Yes! I think they stole the show for me with this bunch. Really excited to spend some time to take pictures soon, especially of the Submammillaris!

I’ve told a few people it’s like collecting real life Pokémon 😂 The whole process is really fun & rewarding for me.

I hear you! I’d like to move out of state at some point & that is one problem that’d weigh a bunch on me.

Goodness, with the Moonstones I recently caught on that I didn’t research what kind of climate it originated from! Happened to me a few times…

Acclimated them to the sun, had em’ out there for months and realized there was absolutely no growth whatsoever since I first got them.

I threw them inside about a month ago and it’s been blowing up so much! If I left them out I think they’d pretty much be dormant the whole year 😂

I get a pretty great amount of light year round, I live in Florida, US. I personally hate the heat and blazing sun, but love that these get to take advantage of it!

I’ve been taking care of them for about a year now, last winter I moved them all in during the few nights we had temperatures under 35°F and would move them right back out during the day! Thankfully they’ve all handled it pretty well.

I do have a grow light for a Pink Moonstone I have & the little cuttings I try to grow & return outside!

Thank you for easing my concern a bit about getting my last batch 😂

Love these, my favorites are the tall one in the tan pot and the one on the bottom right! Does it have a distinct smell?

Love catching them hanging around the plants, I need to be more prepared with my camera early in the morning!

No need to apologize! I can relate a bit, I’m often extremely forgetful!

Side note: Didn’t want to make a new post so soon, but I was excited to share this with someone. Check this out, managed to take this early today!
