Growing succulents from seeds
My Sinningia leuctroicha bulb decided to send out these colorful flowers today 🌸 It must really thrive out there in the summer heat.
This pot is watered once a week at the moment. Sometimes twice a week when it’s very warm outside and the leaves start drooping. Sinningia love water in summer, even though it’s a succulent (technically a caudiciform).
My Sinningia leucotricha has grown what looks like flower buds between the smallest leaf pair. Awesome! Last year, it grew flowers from one single stem, but now I get twice as many 🌸
My Sinningia leucotricha is growing new leaves and I can’t get over how fluffy they are. I think by now you must know I love fluffy plants. When the leaves grow bigger, the hairs will spread out a little, but they’re still soft to touch.
A lovely view.
My Sinningia leucotricha is flowering! The pale leaves and vivid flowers compliment each other so well.
It’s so fluffy I want to hug it!
My Sinningia leucotricha is looking mighty adorable right now. So many fluffy leaves are popping up at once.
Couldn’t for the life of me wake up the Sinningia leucotricha bulb I bought last year. It has been dormant since September last year and didn’t show any signs of waking up at all.
I think I found the problem.. there must have been something wrong with the soil in some way. I think it was too gritty. After I changed the soil and used more regular potting soil and less grit, it started to wake up. Phew.
The caudex on the biggest plant has grown from 1 to 3 cm in like 2,5 months. It’s going to surpass the adult plant I bought several months ago.
I decided to keep this one and give away the rest of the seedlings when they’re a bit older.
So much growth in such a short amount of time. The first pic was taken 2 months ago.
They’re doing extremely well at the moment and I’m starting to think it would be better if they were planted separately.
