I like flowers on that. What does the whole plant look like?

Limited field depth is common in macro mode because the relative distance from each flower to the lens is large, its just a fact of life. Try restricting the aperture (it helps to do this in bright sunny conditions) to get greater depth of field. Or try taking the picture from further away and cropping down, or even take it from further away with digital zoom. You could even try taking it from further away with regular optical zoom, but that usually reduces the field depth even further.

I really like C. tecta! Mine is thinking about blooming for the first time this year, from being a tiny stub 3 years ago. It put up those nifty bud stalks weeks ago, but the buds are developing painfully slowly.

Dear Dawn,

Here's the whole plant - it's in a 2" pot.

That's a 2" pot?!? Amazing! I didn't think these plants were so small. I came this close [] to buying one of these. Now I wish I had.

Thanks Jeff. I like that one. I like crassulas, I might have to get that one. Do you know where I can go to get one?
