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!

Aloe Hybrids


Hybrid miniature aloe. Nikon D800, Tamron SP 90mm f/2.8 Di, Marumi CP.


Hybrid miniature aloe (Aloe sp.) plants. I don't have the names for these. Very slow growers. Seems to do well in partial shade.



















They are currently growing in 7.5 cm (3 in) pots. I don't give them any special care. Water and fertilizer needs are similar to other succulents. They're quite trouble-free plants.
