fab pics and such cute babies!

Thank you Arif!

Arif your seedlings are wonderful! You could teach a hybridizong clinic!

Awesome. I really do need to learn more about the grapto plants. There are so many of them, and many crosses. I think it would take a lifetime to get it all figured out.

Patty this is my first time and they are so small that I have to use artificial means to keep an eye on them . I like succulents in general, now the next part will be how to get them through when temps reach 45c. Anything for self torture .
Lynn as far as I can make out and Bev too, Tarev. She is really into the depths of these Graptos.
Something else to bother.

Regards,
Arif.

Wow very cool Arif!!!!

Hi Arif, hope you are well! How funny that it took semp seedlings to make you a "cooing pappa!"

Arif ~ good luck with the bluebottle, you sound like my dad who can not rest if there is one loose in the house!
And how exciting to have the semp seedlings to calm your nerves

Ah Arif, there's always us to give you American sarcasm...or you can give it to us. We can take it....wait, better make it thru tree mail, in case we can't...You have me looking up words at Wikipedia...is that loyalty for you?
So glad something green and growing is making you happy!

I'm the same, I've got a batch of cacti seedlings with I've virtually ignored, and as you'd expect are now virtually dead. Yet I have to check on my baby semps ever day.

I love several of my baby succulents - just didn't keep up on misting or watering them even, but my semps look amazing!

Mine are in clear plastic cups and while the top mulch layer looks quite dry the lower sand layer remains moist. I water them by dipping the cups once every ten days or so. As to misting, every second or third day depends upon the condensation I can see on the domes.
Mine are doing quite well but the growth rate is way to slow. By the time I finish raising them I will also be going, Oh! How cute my babies look
Raising a human child was easier.

Arif.

Will you be doing another batch Arif?

I am getting a few seed packets flown in from Calif. except they seem to have been dispatched via turtles back along with the yapper/bark stopper. That runt of a mutt will drive me around the bends by the time it reaches here.

As to the marks, that is the handiwork of one frustrated Maggy. Their season has started and he is way to young.
Regards,
Arif.

Aw very cute Arif! This type of puppy requires so much exercise! If you're able to keep that up, he'll be a little bit more enjoyable I bet!

Greg ~ I think you should think about expanding your horizons ... Poor Maggy could use your help, I'm sure, and you could visit Arif's other babies as well.

Patty, you must be on cloud nine with iris week? Hope you are enjoying it all. And I hear you will be leaving soon for a wedding...Congrats to you for your daughter's wedding.

Arif he's gorgeous!

I must post pics of my baby semps later - it's their 8 week birthday today and I'm going to thin them out because they are practically crawling over each other.
