S. alata seems to be able to take a lot of abuse. It probably has to do with coming from a drier part of the country.
 
Hey guys I thought I would just throw this one in for fun, although that doesn't mean I'm not competing;).

here's my H. minor:

With make-shift snow hat. It's real snow hat was too tall and fell off.

And here is a much shorter leaf on the same growing point.

Alata is quickly turning into one of my favorite sarrs and that one is so purdy. :) Nice snow hat

It is becoming one of my favorites as well! I have two new alatas on the way actually and I am hoping for two more before the year ends. I love snow hats!

They look good even in dormancy:clap:. Awesome growing. I love seeing sarrs in the snow.

Thank you!! I thought you guys might like snowy sarrs.
 
My burmanni humpty doo also dews great. Best of all of my plants and the easiest to grow for me :). Heres my submission.
