@BelovedBirds , Jacin and @TwoCrows , how are your succulents doing?

I think everyone's doing okay. Got another 2 headed one a few days ago

I like Colin better

I do too, I'll just have to find a character that suits it a bit more than the current one I'm working on

@fluffycrow the new succulents look amazing! Grats on getting those rare ones!

Thank you! Hoping I can get some successful germinations next season!

 

[TwoCrows]

Thank you! I'm so happy I got my hands on these. I've been searching for them everywhere, and they're pretty hard to find. After lithops, astrophytum are my favourite genus, and then gymnocalycium, but mostly the variegated ones

Those plants really look rare, but that makes keeping them so much fun!

Indeed! Don't know how rare they are in the US, but over here I can't find them anywhere but the plant expo. Lithops, astrophytum and gymnocalycium will be what I keep adding to my collection, I think. Maybe an odd one out here and there



My research tells me that these guys are more temperamental, but I'm up for the challenge

Picture time!

So you may remember how they looked upon receiving, rough, tired and in the 2" black plastic pots...

Here they are repotted and living outside, they love it!

Golden Moss... (This plant is growing like crazy, he's in a 4.25" pot loves direct sun)

Bear Paws... (3" pot, lots of offshoots, shade lover)

Monathes Polyphlla....(2" pot, slow grower but doing well, loves shade)

String of Pearls....( Very delicate plant and I'm still trying to find the exact light it needs, its a shade lover, but its growing fast, lots of offshoots!)

Sedum Variegated.....(3" pot, slow grower but doing well! Loves the direct sun.)

Some new additions as of last week, ....

Chalk plant in a 4.25" pot

California Sunset in a 4.25" pot ...

My regular cactus are doing well too, I am loving my Barrel cactus and I think my old man cactus has grown an inch already! At the end of summer I will get measurements and photos of all of them.

I think they are considered rare although its so rural out here, everything is rare. I still would like to try Lithops but I would have to order them in line. And yes, these odd succulents are temperamental, I am learning fast these guys are fussy!

They're all looking fabulous! Those pots will last them awhile! Especially the sedum and the golden moss, WOW what a transformation!
