Thank you they are all beautiful what a stunning collection you have do you keep these in doors.

Sixpence:

All my Desert Roses are grown outdoors, all year. Sometimes I will bring one indoors when it's blooming, however, it can only stay indoors for only 4 or 5 days...as they will start to loose flowers and leaves (because of the lower light intensity).

Thank you for the reply Andy, then they are like the Passiflora then needing light for so many hours a day what a shame.

Sixpence:

Yes, they should have at least 6 to 8 hours of direct warm to hot sunlight a day to bloom well.

Ah, the Desert Rose would love my summer climate then.

That would be impossible for me to ever have one then Andy as we are lucky if we get a decent summer here.

Alexandramou:

Yes, it would love the extreme heat of your climate during summer.

Sixpence:

Cool temps would not initiate buds in Desert Roses.

Thank you Delonix for letting me know that
