Re: Huernia hislopii
Huernia hislopii has three subspecies and your plant looks like an ok match to me for the typical subsp. hislopii since this has corolla lobes which are longer than they are broad. This has a widespread distribution in Zimbabwe and Mozambique.

Re: Huernia hislopii
Ralph Martin supplied the original cutting so he has no doubt noted it diligently.
I have the ssp. cashelensis but it isn’t quite big enough to flower yet.

Re: Huernia hislopii
Just updated my record. Thanks! In turn, it came from Antun, who also might like to update his record!

Re: Huernia hislopii
Looks like I have beaten Mike to it. Here is H. hislopii ssp. cashalensis, which came from Mike!
On the other hand, it still seems to have corolla lobes longer than broad?...

Re: Huernia hislopii
Bruyns thinks it close to longituba.
