After reading through this interesting thread, I'd like to post a few images from it, and a few others;
These 2 are a reminder of this species common name - 'Pygmy Joshua Tree'
Here is the true Pygmy Joshua tree - Yucca (Clistoyucca) brevifolia 'var. jaegeriana':
Despite this question being OT, what is the name of the Pachyphytum shown here?
It reminds me of this cultivar Pachyphytum 'Sweet Dumpling'
Or this one Pachyphytum 'Cheese Sweetball'
Sedum multiceps advice please

Re: Sedum multiceps advice please
Thanks for sharing this, I haven't seen that Yucca before and the similarity is indeed striking! I wish Sedums grow better in my odd indoor setup (I suspect it's too warm in winter for many, but I will give them another go one day).TomInTucson wrote: ↑Tue Jan 09, 2024 1:41 am After reading through this interesting thread, I'd like to post a few images from it, and a few others;

It's the thin blue form apparently but doesn't grow particularly well for me. Sedum rubrotinctum is a bit hardier here and just does that little bit better. S. pachypyllum has to come indoors over winter. The photo below is the one currently on the kitchen window sill. Sedum allantoides is a good alternative too if you're looking into growing something similar.TomInTucson wrote: ↑Tue Jan 09, 2024 1:41 am
