There is a beautiful one like the top one in my daughter's room in a nice pot. I have been enjoying seeing it very much.

They are so pretty, almost look like flowers with the leaves arranged such away.

I ♥ the top one...topsy turvy. It looks like it is really big.

I just started on succulents about 3 months ago. The heavy daily rains we have been having in southwest Florida are not good for the succulents. I've given up putting them back out in the flower beds and am leaving the pots under cover.

Glad I found your blog (posting by Rick Brown on Facebook).

Hey Titania!! I absolutely LOVE your garden!! Succulents are such a fantastic addition and so hardy. You've named several varieties that I have in my garden but didn't know the names. I like how you display them. Beautiful!!! Your patio looks oh-so-inviting, too. Nicely done!

I do have a weakness for succulents! Never would I have thought to put my 'Topsy Turvy' in a hanging basket...how fun! How long did it take for your 'Donkey Ear' to bloom? This is one of my absolute favorites along with the 'Chandelier' Kalanchoe and I've yet to get them to bloom, this will be their 2nd summer with me.

Stephanie said...

I am surprised donkey's ear could give such pretty flowers! It is really really marvellous!! Well, I think it is because of your TLC he he... Love your succulent collection. I hope they will give you pretty flowers soon.

Hi Titania! You have a very nice collection of succulents! Echeveria Topsy Turvy is something special, isn't it? I don't think I've ever seen it in a hanging basket! Great!...Ha-ha: Verification word for my comment is 'later'. Does it mean I will see Topsy Turvy in a hanging basket later?

Pietro Brosio said...

Hello Titania! I really like the quote you wrote in the comment on my post: "Do as the sundial does count the sonny hours only".
Thanks, Happy Wednesday!

Pietro Brosio said...

Hi Titania! I really needed to know the names of the two white flowers of my second-last post! Thanks very much! :-)

You grow a beautiful selection of succulents. I like the sign!

Nebst den Sukkulenten gefällt mir auch das witzige Schildchen, mit dem Hinweis, wer da alles wohnt ;-) !! Wir haben im Moment eine Hitzewelle und ich könnte eigentlich meine wenigen Sukkulententöpfchen auch nach draussen stellen, damit sie wieder einmal "ihr" Klima hätten :-) !! Aber diese Wärme macht mich irgendwie träge, die Lebensgeister erwachen vorallem nachts...Mein Garten verkommt zusehends ;-) !!
Herzliche Grüsse,
Barbara

I am very partial to succulents. You have some lovely and varied ones, with flowers, too! Just beautiful!

P.S. The sign is funny - you must be the "lovely lady". :)
