Thank you!Omg! Alicia! They are amazing!!!!
When saving fruit for future use it's important not to break the seal where the fruit meets the pad. If the bottom of the fruit is broke or cut open they don't last as long.(hope that makes sense) All I do is bag em and put in the refrigerator. Here is a pic of some of the 282 I removed on the 19 of June If they have started to ripen on the plant they may not last as long as the greener ones picked right after blooming.I can usually pick fruit up until the first freeze even after they have ripened and turned purple.I have never froze the fruit, but I did store some in a closed container full of water in the refrigerator for several months, they stayed firm but smelled different.Have you ever tried freezing or otherwise preserving your prickly pear fruit? My season for them here is way too short and they have not kept well for me
These aren't the invasive ones like the yellow. I also have several varieties of Tall Bearded iris.I love your irises Alicia! The blush pink!ahhhh!!!! Live the columbines too, all I have is the yellow all over the place. Get lots of babies of that one every year

Whenever I go to home Depot or Lowe's I always pickup the leaves from the succulents that broke off and are just laying around. I bring them home and try to get them to root.My wife and I (Mostly I) start taking interest in succulents. So we started with few type below, They are from both Home depot and Lowe's.

Great idea. I may start to doing that also.Whenever I go to home Depot or Lowe's I always pickup the leaves from the succulents that broke off and are just laying around. I bring them home and try to get them to root.
Very nice!! We just came back from a weeklong vacation to find our yard an absolute jungle. And we didn't even get a lot of rain. We're also redoing our kitchen this summer, so my yard looks terrible this year, so unkempt.My wife and I (Mostly I) start taking interest in succulents.

Thank you Yvonne. Let me try to looking for them.It might be a type of echiveria.
Succulents can ALMOST live on air, so you won't need to repot right away, however, the root system may get bigger than the pot allows, and it would then need to be repotted.So, I’ve seen those cute ones in the galvanized pots that you hung up.
Do you need to repot them?
I always want to grab a few(not cheap) but I’m too lazy to repot them. Thoughts?
