Definitely a flower stalk on the Jovibarba which will give whitish flowers. Always fun watching bumble bees trying to shove themselves into these flowers that don't open much. You beat me on the baileyi pupping, all here are still solitary despite being bigger. Definitely taking off with growth, You...

Thanks, Andy! There's the "Cut to the chaffe" black & white answer I was hoping to hear -- & rarely see on CF. :D Usually for a good reason, because it always seems to depend... Actually have had 2 dry days, sun of day off, & 3 more coming :D "There's no crying in cactus ...

No time for babying stuff, just do it. I plant whenever late April to July. If it can't hack it then I don't want it.

Sempervivum flower buds

Not my plant but this one looked great the other day. Is it sneedii or leei?

Well this contest is no fun. I have like a million billion macro photos and trying to choose one is well....

How far is the nearest Napa store? It is worth it. Call ahead, pre order a bunch and make the trip happen.

There seems to be confusion here. "Oil Dri" is a product name that has nothing to do with the number 8822, I never looked to see who makes "Oil Dri". Oil Dri was fired clay when I bought a few bags at Walmart in the past. The stuff I got did not turn to mush and I've had some out...

Well imagine no more cause it is very suitable. Its just fired clay granules. I used it for a few years and it worked great but I switched to Napa 8822 cause that is a lot cheaper.

This triglochidiatus is giving me fits, not good for my blood pressure. Maybe I'll get $100 for it on ebay someday
His brother from the same seed batch knows how to do it properly

It will help if you can post pictures of the new growth when it gets going. Based on what I see it is unlikely that you will be able to grow that outdoors in Connecticut year round.
