growing

The lesliei v. mariae C141 I sowed back in October are getting bigger and bigger, even though they haven't changed leaves for the second time yet. I've just transplanted them into new square pots, six plants in each. Four pots all in all (will need more space soon). I'm especially curious about the one greenie among them. It could grow into something interesting :)

I've been away for a week, and seven days ago there weren't even flower buds visible. Now they are fully developed and ready to flower (surprise!). If only the sun would come out for a little while. One of them flowered last year , if you remember. I'm glad they're both at it this time - very early but  synchronously :) 

strange formations

It's been a while. The lithops are as fine as they can be, a couple are flowering. This post isn't about them though.  There is a succulent family in my parents' garden that is going crazy this summer. Compared to the plant itself the whole flower-formation is enormous! Anybody knows how they're called?
