Is that what they made Patula oil from? Patula, Patola, Grandma saida, "smella the oila! It'll hide'a the smaella that crappa you smokink!"

Beautiful "Black Prince" Tarev!

laughter and luffa

Tarev I love the plants! The obesa is really cool!!! Treat the heuf just like your semps...in your photo of Black Prince,
is that your crested semp??? Whatever it is I like it!!

Glad you like them Greg!

The crested succulent is my Echeveria 'Doris Taylor'

Very pretty that one!!! (and all of them of course!)

Thank you

Echeveria 'Black Prince' looks a really nice one.

I agree - I wish I could plant Echeveria in the ground here. I guess most of them melt in the summer ... i have too many plants like that, grrrrr....

Sheryl, even in shade they don't do that well for you there??

Yeah, I was wondering about that too!

Yesterday



Almost ready for the show. I hope I'll not miss it.

Stunning! Love the blue agave.

Justin, you could set up camera on tripod with timer for pics on a regular interval for every hour ...??

Tee, what an amusing new avatar pic!

This batch of Senecio anteuphorbium has been a bunch of sticks for awhile..and usually more active growth and blooms around Fall season.

I moved it a bit in shade this early Spring, hiding beside the Cardboard palm and now it is showing some new growth Finally not just sticks
I wonder if it will try to make some blooms too..anyhow..any new growth is so welcome to see.


My other container with same kind of succulent has more leaves:


So I guess it likes just bright or dappled light, and our temps had gone cooler too so maybe the plants thought it is Fall

This container has some of my new succulents. Echeveria Black Prince and two types of Topsy Turvy, the plain and the crested, , Portulaca molokineinsis and the yellow sedum Ogon.

Very lovely Susan!

Thanks. The only one I know the name of in this shot is Eche Perle Von Nurnberg. The one in the middle lost its leaves over winter. Think it's dead? Any idea on the ID of the other two?



Here's sedum nussbaumerianum Coppertone, Crussula falcate and Eche nodulosa.


This cutting vined out over the winter, then lost its leaves and is now sending up new growth. Any ideas of what it is?

Tarev said: "...any new growth is so welcome to see ..."
True! Yesterday again:




And they are so good ... to eat ...

Oops ... I thought it's about vege garden

Susan, that last photo reminds me of a Sedum sieboldii..this was how it looks like in my garden before:



Lovely new growth Justin I so wanted to plant those. I see some of them growing freely along the fence line in an area near our church..sometimes so tempted to get some
