Not so far Lynne my only problem is I tend to over water reason I got the moisture meter. Just remember I do not use any kind of chemicals on anything I have. Thanks for all the complements sure makes it nice to have your work admired.

Once again - GORGEOUS!!!

I have tried these in the past indoors, I just remembered. An uncle took me to a wonderful place that specialized in growing them, and he bought me 2 - they got such bad white fly on them, I had to toss them. I, also, do not like to use any chemicals Jimmy!

Our baseboard heating is so very drying, I don't think I'd have a problem with overwatering... but I do tend to favor cacti and succulents for indoors for just that reason.

Thanks for the compliments everyone. Phoebe I almost didn't buy it because I thouhgt that was too high thanks for letting me know I got a bargan. Only reason I bought it is because i had never seen one bloom before and it still is putting on new blooms.
