Fockea edulis K. Schum.
A member of the Asclepiadaceae, F. edulis can be deciduous in winter if kept cold and dry. The plant will take regular water and fertilizer in summer. Though the name 'edulis' indicates the plant is edible (It was eaten by the native population of Southern Africa), cooking is required to rid the plant of the alkaloids which are present.
