The rogue lithops flower finally opened. It should NOT be coming out of the side like this, but at least it will be interesting to see how the plant responds as it begins shedding its old leaves. 😬🤞🌱 #succulent #lithops #plantsky

This is a nice, brief, article in the AP with some good information! #succulents #greenthumb #houseplants #plantcare #plantdad #plantlife #plantlover #plantmom #plantparent #plants #plantsky

Titanopis I grew from seed. I love the unusual texture on the leaf tips.

This is a close up of my kitchen counter in direct sun. It's normally mostly black to the naked eye, but in the sun, it transforms into some cool colors and textures. #macro #photography #granite #counterart

🌱Today’s flower/plant photo is perennial Wallflower(Erysimum). In the background of the photo are also some annual blue purple Salvia and two varieties of Verbena (two toned bright pink and white and dark pink and white). I planted all of these P together in one of the gardens last year.

My best friend Mulberry is taking care of me while I'm sick. Rescued her from being trapped in the wall when my dumbass neighbors got evicted. Her other two sisters were harder to catch cause they threw them out the second floor window! #cats #pets

This is Chili. He was invited to his first doggy pool party. Quickly learned he really, realllly likes doing belly flops. 13/10 (TT: goldenchilidog)

This is a recent gift from old friends. They found a handsome young Peanut cactus and paired it with this cool hand made pot. The best part is the artist is their very talented daughter. 🏺🌵 #cactus #pottery #art

In 2026, we can’t take the easy path by giving in to despair. We have to keep doing something to be ready for the moment the right combination of events align and we can see a better future.

My oldest and still my favorite Paphiopedilum. I love how hardy and easy to grow this one is. I currently have it growing in three pots plus my dart frog terrarium. Unfortunately, I lost the tag years ago, but it’s earned permanent status anyway.

Rick's post reminded me to check in on my two Split Rocks. I haven't looked at them closely for a while (oops), but see both are growing new leaves. Love how they already have their dots. 🌱 #succulent #Macro #photography #gardening

These are my favorite succulent photos of 2025 (non-cactus category). #succulents #gardening #plantsky

These are 'Mexican fence post' cactus. The one on the right has a much less common "crested" growth pattern. I love both forms, but look at those curves. 😍🌵 #cactus #succulent #crestedcactus Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! 💕

Plant sale update 🌱✨ Success! The delivery went smoothly overall, there were a couple moments of hard braking (and a little plant sliding 😅), but everything made it safely. If you’re in the Bay Area, you’ll soon be able to find my plants for sale at the Ruth Bancroft Garden Center in Walnut Creek.

A few of my favorite cactus photos of 2025. It was fun seeing them mature and show their potential. 🌸🌵 #cactus #succulents #flowers #gardening

I can't believe I didn't think of covering my spiky agaves and aloes with deer netting until this year. It works like magic and will save a lot of time (and painful pokes) removing leaves. 🍁👍 #gardening #succulents #spikyplants

As novice lithops growers, my wife and I were happy to see our first ever flowers this year. Now, one of hers is sprouting this. We're told it's a flower bud, but straight out of the side (and not the top) is...unusual. 🤔🌱 #lithops #succulents #plantsky

After a very cold and gray trip visiting family back east, it's nice being back in sunny California with the cactus. 🕶️🌵 #cactus #succulents #plantsky

Only in the narcissistic, insular USA could a religion about love and acceptance (of the marginalized, sick, and downtrodden) be turned into hate and bigotry for political gain —exploitation that has blossomed from the sociopathy discarded from Europe that contaminated this country from its infancy.

Light rain falls as a western #bluebird (Sialia mexicana) perches on a sapling along a country road in rural SW #Oregon. Unlike many songbirds, the species often hunts insects by dropping to the ground from a perch, rather than catching them in midair #birds #wildlifephotography #photography

This is Rose. She's paralyzed in both her back legs from being hit by a car as a stray. But when she sees her wheelchair harness come out, she knows it's time to walk and roll. 14/10 (IG: twopawrose)

I’m making my first plant sale today!! 🎉🌱 Headed out to deliver 150 plants to a local nursery. Fingers crossed for a smooth drive and no sudden stops that send everything sliding. More details coming in a follow-up post!

This Gasteria "Little Warty" has been quietly growing into its pot in a secluded corner of my patio. It's definitely earned a more prominent spot. 🌱 #succulents #plantsky #gardening

this has become a very important video to me

Here are the succulents that were the highlight of the week for me. 🌱 #cactus #Succulent #gardening #plantsky #photography

“the combination of wind and solar provided 15.1% more electricity than coal during the first nine months of this year… Capacity additions by solar, wind, and battery storage continue to dramatically outpace gas, coal and nuclear.” #CleanIsCheaper www.solarpowerworldonline.com/2025/12/sola...

I'm going through my back-catalog of aurora pics for my upcoming side quest website, and still in awe of some of the light shows we've gotten over the past two years during this solar maximum cycle. This was from mid April in Iceland this year. #northernlights #theothermidnightsun (science joke)

Man with flowers in his hat, playing a flute. Pastoral songs of love, perchance? By Jan Miel, whose day is today.

Back from holiday travel and am happy to report the succulents didn't miss me at all. 🌱 #succulents #cactus #gardening #plantsky

Actually, I would put money on the outcome being that the insurance company accepts the diagnoses as correct but rejects coverage on the grounds that he's untreatable.

I thought the NY Times piece about Trump today was pretty good. But I'd add that I don't really have that much of a problem with him indiscriminately falling asleep. I have a bigger problem with the fact that he keeps waking up.
