Jatropha podagrica

I don’t know if there’s a Euphorbiaceae flower that I love more in either bud or bloom. This plant produces so many seed pods it’s absurd. And I’m just realizing how beautiful the leaf form is as well. What a winner.

Cyphostemma lanigerum

You ever just buy plants simply because you’ve never heard of them? I’m obsessed with Cyphostemma so it was an easy call to pull the trigger on this species unbeknownst to me

Full Flush

My Cyphostemma hybrid who I call “Big Bertha” is fully leafed out, flowering and living her best life.

Trichocereus haunucoensis

Correction: Trichocereus peruvianus (most likely).

One of my favorite characteristics about this species is their mat finish epidermis. Normally when I handle blue cacti, their farina comes off but peru, not so much!

Dioscorea hemicrypta

I think I prefer them in dormancy just to reveal all their interesting features

u/Floratopia — 11 days ago

I love you even in dormancy. Maybe even more

I love observing the movement, mounding, fissures, fingers and textures of Dioscorea hemicrypta in dormancy maybe even more than when the vines cover up all that goodness.

Propagate to Relocate

Sometimes it’s just easier to propagate plants/trees to relocate them or in this case redo my landscape.

First flower ever for this species

I’ve grown these Corynopuntia clavata AKA Grusonia clavata for years but this is the first flower of my many clumps. It would be wild if somehow it crossed with the blooming Tephrocactus geometricus next to it 🤯

Propagate to Relocate (Part 2)

In an effort to revise my landscape I’m having to propagate my columnars to move them. While I initially liked it as the front and center talking point plant, it encroached on the walkway after getting too big. Lucky to have my little powerhouse propagator with me this time.
