Simple Sunday – And a Succulent to Boot

Posted on July 19, 2020 by Shoes

I planted this succulent in a Saguaro boot over a year ago and have watered it sparingly.

I have no idea if the recent sprouting of the tendril is a good thing or not, but it is quite pretty. The blue behind it is our old pool light cover, that instead of throwing away, I added to my patio plant stand for a splash of color.

Always worth celebrating life! For me it is quite the opposite: plants are alive and well, I go to sleep and the next morning they are brown and dead! PS I love that you kept the cover, gives a touch of colour!

  Succulents are a type of plant that I have a greater than 50% chance of keeping alive, which is pretty exciting for me.
