Conophytum ficiforme (Haw.) N.E.Br.
The name "ficiforme" is Latin for "fig-shaped", and refers to the shape of their bodies, which is raised, globose and keeled. In addition, they can be distinguished from most other Conophytums by the distinctive dots, which clearly form angular, (horseshoe-shaped) lines over their heads.
They have pale pink flowers.

These dwarf, almost stemless succulents grow in small dense clumps forming compact mats or domes. The fig-shaped bodies are greyish-green, 20 mm long and 15 mm thick, sometimes depressed at the fissure (gap, groove), with two distinct lobes. They are often flushed with purple and have characteristic horseshoe-shaped markings of greenish to reddish dots or lines which surround the fissure and cross the lobes. The highly scented rose-pink, white to pale yellow flowers are long-lasting and appear in autumn. The fruit is a capsule containing many small seeds.
