Title: Identification wanted
Post by: ruweiss on June 21, 2015, 09:58:57 PM

Got this plant from a friend as a Senecio spec. from a friend.
Can anybody of the experts help me with the true name?

Are the flowers held singly or are they several to a stem?  If several to a stem then perhaps Senecio fremontii??

Maggi, thank you for your quick identification.
The 3 flowers are all to one stem, so I also think, that
Senecio fremontii is the correct name

I get the impression that there are not too many people growing these American Senecio species. They seem interesting plants.
