March 2016 blooms

March certainly arrived here like a lion, with cold temps and wind and snow...what is blooming for you now?

I have only couple bloomers, with few plants budding - hope they will open soon. (Excuse the bad photo...my camera gave up and mobile isn't far behind :)

Echeveria purpusorum:


Euphorbia leuconera keeps blooming:

    My small noid cactus has a tiny flower open today and a bunch of buds.

  • 10 years ago

    I hope that you get an ID on this. I have a piece of a plant that looks like this that was given to me by a 96 year old shut-in. He said he has had it for 30-40 years. I just noticed a couple of blooms yesterday that look like yours.

    There are some really nice blooms here!

    Rina - Here's my Kalanchoe Eriophylla blooming.. I'll try to get a clearer pic in the day light again..

    Got one from what I believe Rina correctly ID'd as portulaca oleracea.

    Bernard - that is very pretty bloom! I like that kalanchoe.

    Laura, nice bloom - should have many more (hope that is correct ID :)

    Graptopetalum paraguayense is easy to grow and is regular in flowering.

    As i was checking on my plants today I noticed a teeny tiny flower bud. I'm excited to see what the flower looks like as its the first time this has flowered since getting the cutting and i'm not even sure what it is! I'm thinking its a huernia of some kind so hopefully will be able to properly identify once the bud opens. Its been very happy recently and sent up a lot of new growth over the past month.

    In the last bloom thread I'd posted some Blue Pearl that was about to bloom and someone requested a picture when they open... Well, here they are.

    Beautiful flowers.


    Here, a Graptopetalum hybrid, don't know what is it.

    And a Crassula:

  • 10 years ago

    Cristina your Crassula blooms are GORGEOUS!! Are those Springtime?

  • 10 years ago

    Thanks, Bernard :-)
    Yes, it is. Is the first time that it blooms and is full of buds.
    I'll take another picture to show it better.

  • 10 years ago

    Rhipsalidopsis gaertneri (Easter Cactus)

  • 10 years ago

    Cristina - Your Springtime flowers look fantastic. Graptopetalum flower is really neat too.

    Akrrm - Really like that colour shade.

    This one was just closing up for the day so I didn't have enough time to take out my camera (phone pictures only instead).

    Faucaria felina - It's not fall, but I'm okay with this.

    Crassula 'Morgan's Beauty' - Up close.

    Crassula 'Morgan's Beauty' - Flowers in development.

    Not mine, but found on the Apache Trail - Dudleya saxosa v. collomiae.

    I had planted this at least 5 years ago. AFAIK, this is its first flower, not yet open. Homalocephala / Echinocactus texensis

  • 10 years ago

    Then there's this old thing, Aloe vera flowers.

    And this even older thing, the Ocotillo (Fouquieria splendens) just about ready to open.

    The death knell sounds for this one.

    But there's lot of time for this one yet.

    As long as no one bothers it.

    Nice proponents of Spring blooming for you, Rina.
    Bernard, that's a cute little white flower on the kalanchoe. Great job on the baby toes. It looks very happy.
    Succulentlife, love the minis and their charming little flower.
    Ewwmayo, always a soft spot for those variegated haworthias. Great little Morgan and the lilliputian gastric IS cute.

    Love what Spring brings to everyones yard!!!

    My group of Pachyphytum oviferum are all throwing out some spikes.

    First time I see the flowers of K. farinacea. Mine hasn't bloom. Very beautiful.

  • 10 years ago

    My Schizobasis intricata are developing seed pods. I've harvested some and started germinating them. Strange that they grow indoors with no polinators but yet still manage to pollinate their flowers producing seeds.

  • 10 years ago

    succulentlife - Nice picture of the pineapple! Great pictures, everyone!

    My white Desert Rose is in bloom.

    Here's a close up - unfortunately, after it rained!

    Crenda - Not unfortunately, the droplets are a legit photo technique. Nicely done!

    Just a couple more, Graptopetalum superbum and Echinocactus grusonii.
