Hoodia gordonii
This plant flowered for me for the first time this year so I was quite chuffed. I grew it from Asclepiad Society seed way back in 2013. It has not been out of flower all summer and has several flowers at a time. Obviously the smell of the flower is not nice.

Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.

Re: Hoodia gordonii
Well done. Mine has also had several bursts of flowering this year. Thanks go to Mike for providing it to me!
I've grown Hoodia parviflora from seed this year, and hope I can keep that long enough to see it flower too.
