Notes:Pachypodium is a genus of African succulent arboreal plants that comprises 23species, 18 native of Madagascar and 5 native of the continent. They are all xerophyte,meaning that they live in dry or even arid conditions, both because ofthe long dry season (up to 10 months) and because they grow on rocky, sandyor gravely soils, that do not retain water and nutrients. They can survive coldwinters, but their leaves die and they fall in dormant state. The big trunk ofPachypodium geayi resembles a bottle shape, hence the common name.
