The Succulents and Pottery Compulsion

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!!!

Pohinahina

This isn't a cactus or succulent, but it is a wonderful Native Hawaiian plant.

I might expand the scope of this blog to document the growth of the non-succulent Hawaiian plants I have (Kalo which have corms, 'Akia, and this Pohinahina).

Kokee Museum

The Kokee Museum has a book of watercolor paintings of native plants. They mounted each plant (and I took a picture of each one so you all can enjoy it). These are out of order - just enjoy them!!!
