Aloe next to vending machine on Blvd Lázaro Cárdenas in Cabo San Lucas, a couple of days ago. This was just a couple of blocks from our hotel.

Cabo is the perfect desert climate isn't it? Never a 120f day or night of 90f..not Phoenix or Dubai.

Heck winters days in Cabo can be San Diego summer like!

Got this guy to bloom...

And buds on a few rebutias(magenta one from last year, and one of the november shipment)

Stefan..

After your kind ID on the photo of Rebutia I posted earlier, I got greatly interested in them. That plant is starting a second crop of buds, and I just received an order of 3 new Rebutia plants from Planet Desert which I will post photos of if it ever get sunny here again so I can take one without flash. Hope to get more of these.

Agave marmorata continues skyward

I've never had a succulent bloom, but I think that all of mine are too small still? almost all of them are in pots around 2" diameter.

my(former, now donated) haworthias were about that size, but most of them bloom. Had an echeveria smaller than that, also bloomed. Had a gymnocalycium, parodia echinopsis smaller than that, made huge flowers compared to their size. Size isnt everything.

geoforce , i hate to disappoint, but i havent got a clue myself. Maybe if i get a photo of the flower, i might be able to help you. But its likely ill be abroad at the time, and i hope my parents will be able to see one of them open and take photos...

For whoever is buying Rebutias, I love R. narvaecensis. Many gorgeous flowers for a long time on a nice, white spined plant. This is in 2017, when I bought it, but it has just started to set buds again. Last picture was yesterday: you can just see a few buds appearing.

Im a sucker for everything cactus with orange blooms. And rebutias' flowers have a calming effect on me...dont know why...

I cant stand the Rhombophyllum nelii. looks like a giant dandelion. I hate dandelions. I do like the green plant though, just not the flower

Weather was perfect when we were in Cabo - mid 70s, like it was when we got back to L.A. The water temperature is always fairly cool, and so the summers are mild - generally in the upper 80s to low 90s. You really need a wetsuit to go in the water there, except perhaps in the summer. I got my fee wet, and that was enough. It really wasn't different enough from San Diego to me to make the trip worthwhile.

Here's what I found in my front yard when I got home:

and in my back yard:Not feeling well after my trip, and I have a lot of weeding to do, especially removing dandelions from the front yard.

So many buds on one P. nelii. Wow!

OUCH !!! Eryn... That was a pretty strong negative reaction to a forum member’s plant who was nice enough to take the time to share with us.

A couple of old time sayings come to mind.

1. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

2. If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.

sorry about that, I didn't mean to be rude. looking back I regret that. sorry. the plant does look good.

My Raphionacme procumbens recently flowers

gdinie..

Probably me talking about the Rebutias. I've looked into that species, but haven't got one yet. Thinking of ordering some seeds of them from Succseed.com and perhaps a few more species R. fusca looks like it would be a really nice one.

Lars.. What sort of Sedum is the second photo? Some kind like rubrotinctum? Not colored up as much as I'd expect in outside sun.

Turbinicarpus klinkerianus flower this morning.

This one has been blooming for weeks. Can someone name it? Grey-green leaves, kinda like jade.

Ceropegia (not sure what type) flower. Any one know?

The flower is similar to woodi, but has cilia on its leaves.

Will look it up. maybe a hybrid or flower is undeveloped

here is a canditate(or parent), ceropegia hirsuta.

And the race for first cactus bloom after winter rest was (again) won by:

Brasilicactus (Parodia) haselbergii!

My first Astrophytum flower of the year is starting to open..

And are these flower buds on my Cyphostemma?

Stefan here a better image of the plant.

I have 2 of Turbinicarpus klinkerianus. Giving me double bloom.

My sinningia

ycloch, either that or ceropegia media. I couldnt find much else in wikimedia commons.

Do you have a photo of a fully developed flower?

Dog, yes, those will be flowers. Is this Fat Bastard or another Cypho? I think mine are all dormant.

Stefan, Will look out for fully developed flowers.

Echeberia sp

Dorstenia

YC,

Do the Raphionacme flowers have a fragrance?

Socks,

That's a Crassula (which you probably knew), but I don't remember the species.

Socks, did not notice any fragrance from a close distance. Base of the plant have a caudex.

bocasana

Stefan, This flower should be open.

Aloebot, yes, my Cyphostemma is Fat Bastard. It's pretty small, exciting that it looks like it's going to flower. Here's the entire plant...

I may be wrong, but these look like flowers to me. Euphorbia tirucalli -

A different flower, or just older?

These are pretty small plants, so I wasn't sure if the cuttings are just branching or if that is, in fact, a flower. I AM sure that I have put too many in this pot. I played the impatient gardener who wants it to look good now! LOL

I love that pot. I grabbed it from the side of the road. Someone had put it out with the trash!

Crenda, those look like flowers to me, too. Great pot, good find!

Some Aloes, and Mesembs, and Bulbs, and...

So glad the rain is mostly done. Now I get to pull weeds for about 3 months.

Still a lot of holiday cacti blooms :)
The EC, I just got last week, it was overly dry but now recovering well.

Rina, I think you told me that the plant in picture #12 was a Sedum. Can you give me the species again? Thanks.

Fenestreria

I tried posting a photo of the whole plant but it won't work. Amazing that still doesn't work well here.

Mini sinningia

Euphorbia x hybrid ( unsure what type)

The mammillaria matudae in full bloom

Is this a flower bud on a lewisia?

I have a flower on my Aptenia cordifolia variegate. And I haven't even gotten it planted (repotted from the HD container) yet!

My neighbor brought me a bunch of clippings she saved for me from her plants. She's had them in water for me. LOL I didn't tell her not to put them in water. We've had that discussion before. I was happy that she remembered me! I am redoing a couple of built-in planters and I think this will look good trailing over the edge.

Jatropha gossypifolia flowers.
