Dioscorea elephantipes has gained a cult-like following among collectors and for good reason. Native to South Africa’s arid regions, this caudiciform curiosity is named for its thick, woody base—or caudex—which develops a rugged, elephant-like texture over time. It looks more like a fossil or a desert artifact than something alive, but come fall, it sends out a twining, heart-leaved vine that seems to emerge magically from its sculptural shell.

This is a long-lived, slow-growing plant with a deeply seasonal rhythm. During its active growth phase (usually fall through spring), it pushes out delicate vines that can climb several feet if given support. In summer, the foliage dies back and the plant rests—during this dormancy, it wants almost no water at all. Over time, the caudex continues to grow larger, more intricate, and more impressive with age.


Care at a Glance

  • Light: Bright indirect light to full sun; protect from harsh afternoon rays indoors

  • Water: Water sparingly only when in active growth (fall–spring); keep nearly dry during dormancy

  • Soil: Extremely well-draining mix—cactus, bonsai, or a gritty custom blend

  • Temperature: Warm and dry; protect from frost

  • Dormancy: Summer (typically drops leaves and rests)

  • Growth Habit: Twining vine from woody caudex; excellent for training up a small trellis or frame


This is a plant for patient growers and lovers of the weird and wonderful. It doesn’t demand much, but rewards attentiveness with fascinating texture, seasonal drama, and a deeply satisfying sense of longevity. Whether displayed as a potted oddity or integrated into a caudex collection, Dioscorea elephantipes is nothing short of captivating.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know. PRO: * Very likable characters * Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well * The spelling and grammar are good * The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens. CON: * Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack * Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done * Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order THINGS TO KNOW: * More steamy scenes than storytelling * A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book. Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray. I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.
