Description
Oscularia is a genus of succulent flowering plants in the family Aizoaceae. The most superficially recognisable feature of the genus is the strange shape of the leaves, which are grey-green and waxy. They are triangular in cross-section (3 angled) and can be sickle, club or mouth shaped. The stems are often red, and the leaves can become red too during times of drought. Abundant, almond-scented, daisy-like white or pink flowers appear throughout the summer. Oscularia is native to semi-arid and rocky habitats in the Western Cape of South Africa.
