Caudiciform that caught my eyes

Post by MagiCarpus »

Ran into this beauty during my winter vacation but didn't know what to call it. Is it even a succulent?

Jathropa podagrica, I think.

It is relatively common in Brazil (not native); I've recently found some in a farm and picked up some seeds, two of them have just germinated. If you (or anyone) want it, I can manage to send you some seeds.
