Boucerosia diffusa

A sprawling, leafless stem succulent of the Indian Eastern Ghats, known here from a single wild record. It lives through a hot dry spring and a very wet monsoon, so it needs bright warmth, sharp drainage and a dry winter.

Where it grows wild

Little published detail; like other Boucerosia it most likely grows on rocky slopes and outcrops in dry deciduous scrub, sheltered partly by shrubs and rocks.

The one recorded site is about 650 m in the Eastern Ghats.
