My Echeveria elegans flowring for the first time!
Echeveria "Lipstick" also flowering for the first time even though it suffered severely from the hailstorm we had
My Echeveria imbricata after the severe hailstorm we had at the end of July - they should all have been plump, beautiful and flowering now
Haworthia cooperii var transiensis - first flower
Pleiospilos Nelli first Flowers since I acquired her
The Vygies never fail to delight! Mesembryanthemum Lampranthus (Delosperma cooperi)
As soon as I brought the Rattail cactus outside from indoors where it spent the winter, it started sprouting it's beautiful flowers
The gorgeous flower of the Rattail cactus (Aporocactus-flagelliformis)
One of my Echeveria imbricata is sporting yellow flowers, a first in the 20-odd years I've been growing them. It is also making a baby along one of the flower stems, I think that is called "sporting".
Just before the sun gets to it, the Mammillaria's flowers are still closed. This one is now starting to form a very nice ring around the crown.

A sport in the plant world is a genetic
mutation that results from a faulty chromosomal replication. The results of the
mutation are a segment of the plant that is distinctly different from the parent
plant in both appearance (phenotype) and genetics (genotype). The genetic
change is not a result of unusual growing conditions; it is an accident, a
mutation. In many cases the new trait can be handed down to the organism’s
offspring.)
