介紹
犀角屬是一種生長緩慢、沒有骨刺、莖幹多汁的植物,主要來自南非,還有一些來自非洲其他地區。一些亞洲和拉丁美洲的物種曾經被包括在內,但是現在它們都被轉移到其他屬。某些種類的花在完全打開時,直徑可達41厘米(16英寸)。大多數的花枝花都是明顯的毛,當它們開花的時候,會產生腐肉的氣味;這樣的氣味可以吸引各種各樣的傳粉者,包括在有腐臭的花朵的情況下,還有雙翅目昆蟲科的飛蠅。他們經常在被植物欺騙的植物的冠狀花上產卵。
這種毛茸茸的、奇怪的、有顏色的花,被認為是一種腐肉的樣子,再加上它們的氣味,犀角屬以此命名。
在氣候許可的國家,一些物種通常被作為盆栽植物種植,甚至被用作山岩植物。犀角屬植物是很好的容器植物,在陽光充足的情況下可以生長得很好。它們應該被放置在排水良好的堆肥中,因為如果長時間保持潮濕,莖幹就容易腐爛。
