Winter sunshine

Post by rodsmith »

I was pleased when my Faucaria tigrina opened its flower yesterday in the afternoon sun. I brought the plant indoors last week in the hope that the bud would open.

In my rock garden, in bloom at the moment, the flower opens when there is sun in the afternoon ...
