I'm so made up with this Alexandra!
And best of all, temperature reqs. are 13 to 25 deg c. and being a type of succulent it likes to be reasonably dry!

I really don't know how you kept it to yourself. I posted a pic of my two bleeding hearts...have a look.

I first saw a Ceropegia at the botanic gardens in Oxford Amy. Whilst this wasn't cheap, it's a good starting point. If I can keep this happy, then maybe I'll have a go at the more exotic ones!!
