Striking banner, Baja! Alien-like! It looks like a flower that might be pollinated by flies---does it have an odor?

No odor that I could detect, but maybe the flies have more discerning noses. Smiling

My favorite type of succulent. No thorns and a willing bloomer. Very nice selection for a banner. Thumbs up
