My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Echeveria excessiveness

10 years ago

A few years ago I told myself I would not collect Echeverias because they etiolate over winter and I have to behead and start over each spring..... Then I got a growlight.... Today after a few Echeveria discussions on the thread I went out to check on a few of mine, and realized I officially have an Echeveria collection (no, not an obsession!). For now they are mostly in 2 inch pots , but it is still going to be a tight squeeze to get them all indoors this winter without too much etiolation!

Can I name them all? Not off the top of my head!!! And yes, a few are Graptopetalums or Graptoverias...

    Breton: I hear you there. 2 cold nights and then it will warm back up thank goodness--but I'm wondering where all the cacti are going to go in 5 weeks. I repotted a bunch of them and now they take up a bigger footprint :-(

    Some really raggedy ones are going to the garden in the sky--but there aren't very many of those. My son lives in Vegas and he's buying a house with a big yard, some of them could be planted there--too bad he hates cacti.
