These include Dorstenias and the caudiciform Ficus species. Most Ficus species can be treated as normal, warm weather tropicals, perhaps adding some extra drainage material to a standard potting soil. The more herbaceous Dorstenias do best in a standard potting soil, while the thick, rigid-stemmed or caudiciform species can be grown in a normal C/S soil. Some extremely specialized species, such as D. gigas, D. foetida, and D. gypsophila, will do best in a very well drained mix high in inorganic material. Lighting is generally part sun/shade with the herbaceous species, and part to full sun with the caudiciform/ rigid-stemmed species.
