Aeonium Leucoblepharum

I rate these a 2-3 in easiness, though I should be able to increase that to a 5 if I just knew exactly when, and when not to water them.- this is a relatively small group of low-growing branching plants with fat, succulent, globoid leaves.Some are ridiculously...

Succulent arrives in a 4" growers pot ready for potting. Aeonium succulents grow in long stems with brightly colored rosettes that resemble flowers. They like a bit more moisture than other succulents, except in the summer months, when they may go dormant...

Keep the soil moist to slightly dry, and allow soil around roots to dry out before watering to encourage healthy growth. Aeonium Kiwi produces tricolor rosettes of green and yellow leaves edged in red.

Succulent arrives in a 4" growers pot ready for potting. They like a bit more moisture than other succulents, except in the summer months, when they may go dormant and don't require any water, except in very dry conditions.

Signs of overwatering include wilting, yellowing and soft spots on the base of the stems. Instead of picking them out by hand, use a can of compressed air to remove the debris.Aeoniums can grow outdoors in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness...

However, growing activity does not necessarily translate into blooming activity. This is primarily a month for quiet, down-time for cacti, but a few Cleistocacti and related genera make blooms in January.

March is still somewhat dominated by aloe flowers, but for pure mass of color, the Mesembs have taken over.Some of these ice-plant relatives blanket the gardens and landscapes of southern California and other Mediterranean climates this month and next...

You'll have to live in a warm clime to grow donkey's tail (Sedum morganianum) or blue chalk sticks (Senecio mandraliscae) since they thrive in zone 11 and zones 10 through 11, respectively.You don't have to pamper succulents like you do fussy, flowering...

Next, remove the plant and gently “tease” the roots so that they are no longer circling the rootball or are densely matted. Next, water the potting mix well and place it its intended location.

Cut off about 3 to 5 inches from the end of a stem. Make the cut as flush with the main stem as possible. Place the cutting in the shade for two days to a week, depending on the size of the cut stem, until it forms a hard layer over the wounds.

This should at least help you get some idea of what one might expect to see flowering in the succulent world this month, a time of year when much of the rest of the USA has no flowers to see at all.

For best results, propagate and sell only those drought-resistant plants native to your region. Home and business owners who seek to swap their grassy lawns for low-maintenance, drought-tolerant landscaping can provide farmers with another avenue of financial...

On the contrary, there are hundreds, if not thousands more species that make flower in the spring and early summer. I personally can only grow a few of these reliably, but there are hundreds of species and varieties, so many of the below photos are NOT...

After removing the pot from water allow excess water to drain from the pot for about 10 minutes. Its our recommendation to cover the surface of the soil with decorative gravel. This will help to keep the leaves of Aeonium Nodulosa from coming into contact...

All you need is a repurposed Bundt pan, a few plants and your imagination. They are one group of plants that thrive on neglect. Water sparingly maybe once every six to eight weeks.

But in many plants this death is very delayed and often goes unnoticed giving the impression that the plant as a whole is polycarpic. But when looking at the life of some of these monocarpic plants, or of some of the polycarpic plants (ones that flower...

This article is an introduction on how to do some watercolor paintings of some of the simpler succulents (Aloes, Agaves etc.).Some painting tips will be mentioned and some sample paintings will be shown as they develop from the start to finish.To me painting...

The tall pot is not necessarily a good for planting a rot-prone tree like that Bursera, but 3/4 of the pot is full of gravel so drainage is excellent; in the second photo a large, round rosette was planted in a tall, narrow, flat pot which seems somewhat...

It is far from exhaustive in terms of being a complete compilation of Euphorbias, but it is one of the better on line informational sources.This search for the genus Euphorbia results in over 900 plants, well over half with multiple photographs.However...

The Leucospermum on the right is a dicot and the Aehmea on the left is a monocot (Bromeliad)... So, treat your monocotyledonous trunks and stems with a little more respect as they can't heal like a dicot trunk/stem can.typical tree cut showing rings of...
