Good Thursday morning everybody!


Just wanted to tell you that my succulent tires are looking kinda pretty in the winter sun here! I have an aloe that has been blooming for several months now, some bright red jelly bean succulents, and due to this, it has my mind wandering to joining my local Cactus and Succulent Society! Unfortunately, it is located in Miami area (about 2 hours away), but they meet only quarterly...so if I can afford the gas to get there, I think I will go for it! Even if I can't get there, they will still send me their publication, Cereus Chatter. It is published quarterly and is a full color publication produced exclusively for members of SFCSS, Inc. Sounds like a fun thing! The next meeting is May 23-25, and it is a show and sale too! You can see some of their succulent plants HERE! I think I will try and be there!

  3. That is a really pretty logo! I get all excited about something to join and then when I do, I rarely go to the meetings, so now I make myself think about it for a week before I decide and chances are good that I don't.

    But this one really sounds like you.

  4. Darla- you can read all about Soap Aloe HERE.

    Do you happen to mean a Jewel Leaf Plant, otherwise known as Lavendar Pebbles? If so, it is actually a Gratopetalum. I think I used to have one, but could not keep it alive! You can read about this one HERE.

  6. When is their show--or do they have one? Ours is coming up in a few weeks. I always look forward to it. Our publication is called Central Spine. Seems the local chapters always have creative cactus-related names.
