Dad's succulent-growing skills are so amazing, it's like he's cheating

Dad usually takes photos at home for me once every two weeks. Recently, Xishuangbanna has cooled down a bit too.

During the day it's around 30, and at night it's about 10, so the previously lukewarm state has finally changed a little!

Dad belongs to the "no watering, no happiness" tribe. On average he waters once a week, using a watering can and just sprinkling it right on top! I won't post comparison photos this time. Let me just casually share a few photos that show Dad's slightly improved photography skills.

First up is the "egg" that everyone likes. One is small and adorable, with a tender pink color. Another is a four-headed cluster with a stem, in a pot around 8, and the color is a bit purplish.

This one is the Haworthia in the house. The large pot is a 22-caliber spider plant pot.

Echeveria 'Shuxian' is truly beautiful! Dad took the photo yesterday morning. The leaves are still covered in dew that hasn't dried yet...!

The leaves of the white chicken are really pretty layer by layer, but it grew crooked, haha.

The creamy yellow peach is starting to turn red too. It was originally a very neat yellow peach, but Dad wanted to pull off leaves for leaf propagation, and ended up ruining it. The problem is that the leaves also broke off, 233.

A lush green "Bunba," no idea why it isn't turning red!

I said it had grown crooked and needed to be turned in another direction to get sunlight, but Dad just wouldn't admit it. The original green claw!

No idea what crawled on the flower center of the Echeveria 'Afterglow.' It looks a bit pitiful.

I absolutely love Echeveria 'Onslow' in this state, do I not? It looks so fairy-like, so fairy-like!

When Dad was taking down the shade net, the pole fell and snapped off a large head of the Echeveria 'Laui,' 233.

The old version of the little red clothes has grown just a tiny bit bigger, round and very cute.

The Echeveria 'Broccade' has bloomed. The red edges are still not very obvious.

The Debbi at home has already become an overgrown plague. They've all outgrown their 15 pots.

Purple Heart has also turned purple-red. The leaf propagations have already grown this big. Unfortunately, the mother plant in my free-shipping region passed away this summer.

By the way, what is this thing? Is it a little Himeko? It's starting to turn red.

A neat thick-leaved moon shadow. Why won't it produce little pups?

Ice Sister doesn't show any color at all. It's probably poor bloodline, after all it was cheap, 233.

A small pile of leaf propagations. At the time, when repotting, they couldn't be separated, so I just put a whole bunch together. I didn't expect them to be so cute now!

Let me finish with the big pot photographed two weeks ago. This is that same big pot from before.

Dad didn't take yesterday's photo well, and the big pot is too big and heavy, hard to move, and the light in that direction isn't very good. The result is a big pot of lush green vegetables, hahaha~~

It has grown too much and too large. Many of the big succulents inside have already been moved out and planted separately.
