For the Beauty of the Earth

Color Queens 🌈

Is it October and way too late to start any new gardening projects? Yes. Did that stop me from making a fairy garden today? Nope.

I have become overwhelmed with succulent babies lol

Repotted my lithops!! I now have a bowl of lithops😍

Australian growers tend to pot them in fine bark and aquarium gravel. I opted for fine bark with a layer of sphagnum at the top of the pot to retain a bit of extra humidity. This one has a great root system, 6+ established fans, and another 3-4 coming in. Not quite sure what to expect with the flowers, since I’m not familiar with Sarco genetics, but I like a mystery! I think this one has a really lovely growth habit.

And the rest of the succulents! The first two photos are of some kind of haworthia venosa, the third photo is of a crassula rosularis (or crassula orbicularis var. rosularis) and in the fourth photo there’s a kalanchoe (it was only labeled as kalanchoe ‘azumi’). The kalanchoe was on sale and I got it on an impulse, but the haworthia venosa and crassula rosularis are plants that I’ve wanted for a long time.
