Hi !

Welcome to my photo blog about succulents, and some cacti thrown in for good measure.

Along with photos, I will provide scientific/common names and information on their culture. Please, do not consider the information I provide as an authoritative source. It is from what I know about these plants, and I am NOT an expert! The cultural information is based on my experience in growing succulents and cacti in a tropical environment (Hawai'i) which is by no means an ideal climate for these plants.

Also, for you photography buffs (like me), I will provide pertinent camera data for the photos. All photos in this blog are SOOC (straight out of camera) and not post processed, except for downsizing and/or cropping.

Thanks for visiting!

Sansevieria parva 'White Variegated'


Sansevieria parva, White Variegated. Nikon D800, Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8D.


The 'White Variegated' form of Sansevieria parva is an excellent plant for pot culture. Fairly slow growing and a tight clumper, it averages about 30.5 cm (12 inches) tall. Best grown in bright light, but it also does well in semi-shade

'White Variegated' is a compact grower with beautiful green and white variegated leaves. It has not been bothered much by pests, except for an occasional infestation of root mealybugs. It is by far, the most beautiful sansevieria in the garden.
