I want to say Senecio somebody or other...

Senecio stapeliaeformis v. minor!

Thank you so much! I got one small wimpy 3" stem about 4 years ago and it's done all that in a drilled out coffee mug, in the same soil :/. Now I'm fully motivated to give it a better life. Holler at me in spring if you'd like a nice cutting! They've rooted effortlessly wherever I've stuck loose offshoots, and those look much more vigorous than this particular planting.

Like a Stapelia, but it's not! Nice-looking plant.

Dorkstenia (love your name!)

I would love a piece in spring, but am in Canada. Where in the world are you???

happy growing

If the piece is in the States, B, it could be sent to me when I'm there in the spring. I am your Senecio enabler.

:)

Just last week, I impulsively bought about 20 plants in North Carolina during vacation and brought them home as carry on-- all the way to texas. Only one skipped a beat.

Plants will travel.

Thank Jeff! You are a plant enabler extraordinaire!

Dorksenia, that sounds like my kind of plant shopping- impulsive!! Cart jumpers rule!

so, we must touch base in spring! Seems very far away right now!!!

happy growing!

Just keep in mind that I'm in Austin, Texas. Odds are, my spring begins earlier than yours. Actually, most of our winter is spring-like. Whereabouts are you or where would I be shipping? And what month would your conditions be suitable for a new plant pet to settle in?

d,

You'd send it to me in Arizona (and maybe just one for myself too, if I may) and I'll bring them to British Columbia, whereupon I'd send it to B in Nova Scotia. This way you won't have to send them internationally, which is a PITA. If you want some plants from here I can do that, too.

Thanks Jeff! We will be in touch in the spring! It is probably late May before I would risk anything live in the mail here!

Sounds fun, guys! If you shout a few weeks before ideal shipping time, I can give you ideas about what else I've got that needs adoption. I love the idea that my little guys will travel to far away places and end up in the hands of plant lovers. And anything that fares well in Arizona would do great here effortlessly. Cheers!
