Good one! I had a flower last year and then the plant died. Fingers crossed yours does better.

Re: Cheiridopsis peculiaris
That's an impressive plant.
How old is it? Let's see how long I have to wait before my 2012 sown MSG seedlings will flower...

Excellent a piece of broken rock with a Dandelion stuck in it........
Very interesting looking plant. Sadly none of my Cheridopsis have produced a flower this year.

Mesembs are the most wonderful mimicry plants.
Ever hopeful, trying to grow plants from arid sunny climates in the UK!
Lithops, Haworthia, Adromischus, other south African succulents including Ceropegia and some Crassula.

Re: Cheiridopsis peculiaris
Congratulations Mike, an excellent display.
My C.peculiaris didn't flower this year, it acted a little peculiar! (well more than usual)
However, I did flower 3 other species, 2 for the first time which were C.cigarettifera at the start of the winter and C.brownii which has put a flower out this week!

Especially interested in Mesembs. small Aloes and South African miniatures and bulbs.
