Wow! So many blooms and buds! Its beautiful.

I had to giggle at the name... I immediately thought of Taco Bell when I read Tacitus bellus, and then thought of the Chihuahua dog.

Shelly221,
I have to agree with you on the name... but the name just makes me want one more! I have a Chihuahua dog that looks a lot like the one that use to do the Taco Bell commercials...she is getting old as does not get around that good any more but I love her just as much... if not more.... as the first day I bought her.
Since I am not that far from Mexico surely I can find one of these at a nursery some where in my area. I am on a mission........ LOL........(:>)

summer1953,
If I can find it over here, you MUST be able to find it over there, seen it under another name here Graptopetalum Bellum, but that dont sound so good does it LOL.

pete2255,
That is what I am hoping... I will make note of the other name. Your right that name does not ring my bell. That one is beautiful as well though. I don't care what name I find it as it will be called a Chihuahua Flower/ Plant. I am getting more excited... LOL As you can see it does not take much to make me happy. (:>)
