Working on an order for a succulent arrangement in this adorable, little red wheelbarrow my customer provided. I’ll be using some trailing plants, to drape down the sides, as well as a few succulent cuttings from my garden. Let’s see how this turns out, shall we 😊

My dear Freddie. Graptoveria ‘Fred Ives’, that is. It’s a fast growing succulent that does well under full to partial sunlight outdoors, as well as indoors, provided it’s near a window. The stems grow to around 10” tall and the leaf span, up to around 14” in diameter! One of these rosettes are working on producing an offset! Do you see it?

The Lavender is in full bloom, and smells amazing! When picking out the Lavender I wanted to plant, I opted for ‘Sensational’ Lavender, due to its hardiness factor. After the blooms dry out, I’ll be harvesting and then trimming the shrub down to prevent it from getting woody, and to encourage bushier growth.

Good morning and happy Friday! What’s everyone getting into this weekend? I’ll be repotting this bunch of Graptopetalum Purple Delights into a terracotta pot, as the pot they’re currently in is very light, so it keeps tipping over with the slightest wind. Oopsie daisy 🤷‍♀️ As with most of my succulents, I started these guys from leaf propagation several years ago. I’ll have leaf segments available for anyone who’d like to start a pot of their own 💜🪴

Haven’t tended to this Echeveria ‘Lime ‘n Chile’ in some time, so decided to take a peek this evening. There were tons of yellowing and dried up leaves, so I got to work with my trusty tweezers. Yellowing of leaves can signify overwatering, but since I haven’t watered this plant in a little over a month, I concluded that it was just natural lower-leaf absorption, which all succulents do. No need to panic. Now, time to water this beauty🪴🌦️

No matter what you do with ‘em, they’re always going to be beautiful. I threw a few succulent leaf segments into this bonsai pot about 3 years ago, and look at it now! The pot consists of Ghost plant and Graptosedum.

Eastern Prickly Pear in full bloom🌵☀️ I sold a few pads yesterday and felt a little sad because it’s never bloomed before, so snapped a pic to memorialize its beauty before removing a few pieces. All parts of this plant are edible, including the flower! 🌼

Good morning! I’m on day two of untangling this hot mess 😅 I’ve also transferred the string of pearls to a larger hanging basket and will be adding cuttings to the top to get it to fill faster.
