This dramatic caudiciform combines a swollen, sculpted base with a twining vine—equal parts botanical curiosity and living sculpture.

‘Big Foot’ is a cultivated form prized for its exaggerated caudex, which can resemble a gnarled, ancient root system erupting from the soil. Over time, the caudex develops deep fissures and characterful contours, while slender vines climb, sprawl, or cascade depending on how it’s trained. It’s a plant that looks older than it is—always a favorite among caudex collectors and succulent enthusiasts.

Native to arid regions of southern Africa, Gerrardanthus macrorhizus stores water in its caudex to survive long dry periods, then bursts into growth when conditions are favorable. In cultivation, this rhythm translates into a fascinating seasonal push-and-rest cycle.

How to Grow Indoors

  • Light: Bright gentle light, with direct sun tolerated once acclimated

  • Water: Water deeply, then allow the soil to dry completely. Allow to stay for a few days before rewatering. Overwatering is the fastest way to lose this plant

  • Soil: Extremely fast-draining mix (cactus mix amended with pumice or perlite)

  • Growth habit: Climbing vine — provide a trellis, let it trail, or allow it to ramble naturally

  • Dormancy: Growth may slow or stop seasonally; reduce watering during rest periods

How to Grow Outdoors (Bay Area)

Best grown outdoors only in warm, dry microclimates with excellent drainage and protection from prolonged cold or winter rain. In San Francisco, this plant is generally happiest grown as a container specimen that can be moved under cover during wet months.

Bloom Information

Produces small, inconspicuous flowers when mature. This plant is grown primarily for its caudex and architectural form rather than its blooms.

Perfect size, high quality
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
I had a previous catch all tray that I bought on amazon, it used buttons on the 4 corners to turn a flat cardboard into a tray. Over time, the catch all tray got filled up, not just with a wallet, keys and eyeglasses but eventually business cards and other knick knacks. With all the items inside the tray, sometimes the buttons would start to pop out. It wasn't awful, more of an annoyance. But it was time for me to find a more durable tray. I looked on amazon and added 6 different trays that had "potential" into my shopping cart. Then I carefully evaluated each one and deleted them out of my cart until there was only one left. Some had multiple compartments. Some were larger than this one. I felt the ones with compartments would limit my ability to put the things I want in there. Also, I didn't want it so big that it took up too much desk space. Ultimately, I felt this was the perfect size. I'm extremely happy with it, the quality is really nice and it looks and feels durable. No more loose buttons and spilled knick knacks.

Keeps clutter away
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
This works great to corral all my notes I write on post its or small notes. Keeping them hidden from the desk top b/c or the depth but still visible to me. Much better than keeping on the plotter. Looks great in quality .

Attractive, Simple, And Well-Made
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided)
I use this as a "catchall". A place to stash things like my wallet and keys when I enter the door, so that I don't use them (I had been prone to that!). It serves it's purpose well. It's both sturdy and attractive, and a good size for a "catchall". Recommended for those like me who need such things.
