I don’t think so Merle, it was probably the transplanting itself,…they wanted to spread out… 🙂

Patty, you can believe probably how fast I snapped that thing up….luckily my husband doesn’t think I’m too crazy…

TFS my egg basket … after seeing your series here on ‘succulents’ I definitely am going to do more container gardening with them! Lovely!

That rusted brake rotor speaks to me the way the blue leaves work with that rust. Succulents are so wonderful to work with. I am using them more and more with other plants in containers now too though I have to say some of the most striking displays I have seen are a single variety thoughtfully planted in an interesting container…like that brake rotor.

Last year I replanted some into an old iron pot, then added a small solar light to the pot to set at my front walk. I couldn’t believe the change in my hens….they exploded with new growth, chicks everywhere, spilling over the edges of the pot. I love it! Their color even changed….darker green with purple tips . Was this change caused by the solar light?
