing window ideally.
