𝘏𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘪 (bitter ghaap) is a spiny succulent with many cactus-like branches and large flowers that vary in colour from a pale yellow to a dark maroon. First named 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘱𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘪 after its discovery by Paterson and Col. R.F Gordon, it was later transferred into the genus Hoodia, a genus named in honour of Van Hood, a keen succulent grower. They have evolved flowers that give off a very pungent carrion scent (similar to that of rotten meat) and rely on flies for pollination, which is known as myophily. This drought-tolerant plant can be found in parts of the Northern and north-eastern Western Cape in South Africa and throughout most of southern Namibia, and can survive in climates where the maximum temperature reaches above 40°C. The Khoisan people have known of and utilised the appetite suppressant properties of 𝘏𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘪 for centuries. They would chew the stem of this plant (obviously removing the spines first) to suppress their hunger and thirst and boost their energy on long hunting trips, often not eating for days. Today trade in 𝘏𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘪 is restricted, though the appetite suppressant properties have been developed and 𝘏𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘪𝘢 derivative products are marketed in many western countries where obesity is becoming a problem.

The images illustrate the different flowers and different species that occur at Bosch Luys Kloof. Large round flowers of 𝘏. 𝘨𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘪 and the star shaped smaller flowers of 𝘏. 𝘱𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘢.
