A few more to add before the end of the month.
Apologies for the flower stems... This Crassula finished flowering a while ago: Don't tell Colin about the pot colour for this Crassula... Then some different colours from some Echeverias. First one isn't quite black, despite it's name . Next one's altogether lighterMike T

...more Echeveria variation yet; this one's a pearl, at least in colour
Tolmanensis X pulidonis has a little more blue and red but not as much as pulidonis
The new leaves on Titanopsis calcarea have more colour than the older ones, same texture though
Then I suppose I'd better be PC and include a token cactus...Mike T

Re: August 2014 Colourful plants.
After long deliberation, there were an awful lot of pictures, I decided to go for a combination of good quality picture and plant, which cut the choice a bit. So, I chose Izrddr's Aeonium from his long line of pictures loaded up at 6.46 on Saturday 23rd August, the last picture of that set. I liked the light on the leaves, the quality of the shot and the condition of the plant, I also am very fond of Aeoniums but that did not influence my choice. Well done Izrddr.
Obsessive Crassulaceae lover, especially Aeoniums but also grow, Aloes, Agaves, Haworthias and a select number of Cacti.

Hi Tony, yes you are right. I was not paying attention again.
