Climbing Onion (Bowiea volubilis) — Rare Caudiciform Live Plant
The Climbing Onion, Bowiea volubilis, is a fascinating caudiciform plant prized by collectors for its large green bulb (caudex) and delicate climbing vines that emerge from the top. The vines scramble and twine, creating an unusual architectural display unlike any typical houseplant. A true conversation piece for succulent and caudex collectors.
