- Make sure your desert rose roots are submerged with some potting mix. 

- Do not water your desert rose after potting!

- Place your repotted desert rose under a bush or tree for shade for 2 weeks, no direct sun. Rain is the best for them but if there is no rain after one week you can mist them early in the morning or when the sun is going down. 

- After two weeks slowly introduce the desert rose to direct sun. Morning sun is the best! They do better with 6 hours of sun only during the hot summer days or they can burn.

- Never place your desert rose on cement make sure it's placed on bricks, rocks or a plant stand to allow the water to drain out.

- Never repot in extreme hot weather 89 degrees or higher or in the extreme cold weather.
