Re: How to care for Senecio tamoides ?



It sounds to me like it might be infected with
something, and the plant can be easily rooted from a
healthy cutting taken from a part of the plant which
is not so affected, but you might want to start
several new cuttings as soon as possible.  It is also
fairly easy from seed, if it had already set some.  I
have been growing the plant for several years, and
love it's abundant fall/winter bloom, but have also
noticed that it can seem to just"up and die" after
several years of perfectly happy growth.  
Alternatively, you might try just cutting it back
hard, and see if it gives you some new growth...
