Introducing the Persian carpet flower, known as Edithcolea grandis, which is a fascinating species of the Edithcolea genus. Native to Tropical Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, the Persian carpet flower plant is highly sought after by succulent enthusiasts for intricate patterns on its leaves that resemble a Persian rug. 

Apart from the common name Persian Carpet Flower, the  Edithcolea grandis has several other common names such as Starfish Flower, Carrion Flower, and False Cactus. These names are derived from the plant's resemblance to a starfish and the foul odor emitted by its flowers, which attracts pollinators like flies. 


Edithcolea grandicus is a popular plant in many desert gardens worldwide, with a purple-reddish pattern, forming brown to green-brown stems with pickles.

The plant has leafless, decumbent, sharp-toothed branched stems and can grow up to 12 inches long and 2 inches wide.

This bush-shaped plant remains relatively compact, making it suitable for small pots or containers.

The flowers of Edithcolea grandis are one of its most captivating aspects.

During the spring, the star-shaped flowers blooms and have a striking color combination of yellow, maroon, and purple. The flowers have a pungent odor similar to that of rotting meat, which attracts flies for pollination. While the smell may be unpleasant to some, it adds to the plant's unique charm. 

Edithcolea grandis can be propagated through stem cuttings or by seeds. Stem cuttings should be taken during the growing season and allowed to callus before planting in well-draining soil. Seeds can be sown in a mixture of sand and perlite and kept in a warm, sunny location. With proper Edithcolea grandis care, it can grow into a unique and stunning succulent plant that will be a beautiful addition to any collection.   

Watering Needs 

Like other succulents, your Persian Carpet Flower has adapted to survive in dry conditions. As a result, it has low to moderate watering needs. Overwatering can lead to root rot and other issues, so it's best to be cautious. 

To water Persian carpet flowers, it's recommended to allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Before watering, check the moisture level in the soil by inserting your finger about an inch deep. If it feels dry, then it's time to water. But it's better to wait a little while longer if it still feels a little wet. 
Watering should only be done directly on the soil; do not wet the leaves or stems. By doing this, rot and fungal infections may be avoided. 

Light Requirements 

When growing indoors, the Persian carpet flower prefers bright, indirect light. It thrives in a spot where it can receive plenty of bright, filtered sunlight throughout the day. Placing it near a south or west-facing window is usually a good choice. If you don't have access to bright natural light, you can also use artificial grow lights, specifically designed for indoor plants, to provide the necessary light. 

If you are growing outdoors, Edithcolea grandis loves basking in the sun. It thrives in full sun to partial shade, so it's ideal to place it in a location where it can receive at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight each day. However, it's important to note that this plant can be sensitive to intense, scorching sunlight, especially during the hottest hours of the day. So, if you live in an area with extremely hot summers, providing light shade during the peak afternoon hours can be beneficial. 

Remember, finding the right balance of light is essential for the health and growth of your succulent plant. Observing how your plant responds to different light conditions and making adjustments accordingly will help you create the perfect environment for it to thrive. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Persian carpet flower plant prefers sandy, well-drained soil, as excess moisture in regular potting soil can promote root and stem rot. Planet Desert specializes in succulents and has specialized succulent potting soil that includes an organic substrate with mycorrhizae to help with the growth of a healthy root system to help your succulents thrive. As an okay alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil. 

As for fertilizing, Edithcolea grandis doesn't require heavy feeding. A balanced (5-10-5), water-soluble NPK fertilizer formulated for succulents can be applied during the growing season, which is typically spring. To determine the appropriate dilution ratio and application frequency, refer to the fertilizer's packaging instructions. Remember, it's always better to under-fertilize than to over-fertilize, as succulents are sensitive to excess nutrients. 

A general guideline is to fertilize Edithcolea grandis once a year during the active growing season. During the dormant period in fall and winter, it's best to avoid fertilizing altogether, as the plant's growth slows down. 

Hardiness Zones & More

When growing indoors, the Edithcolea grandis prefers warm temperatures similar to its native habitat. It thrives in average room temperatures ranging from 65°F to 75°F. It's important to avoid exposing the plant to extreme temperature fluctuations and drafts, as it can be sensitive to sudden changes. Maintaining a stable and comfortable indoor temperature will help keep your Persian carpet flower happy and healthy. 

