Caralluma Melanacantha is often known as “the plant with black flowers”. The plant originates in South Africa and belongs to the family of Apocynaceae. This winter-dormant agave plant can grow up to 12 inches in height.

Growth Rate

While the succulent is a slow grower, it is one of those plants that are easy to grow and requires minimal maintenance to thrive both indoors and outdoors.

Flowering

Caralluma Melanacantha grows an interesting set of blackish or dark purple colored flowers during the summer and autumn seasons.

Watering and Feeding

Caralluma Melanacantha enjoys moderate watering during the growing season but requires plenty of watering during the summers, especially on the hottest days of the year. To help them flower freely, feed them with some liquid fertilizer in the summer.

Soil

You can either use a cactus mix or add extra perlite/pumice to a regular potting soil mix. Since the roots of the succulent are very shallow, free draining and gritty soil are ideal.

Light

Caralluma Melanacantha requires full and direct sunlight in abundance. If growing indoors, place them one foot away from the window so that they receive enough sunlight for growth.

Propagation

Propagate through stem cutting. Make sure you allow the cutting to dry for a day and then lay it on a gritty compost. Another method for propagation is by sowing seeds.

If you are looking to gift a houseplant or to grow one on your own, Caralluma Melanacantha is a perfect choice. The succulent is also known to improve the overall aura of the environment they are placed and grown.

Puppy
Pattern Name: Heartbeat Sheep Grey
Simply the best! These hold up and are a puppy favorite! They did change the heartbeat sound and it is a bit much for the newborn puppies.

Pillow is Unsafe
My eleven month old Cavalier, Lacey, loved this heartbeat pillow for about two hours. She carried it everywhere. Then she located the velcro opening. She ripped it open, pulled out the stuffing. I stuffed the heart in the bottom but I cannot locate it in the pillow nor have I found it anywhere in my home. Velcro closure is not enough to keep a curious puppy from figuring out how to open the pillow. Would I recommend this product: No I do not recommend this item. It was a total waste of my hard earned $. The closure needs to be reworked/improved. As it is now, do not leave your puppy alone with this heartbeat pillow because it is not safe! The only positive is it kept Lacey from barking for two hours while she played with it. I cannot attest that it would have helped her severe separation anxiety and yelping every time I leave the house. Lynne Weston Amazon Customer

my dogs love these! their new constant companions!
When I first opened the box and saw these three octopuses, I thought they looked a little anemic, but looks can definitely be deceiving because my dogs love them. We try to be really careful about the toys we buy because one of my dogs swallowed a squeaker in the past and had to have surgery. Ever since then, we've been really mindful about what toys they have and making sure we're watching them when they play. I have to say these have been great. My dogs carry them everywhere. They take them outside, bring them back inside, and I've had to wash them multiple times because they are so loved and so well used. For some reason, my dog who is a constant chewer and destroyer of toys has not chewed through these. They feel relatively tough, especially considering how lightweight they are. They do have a squeaker inside, but they also have something crinkly in them that makes noise when the dogs are running around and playing with them. My dogs seem to love that. My dogs also look super cute running around with the octopus legs hanging out of their mouths. Fun product!

Great toys for dogs
I received these octopus toys for my dog because he destroys stuffed toys almost immediately, and I liked that these were no stuffing. They ended up being a big hit right away. The squeakers kept him interested longer than most toys do, and he loves shaking the octopus legs around while playing. Since there’s no stuffing inside, I don’t have to worry about coming home to fluff all over the house, which has honestly been a huge plus. The toys are lightweight and easy for him to carry around, and they work well for toss and fetch too. I have a medium sized dog, but I could see these being fun for smaller or even larger dogs depending on how aggressive of a chewer they are. They seem decently durable for plush toys. Mine have held up better than expected considering how rough my dog can be with his toys. The stitching has stayed together pretty well so far. I also like that the pack comes with three because one is always getting hidden somewhere in the house. It’s nice having extras ready to go. These have definitely helped keep my dog entertained and busy, especially on days when we can’t spend as much time outside.
