I bet this will end up my collection anyways. LOL I had to talk him into some of them but I got him 4 different euphorbias and have a large bowl we'll plant them in.

I will admit that for years I refused to even look at succulents. I hated the look of small pot syndrome. I already have a fatal case of the large pot syndrome. But in the last year, I have been infected. Small pots, small plants, small money.

They are so small, you think you can just hide them even from yourself where they won't take up any room. I now have tables of them. I look at the little pots as soon as I go to a nursery now. I do not even know if I can keep them alive long term yet. Now I am thinking I need to buy big pots for groups of them, part of my need to buy big pots.

Here is one I got the other day. My first haworthia. I hope my last. When I saw it, I grabbed it as if it was a diamond. Even better, a variegated diamond.

I have several of these, have for years. Here's one I got that was a single like yours a few years back. All those stems are the start of blooms, you can see a couple of the tiny white ones.

Here's another interesting one that I just cut off the bloom stem. Need to find the name.
I just tuck the pots in here and there all around the garden, kind of fun to see them as I wander through.

An aloe?

Yours do not rot in winter? I have such a rot problem in winter. Even last winter when we had little rain, I had plants rot.

I lost a few, not many though. Some I just pull in under the patio awning.
