This Echeveria is a survivor. I planted it a few years ago in the hottest part of my yard. It struggled for a couple of years, but never gave up. Now it's looking better than ever after another long hot summer. 🌱

#Echeveria #plantsky #gardening
A group of small and round Echeveria florets. Possibly a hybrid of an E. secunda. It is blue green inside and orange on the outer leaves from the sun.

I just noticed the first tiny yellow flower popped up on my Astridia velutina. It's doing well after three seasons in the front garden and am hoping for a lot for more flowers this year. 🌱

#MacroMonday #succulents #gardensky
An Astridia Velutina planted in a garden. It has tiny angular leaves that are thick with stored water. There's a single yellow flower that's slightly larger than the leaves around it.

I got it at Home Depot and it's been a prolific bloomer. Highly recommend.

Nice! Yours sounds happy alright. This one has only flowered in the spring months so was pleasantly surprised to see a flower.

A flower in late October? This four year old Echinopsis "torch cactus" is full of surprises.

Possibly, but you're so right. This one lives mostly on rainwater.

They do get mostly black later, but the red lasts for weeks.

No matter what the final explanation is, their marketing worked since we're still talking about them!

Here's another mature and impressive succulent from the private garden tour. A six foot tall Aloe ferox with its older leaves left intact to protect the stem from the sun. 🌱

My cactus and succulent club recently toured the private garden of one of our members. He had several of these 30-40 year old Ferocactus. What an amazing plant! 🌵

#Cactus #Succulents #flowers
A large Ferocactus. Possibly a F. Wislizeni. It is 3-4' talk with rows id deep ridges covered in spines. The top is covered in spent flower buds with several open orange, yellow and red flowers.
