Stapelia stand still

Post by Salazar »

I was wondering if anyone has experienced this: my Stapelia gigantea has not grown any vegetative of floral growth at all since it bloomed a month ago.
What could be the cause?

Hi Salazar, I don't think a month without growing means that there is some kind of problem. Probably after blooming it needs some time to get sufficient energy to grow. Just wait some more time and see what happens.

Thanks! I'll give it some more time to see if there isn't anything wrong.

I agree. My Stapelias slow down growth after blooming also. Especially after a good flush of those huge flowers.
