C and D's Succulents
Re: C and D's Succulents
We grew these Euphorbia tulearensis from seed that Gary James gave us
They are about 12 years old now
I have them staged in small pots for maximum effect
We get seed most years to grow new ones as fast we can

Bulb Fun
Lachenalla viridiflora - Blue Flowers! Eriospermum paradoxum Eriospermum capricorne Albuca unifolia x scabrocostatum
I intentionally crossed 2 Albuca unifolias,
but for some reason the only seeds that were produced are a cross with my single A. scabrocostatum.
They are cool, fat and fast growing, I wonder what they will look like in a couple years?
Maybe a cross back with A. scabrocostatum would be a good plant. A good comparison of bulb type.
Top - Bulbine praemorsa
Middle - Bulbine haworthioides
Bottom - Eriospermum paradoxmum
Not a bulb, but so cute
Sarcocaulon multifidum
Seedlings from my neighbor Gary James.

Re: C and D's Succulents
This Winter's succulents
Oophytum oviforme Cheiridopsis denticulate, serrated leaf tips,
huge flowers that grow and change color as they age This year's Gibbaeum heathii flowers Tylecodon racemosus racemosus roots forming plantlets
unfortunately going dormant at this time

Re: C and D's Succulents
Albuca concordiana multi plant planter with seeds galore
Need the species name
Odontophorus pusillus
Lachenalia species with bubbly leaves
Need the species name
Re: C and D's Succulents
Lachenalia kliprandensis might be a good guess.
Re: C and D's Succulents
What a fantastic thread. I’m gunna go through the whole thing today.
Ferocactus best cactus
Re: C and D's Succulents
That took a lot longer than expected..
Finished! Would love to see more stapeliads. Do you grow any large and spiny euphorbia?

Re: C and D's Succulents
Funny you should ask about those plants...
my wife grows them!
I call her side of the green house the leafy side, because she grows all the other stuff that I don't grow
Cyphostemmas, gangly Euphorbias, stick plants, Decarya, Aloes, Agaves, and other fat stem leafy things.
She had a big stapeliad collection, but she neglected it during the winter and big portions would die,
so we gave it to Ed Reed at CSUF, since he was just getting into them.

Re: C and D's Succulents
Back for another installment of what's new
I do grow a bunch of small stapeliads
This Piaranthus foetidus put on quite a stink fest
It's annoying musty stink, not the usual carrion Echidnopsis repens is easy to grow
The stems break off so easily that we have way too many these days Some early Conos Lone Conophytum burgeri flower this year Late Lithops flowers
L. olivacea L. villetii deboeri Forgot the name of this Argyroderma The blue flowered Lachenalia viridflora

We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

Aloinopsis schooneesii

Fat trunks Anacampseros comptonii from last summer
