Stapelia grandiflora is a species of flowering plant in the genus Stapelia of the family Apocynaceae.[1] It is commonly referred to as the carrion plant, starfish flower, giant toad plant, or starfish cactus, although it is not related to cacti at all.[3] This "carrion plant" nickname can also refer to similar Stapelia species as well as members of related genera, including Stapelia gigantea and Orbea variegata. Stapelia grandiflora sometimes also goes by the name of Stapelia flavirostris.[2][3] The plant is native to South Africa, including the Northern Cape, Eastern Cape, and Free State.[4]
