OP Tonya Member Joined: May 2006 Holden Beach, NC	I posted a pic of this plant in "Mysteries" and ZuZu identified it as a Ghost plant (Graptopetalum Paraguayense). I knew it had a stalk growing, but figured that being pulled out of it's pot and new place and all that it would die and I would have to wait. NOT!! Almost overnight the stalk grew to twice what it had been and within a couple days look what I saw!! plants/156_5691.jpg" alt="[Linked Image]" class="post-image" style="height:auto!important;max-width:100%!important;"/> It is nice to see something blooming with the weather so cold!
