My Calibanus hookeri looks to be getting seeds but I haven't had a male plant flower so I don't know what's going on #succulents #caudiciforms #calibanus #houseplants #plantsky

I like growing plants and collecting rocks
Echeveria 'Pink Vera' and Pachyveria 'Gold Rose' from the National Cactus and Succulent Show in June. Some of the plants I bought had 2 or 3 in the pot so I've given them all their own pots since then, but the bowl garden never happened. #GardensHour #succulents #echeveria #pachyveria #plantsky
I bought some new variegated succulents at the National Cactus and Succulent Show in June to make another pink bowl garden, then didn't dare plant them up because it was always so hot and dry, and now it's September. #GardensHour #succulents #echeveria #gardensky #plantsky
I started taking my Winnie The Pooh succulent garden apart this afternoon because the trees were getting so big they're going lopsided. It won 3rd prize at the national cactus & succulent show in June and 1st at the Harlow Carr show in August, but now it's all over. #succulents #plantsky #crassula
How about a trailing succulent as an exciting change? Cotyledon pendens, also bought at RHS Bridgewater last weekend #succulents #cotyledon #plantsky #gardensky #houseplants
My new Mangave 'Snow Leopard' plant again, bought from the RHS Bridgewater cactus and succulent sale last weekend. I did bash a leaf, but what's it going to do, eat me? #mangave #agave #succulents #GardenersWorld #plantsky
I bought a Frailea grahliana plant at the weekend then lifted it up and realised it has got a bonus seedling growing at the bottom of the pot #cactus #frailea #freeplants #plantsky #cacti
I couldn't resist this Rebutia hybrid with a really terrible pun as a name #cactus #rebutia #aylostera #cacti #plantsky
Mystery bulb. Like I could resist a mystery bulb. Also from the cactus and succulent sale at RHS Bridgewater. Ornithogalum possibly. #Ornithogalum #succulents #bulbs #plantsky #gardensky
Mangave 'Snow Leopard' bought from the RHS Bridgewater cactus and succulent sale. I've got a few Mangave plants but not a variegated one so I thought I'd give it a go #mangave #agave #plantsky #gardensky #succulents
My new plants from the RHS Bridgewater cactus and succulent sale. Mangave 'Snow Leopard', 2 Frailea, 2 Gymnocalycium, 2 Graptoveria, Didierea petignatii, Cotyledon pendens, a Rebutia hybrid with a really bad pun as a name and a mystery bulb. #cactus #succulents #plantsky #gardensky #cacti
another new plant from the RHS Bridgewater cactus and succulent sale this weekend: Graptoveria 'Moon' = 'Moonglow'? I might try a cutting of this outside too #Graptoveria #GardensHour #succulents #plantsky #gardensky
new plant from the RHS Bridgewater cactus and succulent sale this weekend - Echeveria 'Lilac Spoons', or is it a Graptoveria? I'm going to plant it in a bowl garden but I might also try a cutting of it outside #GardensHour #succulents #plantsky #echeveria #Graptoveria
I went to RHS Bridgewater this weekend to buy plants and look for Lego #cactus #succulents #plantsky
Anacampseros baeseckei flowering a few days ago. The buds don't open very often. They like sunny afternoons so maybe I won't see another flower for a while. #Anacampseros #succulents #plantsky
2 pink flowers open on a Lophophora williamsii plant I grew from seed. #cactus #lophophora #cacti #plantsky
More Frailea buds, but I'm not sure we're going to get a sunny enough day for them to actually open. #frailea #cactus #plantsky #gardensky #cacti
This is what my mum took to the Harlow Carr cactus and succulent show last week. It got 2nd prize in the class for a plant in a pot related to its name. Chamaelobivia 'Lincoln Treat', a peanut cactus. #cactus #GardensHour #echinopsis #chamaelobivia #plantsky
Mini King Arthur had to pull his sword out of a different living stone this time because one Lithops decided to flower the week before the show. He didn't win anything again, but there's a mesemb show I can take this to in autumn, so he has another chance #lithops #succulents #plantsky #mesembs
I borrowed some more of my dad's toy soldiers to add to this little crevice garden. This got 3rd at the Harlow Carr Cactus and Succulent Show but I've given him the figures back now because apparently they need to do some wargaming. #cactus #succulents #frailea #plantsky #gardensky
I took my Thunderbirds succulent garden to a show again. It didn't win again. Made from Sempervivum and Jovibarba, plus some Aeonium palm trees. #succulents #thunderbirds #GardenersWorld #plantsky #gardensky
I borrowed my dad's wargaming figures to make a little scene out of Crassula, Frailea and Texas Rangers. This got 2nd at the Harlow Carr Cactus and Succulent Show in the miniature garden, landscape or scene class. #crassula #cactus #succulents #frailea
My miniature coral reef won 1st prize at the Harlow Carr cactus and succulent show in the miniature garden, landscape or scene class. Planted with Crassula, Pachyphytum, cristate Echeveria and Graptophytum, and a couple of Aloe starfish. #succulents #crassula #plantsky #gardensky
My little Lithops garden won 2nd prize in the class for a container of plants all from the same genus at the Harlow Carr Cactus and Succulent show on Saturday. They're all Lithops lesliei v. venteri ex C001. Except the ones that are pebbles. #succulents #lithops #mesembs #plantsky
My Titanopsis and ammonites bowl garden won 1st prize in the class for a container of plants all from the same genus at the Harlow Carr Cactus and Succulent Show on Saturday. No flower open on it this time though #succulents #titanopsis #mesembs #ammonites #plantsky
I entered my Lord Of The Rings succulent garden into the educational class at the Harlow Carr cactus and succulent show in case anyone wants to know how to grow their own Crassula forest. It came second #succulents #crassula #plantsky #LOTR #aichryson
