'''''Trichodiadema''''' is a [[genus]] of [[succulent plant]]s of the family [[Aizoaceae]].
The name "Trichodiadema" comes from the ancient greek "thrix" (=silk) and "diadema" (=crown)
They come from [[Cape Province]] in [[South Africa]].
Small short-stemmed succulent with stretched alternating small items of 0.8 cm long. They are grey and green.
At the apex of articles are small bristles radiating around the center giving the appearance of a cactus areole.
The flowers look like daisies, but with petals dark red, worth the nickname "Desert Rose".
