Just a quick update to say that the Echeverias in the photo are still flowering, one month after taking the photo. I didn't record the actual start date of their floral display, but I think it was some time in mid May.

This is the first year I have had them outside some are really thriving and have put out lots of new growth, I had to have them off the ground out of the way of the tortoises who would have nibbled them even if it made them ill :wink: .
