Pachypodium Rutenbergianum 210mm

Pachypodium rutenbergianum – The Majestic Bottle Tree of Madagascar

Turn your garden or patio into an exotic showcase with Pachypodium rutenbergianum, a stunning succulent tree celebrated for its dramatic, architectural beauty. Native to Madagascar, this striking species features a thick, bottle-shaped trunk that stores water, crowned with a lush rosette of slender, lance-like leaves. Its unique form blends tropical elegance with rugged resilience, making it an unforgettable focal point in any setting.

Why It’s a Showstopper:

• Architectural Statement: A sculptural trunk topped with graceful, leafy growth creates instant visual impact.

• Water-Wise Wonder: Naturally adapted to arid conditions—perfect for xeriscaping and low-maintenance gardens.

• Effortless Care: Thrives in full sun, well-draining soil, and needs only occasional watering once established.

• Built for Resilience: Handles long dry spells and heat with ease; just protect from frost in cooler climates.

Whether showcased in a modern container, desert-style garden, or as a bold standalone specimen, Pachypodium rutenbergianum combines the drama of an architectural plant with the reliability of a hardy succulent. It’s more than a plant—it’s a living sculpture.

The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 210mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
