Suggest a correction or write a new one!
Glottiphyllum oligocarpum is a species of succulent plant, native to the arid areas of the Little Karoo in the Western Cape, South Africa. It produces its leaves in two ranks, with each leaf covered in a white, waxy layer. The stalk-less fruits have soft, conical bases and fall off the plant when they dry, becoming tumble fruits and spreading the seeds. It is similar to its close relative Glottiphyllum nelii, but has fewer branches and fewer leaves per branch. It is found in open quartz flats in the arid north-east of the Little Karoo and the south eastern corner of the Great Karoo.
