Chris, the plant will form seed at the flower site too. A friend of mine has several very large plants. (they get huge) He had one go to seed after blooming (they don't die after forming seeds) and planted a bunch of the seed. They all grew and he was giving away desert rose to anyone who would take them. I have several. I don't put them in bonsai pots but just keep them in large nursery pots and pretty much ignore them. They seem to be happier that way. You can prune them back heavily during the growing season. They also start from cuttings, but the difference in the plants are that the ones started from cuttings don't get the huge, very fat base that the seedlings do....so I was told by my friend. I did do some cuttings and it seems to be so. I also have been warned that the "milk" they ooze when cut, is very poisonus. So wash your hands good and becareful.
Sincerely, Susieq
