I am looking for this curly plant. I know it is available here in California but have not seen it in the nurseries I have visited. I don't even have the name for it. I saw a picture online that it also produce a yellowish flower. Will post again when I learn more about this plant.

Echeveria Lola. I love echeverias, but this one is my favorite. My grandchildren calls me LOLA (grandma in Tagalog).  This is easy to grow and propagate- takes partial shade. You have to watch out for mealy bugs as they love this kid of succulent. I maintain it by spraying it with alcohol once in a while or as soon as I see Mealy bug infestation.

I got this plant from a member of Succulent Infatuation group as a trade for my Stapelia variegata. It has a bloom ready to open. So excited to see the red flower. I love to trade plants with other succulent lovers- USA only.

Stapelia Variegata. The flowers last for several days. Easy to grow. Can tolerate full sun.

I  saw this at a nursery  . This is what you can do to a broken Pot.

Went to Morro Bay this weekend and saw this beautiful variegated Agave. Have not seen this before - it was very healthy and full  I guess it is because of the great  seaside weather they have there .
This is my first time to order plants by mail. Received these epiphyllum  cuttings in good condition . Was instructed to plant it right away, and wait 2 weeks before watering. I am supposed to miss it when soil gets dry.
