small attractive caudiciform Madagascan succulents with large, showy red flowers (in right climate). Not sure how P b windsorii varies from P b baronii, but they are two distinct varieties according to the experts. I have had no luck with this plant, but it is pretty tropical (rots easily). Never gotten one to flower. No spines on this species.
