Flapjack
Also commonly known as paddle plant, the flapjack succulent is so called because of the paddle or clam-like shape of its leaves that form in rosette clusters. I guess also a reference to the flat, dense cakes made of oats, honey and melted butter.
The wide, thick, fleshy leaves can take on a striking orange/red tinge around the edges, as seen here. An erect stalk of up to 1 m can be produced out of the basal rosette of leaves, at the end, an inflorescence of yellow flowers.
Native to South Africa and Botswana regions.
