A Plethora of Pleiospilos - and Haworthia Updates

I couldn't resist taking a picture yesterday of this little bunch of Pleiospilos 'Royal Flush'. No need for flowers on these little gems...

Also, for those who check back occasionally at our nursery web site for new Haworthias, we posted new updated pages today. At least for a while they'll be up to date!

Pliospilos nellii 'Royal Flush' seedlings

Not a very good picture because I had to enlarge it too much and it's a bit grainy. These are a few of the seedlings of 'Royal Flush' that have been doing very nicely this summer. They seem to be among the few who have really liked our cool summer days. Personally, I could use a little more warmth before we head into the long gray days of winter. Oh well, we'll get what we get.

Enjoy your plants.

Pleiospilos nelii 'Royal Flush' flower

I think these flowers on this plant are almost outrageous. The purplish plant body with little dots all over topped off with this other-worldly flower. If a child were to draw this in a school art project to draw a real-world plant, he or she would likely be told to go back to the drawing board!
