Lookin' great, Tina!
I was in Home Depot this afternoon and was tempted, but I don't have any more room indoors - I really can't wait to see how this all comes out for you in the end!

Scirpus cornus "Fiber Optic Grass" and Junkus "Corkscrew Rush"

Tina, those are all awesome plants!!!

Tina - I planted 2 curly rushes (that's what my tag said but looks just like yours) last summer next to my bathtub pond - I loved them, and see that they are surviving our winter just fine so far! Need to get some more this year!

Enjoy yours too!

My favorite is the Pink one also. You have a great collection.

These are just the one's I've purchased in the last couple of weeks. Over the last year or so I've planted dozens around my yard.
Some have been nibbled to death. It's a learning process. I have to live with critters (outside) because I'm snug up against national forest land. So I'm seeing what they will or won't eat. Then there are lot's of things with thorns out there that I try to keep to a minimum. I love learning new things.

I love the pink varigated one, but they are all nice! Are most of these easy to start from cuttings?
I don't know very much about succulent's but do have a very large collection of cactus and know about them.

Some succulents start easily from cuttings or even a single leaf or stem that falls on fertile ground. Some will only grow from offsets (babies that grow near the base) like the echevarias. But most gift you with lot's of babies.

I posted these before in blooming 9 but they belong here now.
echevaria hybrid

And Echevaria hybrid "Fancy Frills"

And a jug of cacti and donkey tails

Aeoniums in a planter (unknown variety)

I love these because they look prehistoric with their arial roots.

Here is an Aloe vera. It's about three feet tall and sending up a bloom stalk. Notice the cut leaf in front. We do use them medicinally all the time.

We have aloes all over. This one is about ready to bloom.

And lot's of century plants as well. No blooms right now.
