Remember my Aloinopsis schooneesii seedlings? Sown in June 2013 they are now slowly getting too big for their pot. They more or less rested over the winter but recently started to grow new leaves one pair after another. Here is their well-deserved group picture. The big dark kid in the back looks especially fine :)
Very cute, especially the triple! I've enjoyed watching the progress of these. Can't wait for mine to get to that size, I sowed them in mid-December and they're still on their first pair of adult leaves. I like the coloration of the dark one in the back, though the light green with pink is also nice. I've seen habitat photos where they almost look brown, but I'm not sure how much light that would require!
ReplyDeleteThank you Craig :)
DeleteNow that the days are getting longer your december-kids will grow very quickly, just you wait!
True, that must be very strong sunlight! Under home conditions it is difficult to get dark color and small round leaves. On the photo above you can see the way the leaves grow in winter (long and pale) and how they grow with enough sunlight (round, dark, well-textured) ;)
I like the markings on the leaves. My old plant has just flowered. I will post the pictures on Succulent Sundae.
ReplyDeleteMe, too :)
DeleteYour plant is pretty late :D
My old plant did it sometime last year.
