We had the rainiest December and early January I've experienced in my short twenty some years here on this little island of St. Croix. More than half of my plants went dormant! Never happened before, tho' I've only been growing these buggars for 5 or 6 years, seems like a lifetime.

Deebie, the plants would have been fine if they were on a slope, good drainage is the key.

Jim, I will air-layer a few stems of a big white that Wilfred sent me long ago. It blooms like mad, and I got seed pods, too. I'll send you one in a couple of months.

A fellow named Anucha worked for an adenium nursery in Thailand, and he was repotting every four months!

A nurseryman in India grows huge caudexi caudexes in three years. Lots of food, but he's in a truly tropical, with lots of heat and lots of rich soil.
