I went back to China for a month at the end of March and returned to Sydney in early May. It was already standard autumn here, and the succulents amazed me. For the next two weeks, my biggest focus was taking photos of them!

Let's start with this oddly shaped Fire Storm (Crassula capitella 'Campfire'). In March it looked like this

In May, look at this - how is this Fire Storm? This is a peacock spreading its tail feathers

This bright red patch, I decided to use it as a background to shoot a set of photos of my other small succulents

Now on display is Sedum 'Little Beauty' (Sedum pachyphyllum). This is March

By May it had already changed from yellow to orange

In March, Echeveria 'Suyan' was growing but was both sprawled and green

By May, although still not especially red, it had become a delicate rose

The Sapphire (Echeveria 'Sapphire') changed enormously. Before leaving I had placed it under the eaves and watered it by the soak method. When I came back, it had doubled in size

After two weeks in the sun it turned this dreamy purple

This one I finally figured out is Snow Claw (Echeveria 'Snow Claw'). It's clearly red, so I don't know why it's called that

After a month it became so compact, and it even has two flower cores. I've never seen what its flowers look like, so I'll keep them for now

The Sempervivum arachnoideum in March

In May it's still the same one, tight and dense

Pink Claw (Echeveria 'Pink Claw') is now so pink it's beyond words

Daruma Fukuniang (Cotyledon orbiculata 'Fukuniang') is now plump and has colored up

This is Huangli (Sedum adolphi), right? Yellow and tender

Laor (Sedum clavatum) has also colored up, getting better and better

I don't know the name of this one. It should also be a Haworthia type, right? It has always been kept in a full-sun spot

The unforgettable First Love (Echeveria 'First Love') is becoming more and more delicate

Pink Bluebird (Echeveria 'Bluebird') has always been a favorite, growing steadily

Lotus (Echeveria 'Lotus') in the sunlight?

Su Pi Ya (Echeveria 'Supia'), oh Su Pi Ya

Blue-Pink Tai Ge (Graptoveria 'Titubans') is uniquely beautiful

What is this? Is it an Aeonium type? Masters, please enlighten me

In March, Echeveria 'Violet Queen' was lush green

In May the queen put on her makeup

Rain Drop (Echeveria 'Rain Drop'), I waited for half a year after buying it for it to become beautiful

Now it has truly become beautiful

This is Debbie (Echeveria 'Debbie') in March. In summer it suffered from pests and diseases

In May I was moved by it. I have zero resistance to purple-toned succulents

A basket of succulents in March

A basket of flowers in May

In March, Tang Yin (Kalanchoe thyrsiflora) was already very red

In May it was even more orange-red, making people feel so warm

This is a Takasago something

Now it has become a big cabbage

This Qiuli (Graptosedum 'Francesco Baldi') is pink and tender beyond words

Look, my ball cactus has bloomed

This spider web is also quite unique

Hua Yue Ye (Echeveria 'Hua Yue Ye') has colored up even more

The most ordinary Jade Plant (Crassula ovata) is now also very beautiful

Guang Han Gong (Echeveria 'Guang Han Gong') has also become weathered after more than a month

Marcus (Graptosedum 'Marcus') has turned fully pink, and it and the Qiuli behind it are each more delicate than the other

The most ordinary Winter Beauty (Pachyveria 'Winter Beauty'), now it should be able to count as a noble concubine, right?

·

Black Prince (Aeonium 'Zwartkop') has a unique charm with its red and black

A big pot of First Love is in a completely different state from the small bottle

In the previous post, Afterglow (Echeveria 'Afterglow') in March was already stunning (see "Summer in the Southern Hemisphere, though hard to endure, the succulents grow madly!"), and now it is even more wrapped and even more astonishing.

I can't resist posting one more

This is the flower of Silver Queen (Echeveria 'Silver Queen'), set off by the blue sky, uniquely beautiful

Benba (Echeveria 'Benba') has already grown into a clump, so dense that no wind can pass through

I really like this one. I don't know if it's Green (Echeveria 'Green'). I feel it will be even more beautiful when winter comes

Snow Lotus (Echeveria laui) has turned from white to pink

This Christmas Echeveria (Echeveria 'Christmas') is already red enough to make your heart flutter

Otome Kokoro (Sedum 'Little Missy') is jelly pink

Chihuahua (Echeveria 'Chihuahua') has also grown up

Peach Egg (Graptopetalum amethystinum) has grown by more than one size, and has already been repotted
