Very nice Ted. Some of the Australian growers have commented that they find the purples and dark colors are more intense when it is humid. Maybe not as intense yet, as you have just potted up from bare root. Beautiful either way. I cannot wait to see all of your plants in bloom. Your going to have a garden oasis of Adenium flowers. Can you imagine when they get looking like Marie's! This will come. I'm sure. Rick

I love succulents too! Help me learn to post, please My regualr email is graceygirl777@gmail.com Can someone help me learn to start a post? I need help rooting my Jade leaves? I'm having some success with rooting hormone but still unsure if i might be using too much soil. I actually stopped using soil accept to lightly cover the ends and have success, I have about 40 leaves I'm trying to root, I have branches too. I've rooted the branches in water but that seems like cheating so I'm sticking to the rooting ormone and soil. I haven't developed a full proof technique. sorry for cutting in on you, I've been lurking for a month and can't get the hang of things here. I really do love your succulent, and have very small ones similar. Exciting!

Nice photo. ot me this looks like and ech harmsii or pulvinata that s very young, s like a tiny leaf propagate. te reason I say this is the juveniles have rounder eaves, kin of like a puppy has a rounder nose that when it get older. it also show a different fuzz size to leaf size ration that is typical of the tiny young ones. if this is it, that will change as it matures, like the fuzz will not seem as lush when it matures. Still, it's a fab plant.

illsstep..first pic shows 7 macs..1 was there..6 were planted late summer/early fall 2017..4 were moved from other locations in my yard..2 new cheap Bloomstrucks..this is an east facing spot..I thought if they never bloom they'll make decent filler in an out of view spot..pic2 is the current winter protection..I've tried garbage bags over the plant filled with leaves..once my husband built 3 ft high wooden fencing that we surrounded one with..then filled with leaves..for this year at first I wasn't going to bother but at the last minute filled garbage bags and lined them up and covered the tops with leaves..I totally AGREE with you that here they do NOT bloom on new wood..which is why I try to "overwinter" my old stems..
