• The dorstenia  foetida is somewhat easy to grow.  It likes bright light, warm temperatures, regular moisture, and well-draining soil.         ***** No shipping to California at this time. ****
• Please fully research plant care. I am not a professional grower. I just love plants.
• These are grown in a green house. They grow faster there but also grow well inside with good lighting.
• Seeds do pop out of the pods, so these are grown in pots and indoors.         
• Plants emit a pungent smell when handling them. They can also irritate the eyes a bit, similar to cutting onion. You may want to wear gloves and or goggles. The strong scent is not there when the plant is not being handled.     

If there is a problem upon arrival, please take a picture(s) and contact me within 48 hours of its delivery.

The base of the plants are small, although the leaves make them look larger. They are growing in a three inch pot. Some or all leaves may die during shipping. It is shipped with little or no soil.

A sample plant was boxed for seven days in a non-air conditioned dark closet. Some leaves were lost. Recovery was noticed on the third day after opening. 

I placed it in lightly watered soil. Not sure if that's what one usually does - research is best.

Thanks for looking and enjoy the dorstenia plant. I like them very much.
