What you just read above, is the scientific al lida hapi description of Lida daidaihua. If you are a botanist, congratulations, it actually means something to you. If you are anything like me, you actually wish, never to see or hear all of this again. Ok, promise, we are done with Latin! If I would be asked what Lida  is, I would tell you: It looks like a cactus – and because it grows in the desert, needs only little water and actually has stings – I would say it is a cactus! But what do I know! Science tells us (me), Lida daidaihua is only a “cactiform”, because it is so similar to a cactus, but it really is a stem succulent. Other specifics of the plant are: it can grow up to one meter lida hapi  and it has remarkably large flowers, some of them in flesh colour and with a very strong smell.
