| I didn't know if this is considered stealing another persons' thread, but I thought the need of starting a new thread wasn't there and your pics are so awesome (as usual) so I was inspired to move one of my succulents out of the 25'C rain shower and put it on display

| That shot (above) was taken today so I will take more as the flower(s) evolve. A very slow version of time lapse photography haha...
I don't know what sort of plant it is - but it I like it
I have a few cuttings from it which can be sold later this year. |

| You will have to show us the whole plant some one might know what it is. Probably not me as I am not good in remembering them
The ones I took pics of have coloured up even more since I took them. Will wait will they have even more before I take more pics. Poor computer must be going into melt down mode. Took more pics at my friends today not many this time only 99. Oh then there was the sunrise this morning Good thing I have 80gig  _________________ Betty

| Yes I know how you feel with the limited space to store photos!
I've already installed 4 hard drives with over terrabyte now to store my wild crazy photography hobby haha!!!
I will take a full frontal shot of the plant tomorrow and put it on - it's not the world's prettiest plant so I am hoping the flower shines! |

| Nice shot That's a Kalanchoe but as for the species try marmorata. Nice to hear about the obesa germinating  _________________ Betty
