"Definitely an Asclepiadaceae JM,

Stapelia family, but which, not sure. The flower open would probably help.

Garg ji,

Thanks to you and Dan Rhoads for the follow up and clues.

On searching, this seems to be Starfish Cactus, Toad Cactus as in Dave's Garden.

Botanical name Orbea variegata, Syn Stapelia variegata of Asclepiadaceae.

Regards,

Aarti
