This is Aloinopsis schooneesii. The plant arrived this morning so I duly potted it up.  A nice plant I thought. I popped into the greenhouse this afternoon and was very surprised to find this.  Hopefully the dust will be off the flower when it opens more fully tomorrow. |

Aloinopsis schooneesii has decided to present another flower. This is its second day so I'm hoping tomorrow it will open wider.

A very late sowing of Aloinopsis malherbei has produce these little chappies.  The true leaves are already showing the signs of teeth (knobbly bits). |

Very nice Fred! You can see how God left his finger impressions in those leaves, as if they were hand sculpted from clay.  dvg |

This is the sole survivor of the Aloinopsis malherbei seedlings. It was a late sowing but the main problem was that they dried up over winter. This coming winter I will be a little more generous with the watering regime for all the seedlings. The non-lithop types of mesemb in general appear to need to be watched for drying out too much irrespective of age.  |
