Kalanchoe Study #2: Budding out. Flower of the Day, Jan 3, 2018

IMG_5637This is #2 in a series of shots taken of one kalanchoe plant–all on the same day.  It seemed to have at least 4 phases of budding to full flower all occurring at the same time.  Go HERE to see the first shot of the portion of the plant in full bloom.  Hard to believe these are all stages of the exact same flower.

These little succulent flowers are tiny, so it is easy to overlook them.

Here’s Cee’s saucy little number for the day.

Too rainy to go out and snap photos, so I’ll substitute this shot of this chickless hen.  Almost a flower.

Hen and Chicks Blossoms: Cee’s Flower of the Day, May 17, 2017

These succulent hen and chick blooms seem to be blushing.  It is a very hearty and easily transplanted succulent, thus its scientific name “sempervivum,” which means “lives forever.”

Hen and Chicks

If you’re yearning for a flower, do not question picking them,
for their mama is a hen who is forever chicking them!

Like a Flower: Flower of the Day, Nov 17 2016

Back when I lived in a place where flowers didn’t bloom year round, I always felt that my succulents were a flower of sorts.  This jade plant blooms like a flower rising above the falling foliage of its pot companion.

Ms. Bee, Ms. Bee, how much more lush could a sedum be?

 (An interesting fact revealed to me by a bee scholar is that worker bees are females without ovaries, not males, so my former usage of Mr. Bee was incorrect.  Now who would know that???  He who knows all: Forgottenman!!!)
