Ceropegia DRAGONTAIL crested stapeliiformis

The Dragontail. A fantastic crested Ceropegia stapeliiformis.
I love this plant, about 8 inches long and flat with a full 360 spiral at the base. Looks like dragon skin as well. ( Me being the kind of person that often see's dragons!!!!)
Green on the down sun side , more purple red on the sun side,this makes sense, as the normal round stemmed Ceropegia stapeliiformis come either brown or slightly green depending on how much sun they have had.
