Hoodia juttae

A rarely recorded stem succulent of the stapeliad group from arid Namibia. Like other Hoodia it needs intense light, a gritty mineral mix, warm-season watering and a bone-dry winter; overwatering is the usual cause of loss.

Where it grows wild

Thought to grow on stony, gravelly ground in arid dwarf shrubland, as other Hoodia do; species-specific habitat detail is thin.

No elevation records; the two climate points sit at about 1,200 and 1,770 m on the Namibian interior plateau.
