Here is an O. japonica that I purchased from Perennial Obsessions a few weeks ago. It seems to have settle right in. I think it is one that I will have to put slug bait out in the winter/spring. I have a feeling the slugs would eat this one, like they did my spinosa.

Wow, that's nice Lynn. Gorgeous colors. I hope the slugs don't get it either.

It is safe until the wet weather arrives this winter. I will put out lots of slug bait and maybe try putting a copper fence around it.

I bought this plant from Shoal Creek Succulents as Orostachys spinosum. when I viewed the photo on their website I could tell it wasn't spinosum. It flowered with no offsets and I tried to collect seed but had no luck. I believe it was O. japonica. What a lovely plant. Japonica is hard to come by.

Mine looks like the first pic so far. Nice to see what it will look like in the future. Is yours ready to bloom soon?

Beautiful Chris.
Mine are looking pretty thin right now. I transplanted them the first part of June.
