KristyLee Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 This is such a great thread, I just had to post (this is my first post) I have gotten pretty heavily into Stapeliads the last couple of years. I have a long suffering Gigantea that refuses to grow, or bud, or die. It has seriously just sat there for about a year. Can anyone advise me on when they are supposed to grow, so i might be able to pump some fertiliser into it at the right time?It sits right next to a Grandiflora that is right now putting out about 6 new shoots, and just looks amazing. I have a few photos taken last summer, a few are a little bigger now. The only thing that damn Gigantea has done, is that it now stands upright, when this picture was taken i had just got it from a cutting.

KristyLee Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Oh and a quick question to those more knowledgeable than I...Are Stapelia Nobilis and Gigantea the same plant? I have googled it and apparently they are the same, but for some reason I understood them to be different. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stillman Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Suposed to be the same nobilis has a yellow flower but? If you got any of the yellow flowering I'll trade you a cutting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theuserformallyknownasd00d Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Noticed this crest on one of my Stapelia variegata plants. I'll let it grow then try grafting a few peices to ceropegia woodii. Are the crests still fairly un common like it was sugested a few years ago?
