Sedum adolphii 'Firestorm'

Here is a duvalia that flowered today. I’m not sure the exact type since it was a gift sent a few months ago. But it’s got a strange rubbery texture that I like.

Hope everybody and their plants are ok up north!! Gloomy and rainy here so time to post some pics...

Turbinicarpus schmiedickeanus

Titanopsis hugo-schlechteri

Lewisia "Elise"

That Massonia depressa finally opened up, somewhat...well, better than before, just needed some sun :)

Bonus pic, not CS but nice fungus taking over an old tree stump

The Massonia appears to have gone to seed.

Most excellent! I'll be glad to get some,if there are some to get.

hmmm, I may have missed when the flower actually first opened, maybe over the Christmas break as I was out of town for a couple of weeks. Pollination is done with the help of small rodents in their habitat. It will be a surprise to see seeds as the plant was not outside during that time. But who knows what happened. Will be happy to distribute when the time comes. will keep you posted Rob!

Aloe cameronii

Maybe echeveria Agavoides rubra?

echeveria Apus second time flowering. These flower stalks are very short.

My regular bloomer: this is today.

Well watered & in good light, it doers't care that it's Feb.

E. milii x marlotti.

A less frequent bloomer: E. francoisii.

I like francoisii's leaf variability, they're all different.

My Cucurbita flowering this morning shame not got male flower open to would have been tasty

Okay, a Bit of Topic But Look What I've got on My Poinsettia!!!

I have 2 So HOPEFULLY I'll get at Least 1 Fertile seed that'll Sprout.....

Hoya carnosa

:)

Pachypodium brevicaule

People consider it weed here in Florida, but I love it for the color. Portulaca pilosa.

Echeveria 'Cris' A HD 3 for $10 plant back in December Tiny thing as rosette is in a 5 cm pot.

Aloe ferox, white flowered version

Aloe aculeata. Interesting that as the flower opens it becomes much larger in diameter as well as length.

Agave marmorata continues its ascent. My neighbor said, "Hey, you have grown the world's largest asparagus!"

That white A. ferox is great!

Certainly agree on the ferox. The red anthers against the creamy white corolla is spectacular.

First color of the year: Crassula Morgans beauty

I’m really pleased with the number of blooms on ferrocactus macrodiscus. We’ve gotten a great deal of rain...risky business but seems ok. I’ll shelter it before the next storm

I don’t know he name of this common one. So easy to grow.

A little update

I've had this one for just over a year. First time flowering but forgot the name.. ?

Dog, I broke down and bought a P. brevicaule at the show. I have killed them twice in the past. Will you tell me what soil you use? I also need to know how you water yours, Ex. in leaf/flower vs. no leaves/flowers. Lastly, how much sun do you give yours. Thanks. I have photos of show plants if interested.

Lots of Tc’s in bloom, many buds too.

aloe white stag

It's been raining so much here lately that it's been difficult for me to photograph, but then I don't have that much anyway. Some plants seem to be blooming a bit late, but here's one of my Kalanchoe daigremontiana, which I have relegated to the front yard:

And here is my dark colored Aeoniumwhich blooms a bit later than my other Aeonium. As you can see, the aloe is putting out buds, but they might not open until next month.

3.5 year old from seed, first time flowering..

I have it labeled as Mammilaria spinosissoma, but I get sometimes sloppy when collecting seeds, so it might not be correct..

Flowers finally started opening on this aloe, which is the most prolific one I have. When I go down streets in my neighborhood, I see many more and varied aloes already in full bloom, and so I'm not sure why mine are behind. I do have a lot of buds on some different ones that should be open by next month.

Whaaaat, three flower spikes now!! Last summer it didn't even do that never mind in the winter LOL. This E. Apus was outside until mid January but still has nice colours being in a south facing window with no additional light.

Brendan, what are you plants growing in? What is that white stuff in your pots. Pretty.

Thanks! Just pure perlite, it’s nice looking but really dusty. Pretty cheap too if you get it at a big box store

my first Peperomia ferreyrae flower..

Mammilaria and Vanda orchid

Do you grow that orchid in semi-hydro?

No Rina, it usually hangs with free roots on the glass doors. Once I notice the flower buds, I place all the roots inside a ceramic pot gently without any medium and spray roots daily with a rainwater. It’s been working for me like a clock.

A Bulbine sp.

Aloe excelsa

Yellow flowered Aloe arborescens

Kalanchoe dbl

Cc

Euphorbia milli never stops flowering, so I always feel like a cheater when I mention it.. Kalanchoe farinacea was seriously etiolated last year, so I cut off 3 cuttings, 2 of which are flowering. Kalanchoe blossfeldiana has been going on for 3rd month already.. And the last is my beautifullay smelling orchid Dendrobium nobile cutting 3 years old that is flowering for the first time. When I received 3 cuttings, I had no expectations, or knew about smell, but here I am 3 years later with 3 blooming pots..
