Description
Cynanchum macrolobum grows to about 1.3 feet tall, growing as a branching cluster of succulent stems that are near-leafless and covered in waxy, grey, wrinkled skin. Flowers are small and brown. The plant can look impressively surreal when grown alone in a shallow pot.[1]

gollark: I dislike your function's signatures, apioformoid.
gollark: Haskell programs apparently just allocate a terabyte of virtual memory on start and *they* work fine.
gollark: Just do `malloc(INT_MAX)` to avoid reallocation later and increase simplicity.
