A brief history: Dinter collected this relatively small species from near Maltahone in south-central Namibia. It got lumped into S. aethiopica, which it does not resemble in any shape or form. Chahinian (2001) provided the description and kept it as a viable species. These plants have flexible light green leaves and a short flower peduncle. These plants are rooted offsets in one-gallon pots.
