Zeb has flowers!

[hwango]

Zeb, my succulent from Colorado, has flowers! That's so cool! I usually don't have much luck getting my cacti and succulents to flower. The zygocacti and haworthia are the only other ones that flower for me. I had hoped some of the little growths on the sides of Zeb would turn out to open into flowers, but I had no idea what they'd look like.

That's so cool! From the picture, it looks like there's at least one more blossom on the way. :)

Yeah, there are actually 2 buds on one of the other...stalks? Arms? = ) It's actually very flowery on that table right now, since the Christmas cacti near it seem to be confused about the time of year, and are also about to flower. Maybe it's peer pressure.

Yay, go Zeb! How's your saugaro of doom doing btw? (I know I spelled that wrong...)

Sadly, saguaro #2 shrivelled up, and saguaro #1 is still the wrong color, but I'm hoping that's a 'winter dormancy' thing, since it still looked the right shape last time I saw it. I'm also hoping to plant some more in spring and see if I have better luck. It might have been extra hard for them to be sprouting at the wrong time of year.
