Hello fellow succulent lovers! I am very excited to be here and cannot wait to start sharing my collection with you and seeing all of your pretty succulents!
I enjoyed my visit to the nursery this weekend and added a little to my collection
One thing I love is different pots. Keep it colourful and exciting! Since I have moved around a bit, I also prefer to keep them in pots, so that I am allowed to take my succies with me when I move 😁
Lithops and cacti have always been my favourite kind of succulents. Since Lithops are indigenous to South Africa it makes it so much more satisfying to own them. Here in Pretoria, there is a nursery, Gariep Plants that specialises in Aloes and rare succulents. I almost lost myself and wanted to buy EVERYTHING!!
Anyhow, back to the reason for my post. After buying my new Lithops and a really pretty cactus, I decided to repot them all.
Ready to dig in
The 2 moon cacti had to be refilled. The Lithops I have planted over with space for their roots to grow. As I have a bit of OCD, they HAD to be planted in a pattern.
Repotting done
I was very pleased with how they all turned out, and the 2 cacti in the new 'sitting man' pots look adorable!
I like having long nails and I have no problem with dirt under my nails after gardening
Thank you all for reading my post. Hope I did not bore you roo much!

@michieme que lindo trabajo, te quedó hermoso 💚. Al igual que tu, no tengo ningún problema en la suciedad que queda luego de la jardinería 💅🤜🏻🤛🏻. Saludos 🙋🏻♀️.
Thanks so much! I also love how they turned out.
Yeah I know some people have a problem with the dirt, but I don't mind at all 😁
Those sitting ceramic pots are gorgeous - I love them !
Thank you so much!! I love them too! There are more colours available that I still need to get, but that's for another time 😁
Hahah, so you had to plant them in a pattern? :D
well, they are nice, and you have chosen some nice pots :)
Yes, I HAD to. 😋
Thank you very much! Appreciate it!
I can relate to " I HAD" lol 😂
🤣🤣 Glad I amnot the only one
😂😂😂 no, not the only one 😄
There is something fun about digging around in dirt! Gorgeous little pots, they have such a playful element to them.
Welcome! Great plant choices you have made
Thanks for the welcome! And thanks for the comment 😁
succulent growers community decided to come help bully flag my call to help against bullying... how wonderful a community you are... which coward is hiding behind this downvote?
You going to die of butthurtedness over a 0.046 DV?
not at all just curious why you would run accross all my posts and downvote everything, if you look at the author and beneficiaries I get 5% average of most of them so you are hurting others with your account, the community account and the dragonslayer account that seems to follow your DV. I will stop and hope we can all move past this being more professional
those r very beautiful looking cacti🏜️
Thanks!!! I just love them
Omg, lithops are my fav, all time fav, I had some beautiful ones and then my kitten decided they make good snacks ;)
I used to pot them in pretty mugs and cups too, make cheaper options for pots :)
I would LOVE to do the cups thing, but my problem is that I want cups that look like they come from Alice in Wonderland, so they are not that cheap 🤣
Oh I feel you!!
