Tylecodon
''Tylecodon'' is a genus of succulent plants in the family Crassulaceae, native to southern Africa. Until the late 1970s all these plants were included in the genus ''Cotyledon'', but in 1978 Helmut Toelken of the Botanical Research Institute, Pretoria, split them off into a genus of their own. Description and taxonomy The grounds for splitting ''Cotyledon'' to create the new genus included certain features of the flowers, but more conspicuously, the leaves of ''Tylecodon'' are deciduous in summer and they are borne in a spiral arrangement, rather than the opposite, decussate arrangement of ''Cotyledon'' leaves. The species are very varied, ranging from dwarf succulents such as '' Tylecodon reticulatus'' to '' Tylecodon paniculatus'', which may exceed two metres in height. The new name ''Tylecodon'' was apparently chosen as a syllabic anagram of the earlier name ''Cotyledon''. Pharmacology and toxicology ''Tylecodon'' species are poisonous. Some of them are sufficient ...

Tylecodon Paniculatus
''Tylecodon paniculatus'', also known as butter bush, butter tree, butterboom or rooisuikerblom (Afrikaans), is a species of succulent plant in the genus ''Tylecodon'' belonging to the family Crassulaceae. Etymology The genus name is a syllabic anagram of the former name ''Cotyledon'', created by Helmut Toelken who split a few species off into a genus of their own. The species Latin epithet refers to the shape of inflorescence — branched terminal panicles. The common names refer to soft, fleshy and brittle stems. For centuries children have used the soft, slippery stems as sleds. Description ''Tylecodon paniculatus'' is a thickset, robust succulent dwarf tree up to 2.5–3 m tall, with very fat stems with usually well branched rounded crown. The single main trunk and branches are covered with mustard-yellow to olive-green bark peeling in papery semi-translucent sheets. Branches are short, with prominent leaf scars. Leaves are clustered and spirally arranged around the apex ...