For outdoor cultivation, the Persian carpet flower Edithcolea grandis is generally well-suitable for USDA hardiness zones 10 to 11, which are characterized by mild to warm temperatures year-round. However, it's important to protect it from prolonged exposure to temperatures below 50°F or frost, as it can be sensitive to cold. 

If you live in a colder climate, you can still enjoy the beauty of a Persian carpet flower by growing it as a houseplant or in containers that can be moved indoors during the colder months. This way, you can provide the necessary warmth and protection to ensure its survival. 

The Persian carpet flower prefers low to moderate humidity levels, similar to the arid conditions of its native habitat. It can tolerate average household humidity levels, but it's important to avoid excessively humid environments, as this can lead to issues such as fungal diseases. 

Final Thoughts 

Overall, the Persian Carpet Flower (Edithcolea grandis) is a stunning succulent with unique features that make it a standout in any collection. Its star-shaped rosette of fleshy, spiny stems gives it a carpet-like appearance, hence the name. The vibrant yellow, maroon, and purple flowers add a striking touch, although their smell may not be for everyone. To care for Edithcolea grandis, provide it with plenty of sunlight and well-draining soil. Water sparingly and avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. This fascinating plant is sure to be a conversation starter and a beautiful addition to any succulent garden. 

We think you will love this plant – order your very own Persian carpet flower today and start enjoying its beauty in no time!

Powerful, Convenient, and Worth Every Penny
Color: Black
This frother is exactly what I needed to take my morning coffee to the next level. It’s powerful, easy to use, and the fact that it’s USB-C rechargeable is a total win. ☕ Smooth, Frothy Results in Seconds It whips up foam quickly and consistently, whether I’m using regular milk, oat milk, or blending bulletproof coffee. The speed settings make it easy to control the froth level, and it’s strong enough to mix protein powders and other drinks too. 🔋 Rechargeable & Long-Lasting One charge lasts a surprisingly long time — I’ve used it daily for over a week without needing to plug it in again. The USB-C charging is super convenient and charges it fast. 🧼 Easy to Clean & Maintain Cleanup is a breeze. Just rinse the whisk head under warm water immediately after use and it’s good to go. The extra whisk head is a nice bonus in case you ever need a backup. ✅ Pros: Strong frothing power with multiple speeds USB-C rechargeable with great battery life Easy one-button control Includes a backup whisk head Quiet, efficient, and compact ❌ Cons: Doesn’t include a stand (but that’s clearly noted and not an issue for me) Overall: This frother delivers on everything — performance, convenience, and durability. If you want café-quality drinks at home without breaking the bank, this is a solid pick.

Great Frother
Color: Black
Before I purchase anything, I like to reach out to the seller first and find out more about the warranty. Elisa responded very quickly and explained the warranty to me. She also told me how to register my frother once I received it. My frother was delivered in the evening so I used it the following day. I didn't need to charge it because it already had a charge. It was easy to use and frothed my 2% milk and my flavored creamer perfectly. I am very happy with it, so far. To sum it up: 1) Elisa was responsive and genuinely seemed to care about her customers, which gave me confidence in making this purchase. 2) Frother works great with milk and milk products. 3) I'm glad I won't have to be replacing batteries. All I have to do is plug it in and I'll be good to go. Plus, the charging cord comes with it. If you are having doubts let me reassure you, you won't be sorry if you purchase it. I really think you'll like it. Edit #1: I have had this frother for less than 6 months. This is the 2nd time I have had to charge it; pretty impressive, huh? Each charge lasted for about 2 months! Unfortunately, when I went to use it the following day it was completely dead. The charge did not hold and I was unable to use it. I have read reviews about this happening, but, like most people, I didn't think it would happen to me. Well, it did. I contacted the seller and I will update with the end result. I really do like this frother and I am hoping the seller will do the right thing. Edit #2: I received the new frother within a week. Like the previous one, it came with a charge. Elisa, the customer service rep, was responsive, which I appreciated. It's nice to have my frothy coffee again; I really missed it. I hope this frother lasts longer than 6 months, but if it doesn't, I hope Elisa will help me again. So, in a nutshell, this company offers great customer service and backs up their product. Fingers crossed I won't have to reach out to them again concerning a frother that won't charge.

