It is listed on the IUCN as critically endangered and it is believed that there may be fewer than 50 plants being grown privately by people around the world. Not much is known about the Discocactus subterraneo-proliferans, which doesn’t really have a common name, other than it may be extinct in the wild. Photo source: Wikimedia Commons via EddieEstevesPereira Scientific Name: Discocactus subterraneo-proliferans Location (Range): Britania, Goiás, Brazil Some of the greatest threats to the Giant Quiver Tree, are its naturally small population, illegal collecting, low natural recruitment, and habitat loss through mining and livestock farming.Ĭurrent Estimated Number: likely extinct in the wild, fewer than 50 in private collections As its name implies, the Giant Quiver Tree can grow very tall, reaching a maximum height of about 10 m (32.8 ft). The Giant Quiver Tree and the other aloe trees used to be classified as aloes, but a new genus, Aloidendron, was created for these unique succulent trees. According to the IUCN Red List there may be fewer than 200 individual Giant Quiver Trees remaining in the wild. Of the three African aloe trees, the Giant Quiver Tree or Aloidendron pillansii is the rarest. While the Giant Quiver Tree may not look like most succulents, it is one of three aloe trees native to southern Africa – all aloe plants are succulents.

Location (Range): Ritchersveld, Cape Province, South Africa and possibly as far north as Brandberg, Namibia Conservationists discourage people from taking the Sand Dollar Cactus from the wild because it is actually quite easy to grow from seeds and cuttings. The last update, from 2015, on the wild population numbers of the Sand Dollar Cactus estimated that there were only about 2,000 individual plants left. However, this popularity makes the Sand Dollar Cactus vulnerable in the wild and the IUCN Red List reports that people from around the world often illegally remove the cactus from the wild and mail them home. The Sand Dollar Cactus has been a popular ornamental succulent since it was first collected in the mid-1800s. This cute little cactus is widely cultivated by succulent/cacti enthusiasts. The Sand Dollar Cactus (also called sea urchin cactus, star cactus, or star peyote) is a rare spineless cactus that is native to parts of Texas and Mexico.
