''Gasteria excelsa'' ("Thicket Gasteria") is a succulent plant, native to the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. ==Description== It is one of the largest of the Gasteria species, second only to ''Gasteria acinacifolia'' in height. It has thicker, more robust leaves than its relative though, and forms solitary rosettes of large, smooth, stiff, triangular leaves. It can be distinguished from its closest relatives by its leaves, which are a distinctive mottled, dark green colour. They have a smooth surface (though juvenile plants' leaves have tubercles) and rough leaf margins. The leaves of fully grown plants are often channeled on the upper side, with sharp edges and a keel on their lower side. The branched inflorescence is often over a meter in height, with pink-green flowers and appears between November and February.〔(Gasteria excelsa - PlantzAfrica information page )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gasteria excelsa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
