How are others' colors doing?


Fall color isn't just for shrubs and trees. Succulents have great ๐Ÿ‘ softer ๐Ÿ‘ fall muted jewel colors. Looks like a mini tapestry of color and textures . Beautiful ๐Ÿ˜.

I'm glad you enjoyed them, Becky, thank you! : )

Alice, those are adorable! I have trouble with Semps dying over summer too. Over winter they get beautiful colors, when they're still alive for it.

Tiffany, I moved my semps to a table surrounded by trees, only dappled sunlight, and I sprinkle the trees but covered the semps with plastic, so they didn't get too wet, but it was 15 degrees cooler in that shady pot and they got very occasionaly dappled sun. Moved them back to part sun in mid October I think. Red Zinger doesn't like Texas, I lost a couple more, but overall more lived than I expected

Your semps sound very loved. Hope they are appreciative!

I think those are pottery shells. Our BBS sells pots shaped like shells.

It is a pottery shell. I like it, but not an efficient use of space. I have got to clean my porch. A lot doesn't get done when I am gone to work but probably no work for the rest of November so I've applied for a part time job

When I first started gardening, I thought I wanted purple flowers. But what I really love now is purple foliage. Even if it's tiny.

I love mine and it started as a clearance many years ago. And just from constant propagation I have accumulated and gifted a lot. But mine turns maroonish green.

I get a whole range of colors on that plant, depending on where they are. The plant in that pic was inside right by a S window. The outside plants are mostly bright red right now.
