Not really. I got it last fall, wintered it dry on a south facing windowsill and moved it outside as soon as night time temps were staying over 50°F. I transitioned it to full sun over the course of a couple weeks, and keep it well watered while it's outside. Many Stapeliads are strongly seasonal regarding water, and during their growth phase will handle a lot more water than one would typically give a succulent. Conversely, many will rot if you think too hard about watering them during the winter while they're dormant. I find them a very intriguing family of plants to grow.