Beyond worth it!
Color: Black
Before this, I used battery powered frothers and couldn’t keep up with replacing the batteries. As soon as the batteries began to lose their charge, the frothers weren’t powerful enough. Somehow, this doesn’t begin to lose its charge until the charge runs out. I’ve spent a fraction of the price buying this as I did on batteries. I got this in Aug 2024. It’s amazing and incredibly powerful. In a year, I charged it 3 times. If you don’t get the froth you’re looking for, I’d suggest you watch a video on how to froth correctly. I learned there’s a proper technique that really improves the outcome. It made a world of difference for me. The charge time advertised is not correct. It lasts much much much longer on one charge. After the charge died, I charged it for maybe an hour and then I used it to whisk thick body butter. When washing it, I got it too wet. The motor wouldn’t stop running, so I called it a loss and put it outside to let it run until it stopped. It ran for hours. Sometime during the night it shut off. The next day, I pressed the on button again and it ran the entire day. It has a warranty, but I never registered mine, so I don’t mind paying for a replacement since it is so inexpensive. I’m writing this review now because I liked it so much that I just purchased another one to replace it. I hope this helps. If you’re unsure: It is incredibly powerful, but has two speeds, so one will work for any frothing needs. The price is unbeatable, much less than you’ll spend on batteries. The charge lasts unbelievably long and stays just as powerful until the charge runs out. It is detachable, so washing it is really simple. Just wipe the top part.

Mostly good, with one design flaw - See Update - Five stars for new version!
Color: White
*I bumped my rating from 3 to 4 stars because of the customer service. The seller's response to customer reviews is excellent. This particular model (MF05) still gets 3 stars from me, but the new version (MF09) is definitely a 5 star product. See update below.* Second Update: I received the new version (FoodVille MF09), and really like it. It solves the variable speed problem. Three speeds are still available, however, each has its own on/off switch, so no more cycling through. It also comes with an additional hook attachment for mixing powders with liquid, as well as a charging stand. It is a few dollars more, but most definitely worth it! Buy the MF09 version, https://amazon.com/FoodVille-Rechargeable-Stainless-Cappuccino-Bulletproof/dp/B0872RLB4V/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=foodville+mf09&qid=1595520925&sr=8-1 I recommend buying from this seller (FoodVille). They are very attentive and customer oriented. I will be leaving a 5 star review for that frother! Update: FoodVille contacted me to let me know they have a new version of this frother that addresses the variable speed issue I've complained about. They are sending me the new frother, and I will post a review on the updated version soon. The new version is FoodVille MF09, so be sure to check it out as it sounds better than the MF05 I have purchased and reviewed here. In addition to fixing the speed issue, they have included a charging dock. I've had this frother for a few months now. Overall, it works as well as my Aerolatte hand-held that died. I like that it is rechargeable, since I went through quite a lot of batteries before. My problem with this is the way you have to cycle through the speeds, rather than just selecting the one you want. This is a problem because sometimes I'll need to stop it before I'm finished and then when I resume it is on the next faster speed, which causes the milk to fly out of the glass before I can get back to the lower setting. I have ruined at least one shirt with stains from the flying milk. Also, because of where the on/off button is, and because of its sensitivity, I sometimes turn it off accidentally, which of course causes the milk to slosh everywhere getting back to the lower setting. I really wish you could just pick a speed, even if that means just a high and a low. I'm thinking of going back to a single speed frother. All but the lowest speed seems to be too strong to froth milk anyway. So, it works, it has good battery life, but cycling through the speeds has been a problem for me. I'll keep using it for now, but may be in the market for something different soon.

Perfect for home baristas
Color: White
I recently purchased this milk frother, and it has completely elevated my daily coffee routine. It’s incredibly easy to use—just pour in your milk, press a button, and within seconds you have perfectly smooth, creamy foam. Whether I’m making a latte, cappuccino, or even a matcha, the texture comes out consistently rich and velvety every time. What I love most is how quiet and fast it is compared to other frothers I’ve tried. It heats the milk evenly without burning it, and the foam holds its shape beautifully. Cleanup is also a breeze thanks to the non-stick interior—just a quick rinse and wipe, and it’s ready to go again. The design is sleek and compact, so it doesn’t take up much counter space, and it looks great next to my coffee setup. Overall, this frother delivers excellent performance, convenience, and quality. I’d highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys café-style drinks at home.
