Hi all,
Phil Faulisi gave me a Dorstenia foetida on my trip to his greenhouse. It's kind of like an ant plant, but its a succulent, and does not house ants. Anyways when I got it it had 4 leaves. 3 were really small leaves formed during dormancy. The big one was the newest one, came out 2 weeks ago, Phil told me. This new, large leaf was well for a few days, but now it seems to be curling! I kept it in a moist vivarium with high lighting... DOH!
I just learned that this one is a succulent, and likes low lighting and dry soil. What should I do? I have also noticed a flower bud coming up! Should I put a ziplock bag around the flower once it starts to die, to keep the seed from exploding out?
Any help would be appreciated.
