. . . from the nursery yesterday:


Okay, I know what you're thinking. Has she finally lost it? That looks like a big gray toe--with fungus. And it sort of does. It's the kind of plant only a mother plant could love. Homely but cute too. Especially cute when you see what it does . . .



The toe opens up! It is actually called a split rock and according to the label it gets pink satiny flowers. Looking much cuter now isn't it?

I've been making a lot of succulent plant pots lately. For one thing, you can get such an interesting variety of succulents, and for another thing, they don't require much water. In other words, you can practically abuse them and they still look happy. And the flower spikes they get are always a nice surprise.

So now to go plant my toes . . .
talk to me . . .
