Transferring rooted cuttings of my *Crassula ovata* 'Compacta' from plug trays to individual square pots.

A link to the parent plant is in the comments.

A comparison between Mangave 'Pineapple Punch' and Mangave 'Snow Leopard'

'Pineapple Punch' has marginal variegation with a very obvious yellow undertone while 'Snow Leopard' has off-white marginal variegation.

Yes, you can successfully plant multiple stems in one pot. Here's one of mine.

These stems are obviously tightly packed. But, look at the results!!

A vignette from my latest landscaping project.

The second photo is the same area just with a wider angle shot... AND, after I watered down the stones.

Blooms on the supposedly "clumping form" of Aeonium nobile help support the idea that it's actually a hybrid. Aeonium nobile has red flowers, not pink.

The latest addition to my easement garden is Aloe microstigma.

I had her under drought stress for weeks, hence, the dry leaf tips and the obvious fiery coloration. But, she'll be a little bit more pampered in her new location.

Euphorbia caput-medusae creeping in from the left. Eventually, it and its two neighbors, will look similar to the mature plant in the comments.

I FINALLY repotted a few neglected plants. Thankfully, as mangaves, they can handle slightly larger pots and slightly more moisture-retentive soil. UPDATE coming in a couple months. . .

Considered quite rare in cultivation due to its occurrence on primarily treacherous cliffs, remote rock outcrops, and vertical faces, this is Agave kavandivi.

Up-potting my 'Pineapple Express' with my little orange assistant.

To be completely honest, he was acting more like my unamused manager, watching on with absolute disinterest and dissatisfaction. 😁😄

And, don't worry... I'll water the plant really well after a few days of it recuperating in the dry soil.

Only relatively recently described in 2022, these are Agave salomonii

They're still quite young because they haven't yet reached the stage in which they produce a thick bloom on the outer face of their leaves. But, some are displaying some atypical (for this species) red and purple tones. I grew these from seeds I acquired, in 2019, prior to it being officially described.
