Ten years ago, a fleeting glimpse in the mundane world began my bond with succulents. Time flies in the snap of a finger, and so much in the world has changed, yet my love for succulents has never changed.

During this time, I learned photography, to document life, to document your beauty.

Xiuyan small old stem, in last year's photos you still looked like a young child, and now you are elegant and graceful in every way.

When I first knew you, I did not understand why you were called Fairy; only after savoring you carefully did I realize you truly are so beautiful that you do not seem like something of this mortal world.

A little daughter at home has just grown up, the little white chrysanthemum I raised with my own hands.

Watching you each grow, slowly becoming more beautiful, I always hope you will be beautiful in an even more special way.

So I began trying to hand-make flower pots myself; the one and only you should be matched with a one-and-only heartfelt effort to complement your face.

I loved drawing since I was young, but to this day, my childhood skills are all wasted; when I first started, I actually felt at a loss as to where to begin.

Once I made up my mind, all that remained was to persist, to rediscover that original love; it is never too late.

From simple to difficult, slowly exploring, gradually finding joy in it; a single color, a single line, are all the language and music with which I want to praise this world.

With a devout heart and a beautiful mood, I spread out brushes, paints, palette, plain pots and other materials and tools one by one on the tabletop, and felt my heart become light, transparent and quiet along with it.

Only a gorgeously painted pot can match the magnificent appearance of the Rose Queen.

A thumb pot, planted with a super mini little blue bean.

Favorite pots paired with favorite succulents, pot by pot accumulating a kingdom that belongs only to me.

And you too, the cheese I especially love.

The snow fairy that can still maintain its condition in spring.

The evening glow that becomes immortal with thin leaves.

Flowers bloom and are easy to see.

Every variety has its own unique beauty.

Spring is not your most beautiful season; I look forward to when autumn comes around again, when you are reborn in nirvana as the perfect you.

The world is so big that a lifetime is not enough to see it all, but when you possess the beauty within your own heart, perhaps you possess the whole world.
