Hi there.
I've been growing two desert roses from seed. They were planted a couple months ago, and about week or two apart. The one planted the week or two later seems to be doing much better than the one planted first. I don't understand why, they're both planted in the same soil, and are next to each other on the window sill so see the same light and heat conditions. The only diference is the pots they're planted in; the one growing better is in a plastic pot, the other a clay pot. I've noticed I've had to water the one in the clay pot more often to prevent the soil from drying out. Could this be the reason?

The one doing better is quite a bit taller (though is a little thinner), more leaves, and the leaves seem a bit fleshier/thicker, and are also lighter in colour. Could it be possible that they're diferent variations of desert roses?

I have attacted pictures...
