Ceropegia Simonae green form

What is there not to like about a plant that looks like a lizard!!
Ceropegia Simonae (simoneae) green form is another from Madagascar.
I have had this plant for about 4 months and over winter and it has grown about a thumb in length since then, in fact the new growth was from where the leaves start.

Unfortunately, I lost this one by over watering and not having a good draining soil, I will learn!!

No problem, I will as add more pics when I receive my new batch of these and hopefully get them in flower.
There is a whole range of grungy thick and pointy ceropegia out there and I hope to have most of them arriving in the next couple of months.Totally different to the more common Sandersonii type.( just hard work tracking them down!)
