succulent

Last fall / winter I put many of Mexican pings at a west facing window sill that draws the cold from the outside. The leaves became succulent, responding to the cold, dryness, and lower photoperiod. I moved them all back to the rack, which gets southern exposure, along with a fluorescent...

Euphorbia platyclada A lovely pink stick - in "growth"! What looks like algae or moss patches on it are apparently the photosynthetic parts. Tylecodon bucholtziana Another stick! It bloomed just before I got it, I had the pleasure of picking off the dried flowers. It puts out small bright...

This auction has been donated by Steph, ghost of the NASC Meetings. She sits in a chair in the corner, ocassionally disrupts, sometimes offers a suggestion or asks a question, but moooooooosssssstlly behaves. Sort of. But her kind and generous heart wanted to donate something so this is it...

Here's a photo tour of a strange succulent genus called Adromischus that I've been collecting. A botanist named Tolken (!) put them in with Crassula but I think the Adros are way cooler! Adromischus cristatus - you can't see it in the photo but there are aerial roots all up the stalk...

So I went to bed and the succulent plants looked fine but this morning the Aloinopsis malherbei that I got last week had withered. I touched it and it was soft floppy mush. I had not watered it at all so it should not have been over-wet like my Crassula and Kolanchoes who melted on me previously...

I searched and searched and searched but all I could find was this succulent looking thing with all these odd pink flowers :-O P. esseriana this Winter in full bloom. Last Fall ALL of these guys were tucked into ONE of the pots you see pictured! Here are a couple closeups.. Still couldn't...

I got bored today, so I built another shelf to put plants on. I also took a bunch of pictures of my plants (none of the new shelf yet). N. truncata. The label says Pasian, so I guess it's Pasian The truncata's pitcher. I held the ruler about an inch too high, so it's really about 7 inches...

With spring coming up in a few months, I thought I'd start the process of setting up a few trades. I have multiples of some of the plants on my growlist, and am willing to send out leaf pullings of most others. All plants are either deep into or entering their succulent stages, so leaf...

I recently bought a succulent plant that came labeled as jungle crocus. I've searched this name on google and haven't come up with anything. If anyone knows what it is I'd appreciate your help. I've attached a picture. it's the taller plant in the back of the pot.

They aren't really anything yet, just felt like showing them... Sorry the pics are so big. Nepenthes Rajah Nepenthes Truncata Bepenthes Bicalcarata Some kind of succulent I was told

well, i've got these simply beautiful mexican butterwort hybrids from blokeman, thanks bloke ( everyone cheer for bloke now) and they have just got bigger and stickier! i don't know what to do, i'm worried that if they don't go all fleshy, succulent and non sticky soon, they won't make it...

WOOT!! Finaly got my first Titnopsis succulent looks awsome and within the first 2 hrs of it being in the winter grow chamber #2 its first flower bud opened.. I will be repotting it on sunday. and my new Aloe Aristata Montana that just arrived as well. Some of the leafs got alittle bent in...

My Pinguicula Moranesis appears to be producing shorter leaves with no stickyness to them. Is it time for the Mexican pings to go into succulent stage?

I have P. moranensis, P. esseriana and P. cyclosecta. Do these even need to go through a dormancy and produce succulent leaves? My friend grows orchids and I think his P. moranensis is in the same conditions all year and it spreads all over the green house! thanks for the advice.

Well other people can look at it too of course :-P Here is a pic of my Succulent, but now that I look at it, I don't think it's what yours is in your other thread. Yours has white spots, mine has white lines.

I had the most wonderful day out on Saturday, GP_Princess Jen and I went on a run to Traverse City a nice big town about 35 mins away from us, got up there to do some shopping for some plant supplies we needed, pots, orchid mix, tiny rocks and other things, just a fun day out the 2 of us...

Awhile ago I repotted a Nep of mine into a mix of 25% lava, 25% charcoal, 25% sphagnum, and 25% coral. I thought, what's the worst that could happen? There was a thread in another forum that discussed the benefits of putting a thin top layer of coral on top of Nepenthes pots; it was supposed to...
