Dinteranthus microspermus ssp. puberulus

As I've been known to do as Winter approaches, I'm pulling this photo from archives. It's a wonderful African mesemb called Dinteranthus microspermus ssp. puberulus. These are summer growers and they're quite easy to grow...good drainage and don't over-water, especially during the winter!
Had an enjoyable evening with other Lewis & Clark College alumni (my undergraduate school, where I majored in philosophy - many years ago). Tomorrow night (or, I guess it's now tonight) I'll be with the Oregon Cactus & Succulent Society. For you local cactus & succulent people, hope to see you there!

  1. Hola Lutero espero que te vaya muy bien en tu reunión, en cuanto a la flor esta muy hermosa y tiene su parecido a los rayito de sol, un abrazo.

  2. Both last night and tonight were enjoyable meetings. Now I have to prepare a worship service and sermon for Sunday morning.
    The flowers are nice aren't they? This was an old photo from last year. I notice today that they're just budding up and we'll have flowers again in about a week. A nice surprise as we head into the colder months.
    Always appreciate your comments. Peace.
