So, I got my new Desert Rose in yesterday via UPS from a Nursery in Florida. The pot was split so I ended up repotting it sooner than later. It is real tall, but I did not want to do any pruning yet due to having had to repot. I gave her a little water as that other soil was so dry. And it was not cactus soil. I repotted into the proper soil. So, that is done, but like I mentioned I do not want to push it. It is sitting inside on my plant table in my living room, which is where my plants usually hang out. My other Desert Roses are outside on the table on my patio. I have included a picture of her. Is there any advice on her?
I would appreciate any help on this.
Thank you, Carol

I think it is brave to water a newly repotted succulent plant. I usually wait 2-4 weeks.

I only watered about a cup of uncalcified water due to the way it was in the box and it is doing fine. I am keeping an eye on it. The nursery told me to do it.
