Succulents #2 and #3
I love succulents. There's a house down the street where the whole front is dozens and dozens of pots of all manner of succulents, and I'd love to have at least a section like that here. The Christmas cactus I tried to start off with last month didn't make it through a deluge and a bunch of cold, so here are attempts #2 and #3, though I just read that that lovely flower means my cute little desert lotus is going to die. I guess that's my lesson for today, don't count your hens & chicks.
The lava rock planter came with the house and has been sitting out in the yard gathering moss all winter.
Bunches more after the jump...
