Came home from the local cactus & succulent society fall sale with some cool new (to me) species…left to the club by a member that passed recently. Lots of rambling/cliff dwelling types that I really like.
1. Aloe tegetiformis
2. Aloe tororoana ?
3. Aloe millotii
4. Aloe inamara
5. Aloe affinis?
6. Aloe acutissima var. antanimorensis
7. Aloe madecassa
8. Aloe trichosantha
9. Aloe parvibracteata
10. Aloe suffulta
not pictured, couldn’t add more photos…one I don’t know the ID of but may be Aloe lineata. It’s kinda in rough shape, gonna let it acclimate and hopefully start growing happier.

addiction is not a silly way to describe having a favorite thing. saying "omg I'm such a [object or thing] addict!" or something like that when you really just mean it is something that you enjoy makes you shit. along with the already terrible stigmas surrounding addiction it makes it seem like something that people chose. it makes it seem like something that people just don't want to stop. stop using addiction and addicts as your punchline.
🐝 Me! I'm becoming addicted to plants 🪴! I feel like that would have made my Great Grandma Mel proud 🥰 . I'm taking it one plant at a time though, I need to make sure my ADHD can keep up with the plant load lol 😆 if I haven't killed any in a few weeks or a month then I have succeeded and it's time for a new plant baby 😅
Yesterday I decided I was going to bite the bullet and finally buy one of these. I know hoya compacta are ridiculously slow growing and the variegated ones are even slower. But I think they are just gorgeous. I was pleasantly surprised to find this little gem was 50% off (because they’re regularly $40!!!). Since it was on sale I also got some other plants! 😄
