Hi Luther I am admin of your webpage karacactus. I know you have great collection especially Echeverias and Haworthias.I havent this kind yet but this is very lovely. I am working on inter-generic succulents with my friends from ICN too. www.crassulaceae.net I am living near mediterranean seaside and especailly Grapto and pachyphytum kinds are very hardy for Mersin city's climate.Summertime (July and August)is very hot and high humidity in here. I will upload xPacheveria "Calypso" picture and others today too.
Hi Meryem, Thanks for your comments. I check out www.crassulaceae.net regularly and find it very helpful. I checked out the 'Calypso' pictures and am very impressed with the flowers. Hopefully we can find a source in California while traveling there next month. However most nurseries are very limited in what they have and if they have anything, it's been bought up by the Koreans - who are also our regular customers.
Mersin sounds like it would be an interesting place to live - and to visit, but a place where you'd want to head to the mountains in late summer. Sort of like the Sonoran Dessert in August - 120 F and periodic monsoons - though it doesn't look like you get to those temps. Here, our average highs for August are at most 80F and our summers are very dry.
I really like this plant.
