Trichodiadema mirabile is a small succulent plant native to the Western Cape Province in South Africa. It is commonly found in the Laingsburg area and on south-facing slopes. The plant grows up to 11 cm tall and has stiff, papillate leaves with dark-brown bristles at the tips. Its white to pale-cream flowers have filamentous staminodes and are on short stalks. This species closely resembles Trichodiadema orientale, but can be distinguished by its 6 locule fruit capsule and erect-inclining diadem bristles. It is one of only three species in the genus to have this type of bristle. Photos of Trichodiadema mirabile can be found on Wikimedia Commons.
