My daughter Noe got me interested in succulents in early 2016 and ever since we've been on a quest!!! Naturally with so many new plants around, we needed pots to put all of them into. The typical pots you can buy from the big box stores just don't have character that suits these incredibly interesting plants. So we've both been making our own pottery. And now we're branching out into other plants - Aeroids, Orchids and Citrus!!! Check out what our green thumbs have been doing!!!

Caralluma schweinfurthii Repotted and Starting to Flower
This plant was crawling out of its previous pot, so I made one of the long cedar plank boxes to repot it. In the process I went ahead and broke it up (it actually fell apart as I gently handled it).
It's nice that it is flowering again! When these plants flower is pretty significant as that is the only sure-fire time to identify them (unless you are a scientist that has access to DNA testing equipment - of which I am not). Here is one of the cuttings I got last year and the first flower bud it is pushing.
