The cheshirecat's succulent problem...

[ElieEstephane]

They usually have short stems but my long stem was the result of a mishap with over fertilization

[the_cheshirecat]

Do you think I should put it in a larger pot?
It seems a bit cramped in there, and it's only been 2 months... Carpobrotum Godzilla would be an apt name for this one!

[ElieEstephane]

No the pot seems adequate. Unless it gets root bound there's no reason to repot. You can plant it in a hanging basket later or you can even plant it outside if your winters aren't too cold

Ive seen carpobrotus in greece, they grow like grass. Imagine carpets of this thing. Cover large surface areas.
Ive reed they even produce edible fruit.

@stefan, I first need to convince my plants to flower me thinks!
I'll read your post to my plants, they might listen to a more authoritative voice!

@elieestephane I pretty much relocate every 6 months, so everything needs to fit in my car... I now have this image of plants hanging from my rearview mirror!

[stefan m.]

the_cheshirecat sorry could reply earlier, but im a student and have to student things.

[ElieEstephane]

I now have this image of plants hanging from my rearview mirror!

That's a very cool image! I now imagine you with a station wagon full of plants

[the_cheshirecat]

I find this very appealing...

[stefan m.]

I usually am in that seat, and i would find it very painful, if i the car were to stop suddenly,

my car last year

Hold on!
Picture 1, who are the handsome guys (1st and last in the row)?
...
not that the other ones aren't handsome, but I really like these two...

[stefan m.]

First one is euphorbia(trigona royal red), last one is myrtillocactus.

[ElieEstephane]

Euphorbia trigona rubra and myrtillocactus geometrizans cutting

[the_cheshirecat]

Very interesting plants!
I hope I'm not too indiscreet, but were you moving home or taking them for a stroll?

PS I can imagine trying to explain the cacti passengers to the police...

[ElieEstephane]

Hahaha! I bought them on a flower street market and didn't feel they were too safe in a paper bag so i put them there
Here is another one in my other car. Safety first!
