Dischidia platyphylla Size:2.5" Pot growing in a rosette-like formationDischidia platyphylla is a fascinating epiphytic plant species in the Apocynaceae family, native to Southeast Asia. It is best known for its distinctive flat, leaf like structures that resemble small, green pancakes or shingles layered along its stems.
