Just a photo update of my Aeonium arboreum as it continues to develop the buds..the leaves has noticeably gone smaller, dropping the other exterior leaves as it continues to redirect its energy to the continued formation of the flower buds. We had some recent strong winds and cool down which slowed down the growth, but now we are back to calmer, warmer days, which hopefully helps the plant a little more.
This side gets the sun to the south, so it has stronger bud formation:
This side is to the north side, so the bud formation is a bit slower, and smaller:
