Stapelia grandiflora

Goodness, time does get away from you sometimes doesn't it?  I've been a bit quiet lately and do apologise, life has just thrown a few curve balls at me!
I thought I would post a photo of Stapelia grandiflora for you all.  I have a certain fascination with these plants and the flowers are usually spectacular.  This one has big red flowers that are very attractive and they make very nice hanging basket specimens.  Easy to grow from cuttings or seed.  I grow mine under the verandah and keep it frost free during the winter.  It doesn't require much water to keep it looking good.  I usually give mine a feed with a slow release fertiliser in early spring to get it going again, and then the occasional feed with liquid seasol to keep it healthy during the growing season.
Highly recommended!
