Pickle Plant

This beautiful small succulent is now flowering. Just little yellow flowers. It's originally from Africa. Scientific name is Delosperma Echinatum.

CARE

Light: Bright, indirect light is preferred, but the plant can tolerate a few hours of direct sunlight. Insufficient light can lead to leggy growth.


Watering: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.


Humidity: Delosperma echinatum prefers low humidity and does not require misting.


Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F and 85°F (18°C and 29°C). Protect from frost and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).


Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix formulated for succulents or cacti.


Fertilizing: Fertilize sparingly, using a cactus or succulent fertilizer, once every 2-3 months during the growing season (spring and summer). Do not fertilize during the fall and winter.

Irises and yellow flowers blooming in the front yard. The irises are from Bob that he gave me about 15 years ago when Eric and Ryan were in Berkeley. We had dinner at his place. Despite his yard being very small, he was filled with flowers and all sort of exotic plants. The yellow flowers are self-seeded and they are spreading like wildflowers.  The ceramic birds are from Magdalene that I had purchased from the Artery.
