    Default My Other Passion- Succulents

    I enjoy succulents as well as my orchids. Echeveria purpusorum and Pachyveria glauca. The growth habits and graceful flower spikes are so artistically pleasing to my eye, I just stand and watch them for hours.... well, maybe not hours!

    I think I've seen plants like that before, but never in bloom. They are very pretty. Thank you for sharing.

    The first pic of the pachyveria is very nice. Before orchids, I had a large number of cacti and succulents--still have several cacti, they're the exact opposite of orchids--ignore and don't water!
