Gasteria gracilus variegated form

Today I went to a plant sale at Mounts Botanical Gardens with my Mom, daughter, friend, and met up with my sister in law, and another friend! It was really wonderful. Perfect weather (West Palm beach, Florida), sunny, clear skies, and a cool, dry breeze! We had a wonderful time. Of course, I gravitated to the succulents. I found this absolutely lovely and perfect specimen of Gasteria gracilus variegata, and fell right in love with it! I cherished it from the moment my eyes fell upon it. It is a sick sickness that I have! LOLOL. You should have seen me carrying it with both hands and close to my chest, as I occasionally gave it a sort of kiss now and then! Hee hee hee! I was in heaven! Enjoy the pics I took of it once we got home!

What a beauty! I'd be blowing kisses at it too if I got my hands on one of these.

It is quite nice. Gasteria is such a tough plant--and you'll always have some around because of the offsets. Sometimes I find the perfect cactus and have the same reaction.

Wonderful. I wish I could go to more sales with succulents in them. I went to the book store today to see if i could find a used succulent book but no luck. I love the cool variegation on your gasteria. I would be in love with it too if I had it in my hands.
