I loved this planting of various succulents in an old tree stump at the Hacienda of the 17 Gardens in Guanajuato. I’ll be showing a few more details from those gardens in the next few days.

Baby Slippers: Flower of the Day, June 25, 2018
Contrary to what you might think, not related to Lady Slippers. Technically not a flower, but couldn’t resist this shot from my friend Gloria’s low entrance wall along her front sidewalk.

Kalanchoe Study #2: Budding out. Flower of the Day, Jan 3, 2018
This 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.
Kalanchoe, Study I: Flower of the Day, Jan 2, 2018
You might have guessed from the title that this is the first of a series taken of this remarkably varied plant. This and all of the upcoming photos were taken at the same time of the same plant. Keep tuned to this blog for upcoming kalanchoe adventures.

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

Echeveria Rosette: Flower of the Day, Aug 24, 2017
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!
