Sweetstuff's Sassy Succulents: Spring has Sprung and Misc. Sweetstuff Things
http://www.sweetstuffssassysucculents.com/2015/03/spring-has-sprung-and-misc-sweetstuff.html
Friday, March 27, 2015. Spring has Sprung and Misc. Sweetstuff Things. I am so excited for Spring to be here. I have been so busy working in the garden I have't blogged about the San Francisco Flower and Garden Show. But it is coming. I wanted to show you a little bit of what has been going on in the garden. Remember the greenhouse I bought and used last winter? We kept up the poles and used them to attach shade cloth so I have more growing area without the intense Sacramento sun. It is fantastic! But it...

Delosperma Sawdahense flower | Blueskiez
https://blueskiez.wordpress.com/2013/10/16/delosperma-sawdahense-flower
October 16, 2013 in Gardening. I’ve had this plant (compact hybrid version) since the beginning of September 2013, and it seems to be adapting well to our local hot humid environment. After clearing away the old sulking leaves, I am able to better notice the new growth on the plant, and it has even blossomed! We’ll see how it goes… But for now, it still seems to be growing really well. :). Orostachys Boehmeri ‘Keilo’. Garden by the Bay. Lithops y suculentas en Suecia. Blog of a plant-whisperer.

Lithops splitting | Blueskiez
https://blueskiez.wordpress.com/2013/08/23/lithops-splitting
August 23, 2013 in Gardening. It appears my plants like to change only when I am away. 1) My sunflower flowered while I was studying in Germany a few years back. Being an annual plant, it had died by the time I returned. I never got to see the flowers… sigh. 2) My Frithia Pulchra bloomed. When I was in Europe this year. By the time I got back, i only managed to see the dried up flower…. 3) When I was in South Korea last week, my sister texted me that my lithops have splitted! I didn’t have high hop...

Repotting results | Blueskiez
https://blueskiez.wordpress.com/2013/08/23/repotting-results
August 23, 2013 in Gardening. Remember this pot of lithops. That I got from the Amsterdam flower market in April 2013? After I got back from Europe, I left it outside my house and has not watered it since. Finally got around to repotting these babies today. One perished since then and another was on its way out too so I only repotted the remaining 20 lithops. Work in progress… Have to carefully pry the plants apart to prevent unnecessary damage to the fine roots. Orostachys Boehmeri ‘Keilo’. You are comm...

Hello from Paris! | Blueskiez
https://blueskiez.wordpress.com/2013/04/27/hello-from-paris
April 27, 2013 in Gardening. Just reached Paris and finally don’t have to depend on the hotel wifi anymore… (I have a France Orange line with data) So I wanted to show all of you my best buy this trip so far! Not sure if they will really bloom in Singapore. The shop owners said yes, but they might have underestimated our tropical weather. Oh well, we shall see soon enough. :). Some shops were selling other variety of plants, including some tropical plants and succulents. I combed the entire flower ma...

Frithia Pulchra bloom! | Blueskiez
https://blueskiez.wordpress.com/2013/05/19/frithia-pulchra-bloom
May 19, 2013 in Gardening. First time seeing a flower bloom on my baby toes! Actually when I received the plant a few months back, I wasn’t able to find much instructions about its care, so I took things into my own hands and watered as I pleased. I must be doing something right, because it has flowered for me! Lol* But it’s ok, I am sure it will bloom again soon. :). It bloomed for a few days and closes up at night. This is the flower at night. Orostachys Boehmeri ‘Keilo’. Garden by the Bay. Hi again...

Crassula Radicans | Blueskiez
https://blueskiez.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/crassula-radicans
September 4, 2013 in Gardening. Bought this tiny Crassula Radicans from Provence Village, Paju, South Korea. It’s really tiny! The pot diameter is just 4cm. The tips of the obovated leaves is a little reddish. Will be more red if I give it more sun. (Photos taken on 4th September 2013). It’s supposed to flower like this. Really looking forward to it flower someday! Have owned it since beginning of August, and it’s still holding well, although I have not much idea about its watering habits yet. Horticultu...

New batch of lithops (Sept 2013). September 4, 2013 in Gardening. Received my new plants from Conos Paradise this afternoon.
