Re: Alien Invasion !!
Perhaps not technically a Succulent - Winter grower/flowerer Massonia depressa.

Re: Alien Invasion !!
Hi Trevor
Veryy nice, I have a couple of Monadeniums & they are very more-ish but not that common it seems.
Just been given a Massonia depressa ( tiny) bulb so any cultivation tips ?.
I have to put a big label in the pot so I don't put a cutting in on the bulblet as I 'm bound to forget that it's a winter grower.

Re: Alien Invasion !!
Can't help with tips as I've only had it a few months Tina. Doesn't seem to be fussy though, it's on a top shelf so it get's plenty of winter light and I water it when I remember, which isn't very often at all. Be interested in seeing how yours goes coming out of dormancy... Good Luck !
