The story of this plant:
We moved into our Hollywood apt. back in ‘99. It wasn’t until ‘02 that I realized this plant was behind our building. About a two years later, I learned that it didn’t belong to my next door neighbor. So I adopted it. I had no idea how to care for it, but I know that he laundry bucket it was in, wasn’t cutting it, so I repotted it. I had no experience with succulents at that time.
It wasn’t until last year that I learned what the plant was called AND that it bloomed. Seeing as how I had never seen a flower near it, I thought it would never bloom. Imagine my surprise when I saw the buds appear a few weeks ago. Now, I’m completely thrilled to see them opening. What a beautiful plant!
