Gosh Mel, what do I do?

Repot annually, keep them at about 10c in winter, grow them in full sun, regular watering in season with quarter strength feed every time.

Prayer might also help, don’t look at them the wrong way and accept you’ll lose them from time to time. It’s in their nature.

Mike,
You're the second person I've heard say "Gosh" in the last 2 days, other than that it takes me back to my teen years, which was some time ago! They proberly (is that a word) use another 4 letter word now, my poor education is showing...

Thanks for the advice I'll see what I can do, I do bring them indoors for the Winter, Stapelias seem to burn! in full sun, and I've had them ROT too.
