{"product_id":"conophytum-ectypum-sulcatum","title":"Conophytum ectypum ssp. sulcatum","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost Conophytum are capable of shriveling to conserve moisture during periods of extreme drought, but few seem to have evolved to look permanently shriveled, regardless of how healthy they are. C. ectypum subsp. brownii leans fully embraces this, and may be the Conophytum most spiritually aligned with a raisin. Its brain-like, bumpy surface may function as a form of misdirection, discouraging would-be grazers that might otherwise mistake the plump, mature bodies for something worth eating. This subspecies is known from a single hill near Jakkalswater in the Namaqualand region of South Africa’s winter-rainfall Northern Cape. We allow it a dry summer rest like most Conophytum, during which the tactile rippling remains faintly visible beneath the papery sheath.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rare Plant Catalog","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51626621010200,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0912\/1175\/9896\/files\/conophytumecytpum.png?v=1769985193","url":"https:\/\/rareplantcatalog.com\/products\/conophytum-ectypum-sulcatum","provider":"Rare Plant Catalog","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
