It is drought resistant and will tolerate a wide range of soils. Hardy to 15 to 20F. Native to Italy. USDA zones 8-10. This is sometimes sold as Centaurea gymnocarpa but that is botanically incorrect, as C. gymnocarpa refers to a rare endangered plant from a small Italian island off of Tuscany.

Bushman's Pipe, Horny Wonder, Condom Plant
This unusual conversation piece produces in abundance strange looking green and white flowers in late summer. It has a unique method of pollination. The tubular 2½ inch flowers are lined inside with downward pointing hairs that temporarily trap insects. They are then released the next day covered with pollen. With thick leafless twining stems, it is best displayed in a hanging basket. Plant in partial shade with a well-draining cactus mix and allow to dry out between waterings. Needs protection from freezing. Native to South Africa. A detailed description of this weird plant can be found at PlantZAfrica.com.
