Ceropegia fusca is an erect, woody succulent subshrub from the Canary Islands, grown for its tubular reddish-brown flowers. The key to growing it is strong sun, warmth and very sparing watering.
Ceropegia fusca is a flowering plant in the genus Ceropegia (Apocynaceae). It is endemic to the Canary Islands, where it grows on Tenerife (especially the Macizo de Anaga area), Gran Canaria, and La Palma in the Tabaibal-Cardonal zone at up to about 600 m altitude.
Ceropegia fusca is used as an ornamental plant in dry and drought tolerant water conserving gardens. It requires hot conditions to grow well.
