Remember those new succulents we bought a few weeks ago? I want to show you some of them. They are amazing.
This Eschevería is called a Topsy Turvy, because its leaves appear upside down, while curling upwards. Amazing, is it not?
This one, one of my favorites, is called an Aeonium Kiwi, and requires almost no water, even in its growing season. I will really have to watch out with this one.
We have a couple of different varieties of this, but this one, in particular, is called Pale Stonecrop. This is a more mature plant, like the piece I reallocated from the neighbors storage unit last month. For fifty cents, you cannot beat it.
This one is sometimes called a starfish plant, starfish cactus, or carrion cactus, and has small star shaped flowers that send off some sort of smell to attract insects that will help pollinate it. I found it absolutely intriguing. Do you see the flower getting ready to bloom, on the left? I will show you what the flower may look like.
The flowers are not as attractive as the Flamingo lily, that is for sure, but they are only there to attract insects for pollination. Evidently, they are the perfect color, and design for them.
I will continue to record the progress of any plants that survive my machinations, as well as those that do not. For now, however, the stairs are calling me. I. Must. Go.
Stay happy, stay healthy, stay safe. Wash your hands, cover your mouth, and protect your loved ones.
