A medium-size, stem-less, beautifully structured plant. Its leaves are grey-green, upright and lined with neat, small reddish-brown spines. Multiple, branched inflorescences parade their uniquely shaped, orange-to-golden yellow racemes from late winter to spring.
“Starburst” will reward the grower with its showy flowers either as a pot or garden subject. Open area plants appreciate a top dressing of kraal manure after the flower season. This should be timed so that water can carry the nutrients into the soil - rain and hosepipe work equally well.
