Lime

This small caudiciform grows up to 3 feet (91.4 cm) tall. The perforated stem is gray-green, and is covered in thick bunches of flexible lime spines. It has a wonky, thick, vibrant green trunk atop a thick, gnarled web of smooth, exposed roots. The branches are thick and moss green and trail down to the ground.

The rounded-edged, circular leaves are vibrant orange on the sides and grey at the center. They are strong and flexible, but take little effort to detach.

It is steady-growing, taking 6 months to reach maturity. Once mature, and only under the right conditions, a handful of flowers, with solid aquamarine petals and a light brown central disk, grow at the top, reappearing after 3 years, but only when the conditions are right again. The flower head is an uncoordinated mess of 14 curved petals. It has an overpowering scent that smells like new carpet.

The caudiciform's skin is thin, the red flesh is rough, and the beige sap is thin.
