The weather last night predicted maybe an inch or so and did we ever get that and more! My succulents probably thought they were going to drown at some point. It's a good thing that I brought in my Living Rocks and Baby Toes the other night when I "thought" it was going to rain! I would have lost the Living Rocks for sure...they despise being soaked in water. I lost most of mine over the winter, all but one little one that came back up through the gravel. This summer, I'm starting out with 3 types of the Living Rocks, Pleisopilos Nelii (I loving refer to these as "baby butt cheeks"), Lithops (flat faced ones) and a type of Argyroderma (Easter Egg looking ones). I added a new Baby Toes (Fenestraria Rhopalophylla) to my one from last year, who is struggling, but holding on and then an Aloinopsis Schoonesii to the mix. From what I've found, she probably belongs in the pot with the other Living Rocks...oh well.
Hopefully though, this will encourage my Bougainvillea Torch to start blooming...she's taking her sweet time this year.
