Desert Rose
« on: May 10, 2015, 03:26:06 PM »
I was at the flea market last weekend and saw a beautiful blooming desert rose plant.  It was not priced and I did not want to ask the person how much it was going for without knowing what it should go for...any one know?  Anyone try to grow one and is it a lot of work?

They are easy to grow.....but.  I've killed a couple of mine because I left them outside during the wet/chilly winter and they don't like wet feet, especially when it gets chilly....

Thanks Mikey.
I saw a specimen at Lowes today roughly the same size going for $21.  The one at the flea market was actually in better shape.
