May 9, 2011 : Succulent Watch

May 9, 2011 :  New Succulent Arrangement
Apparently, I cannot get enough of succulents.  I bought several new ones--the Living Stone (left), a freak hybrid (pink top), and an Anacampseros rufscens (right hand side), because it was purplish.  I transplanted my  little regular cactus into a pot with all of them.  They nursery was selling little cacti/succulent gardens similarly packed, so I figure it should be fine.

Christmas & Sunrise Cacti
My parents got a gorgeous tropical succulent called a Sunrise Cactus with totally beautiful fuscia flowers.  They let me take a big cutting, and I repotted it in with the Christmas Cactus.  I'm hoping for some kind of Jesus Morning Miracle hybrid situation.  Or, just some pretty cactus flowers.

Sad Christmas Cactus is Still Sad
It appeared to be growing some little root feelers, so I added more dirt to the tiny jar, and have again, put it out of the reach of my water-happy fingers.

Glorified Butter Warmer / Succulent Hider
The removal of the succulents to the top of the microwave serves two purposes: keeping the succulents of my reach of daily watering, and I've run out of room on my kitchen window sill.
