This publication presents a comprehensive taxonomic monograph of the genus Pachypodium, based on extensive studies of herbarium specimens, living plants, habitats, and ecological preferences of its species. It includes a detailed chapter on cultivation, highlighting successful artificial propagation achieved through careful simulation of natural ecological conditions.Written by Rapanarivo with valuable contributions from plant explorer Lavranos and Apocynaceae specialist Leeuwenberg, the monograph provides a modern revision of earlier taxonomic works and recognizes 23 currently distinguished species. All species have ornamental value, and many are considered threatened in the wild. The study emphasizes that sustainable commercial use can be achieved through seed propagation, allowing trade while reducing pressure on natural populations.
