Tee: Love your "Flippin Flapjack". I purchased one about a month ago at Home Depot ... same situation with the not so optimal growing conditions! I think all the growers/vendors pack them tight for shipping and when they reach their destination the garden centers just shove them on and under tables in the same manner. I wonder if they write-off the losses at the end of the month? I've rescued many a plant from both Wal-Mart and Home Depot garden centers over the years; some make it fine, others are just too far gone!

I love succulents but don't have a lot of luck with them during our humid, rainy months. If I took the time to move them under cover during the rainy season I might have more survive and thrive but alas, as I get "older" I'm not such a good plant caretaker at times. I've always loved the Adenium obesum (Desert Rose) but have killed so many that I finally gave up! This is my "Flapjac" plant today. It's wet because we finally got some much needed rain last night!
