A succulent newbie visits a greenhouse, can't stop looking and buying
Thanks to Rongyu VS Lianqiao for the material
First time visiting a greenhouse, everything seemed so novel~ And it was a certain greenhouse I'd heard about ever since falling into the hobby, following two big spenders around Auntie's mother plant greenhouse, super happy der~! The OP has been in the succulent hobby for 3 years starting with Sedum, and in the Haworthia truncata (12-volume) hobby for a bit over 2 years. I don't grow many, and my growing skills are even less worth mentioning - just a useless balcony grower. Originally, this greenhouse trip was a spur-of-the-moment idea; in less than ten minutes the succulent friends in the group had decided on the time and route, and agreed to go out and have fun together~
The pig trotter pointing out the scenery in the back... that's mine, no mistake, facepalm
I saw Auntie's famous Monroe, bigger than expected! The three friends visiting the greenhouse today all forgot to bring a coin, so the thing used for scale in the following photos is the rich guy's paw! Hahahaha~~~

Today's greenhouse trip was a spur-of-the-moment idea, and before going out I hadn't thought about the budget at all. On the way here, the rich guys and I joked with each other about protecting our wallets... Of course, we didn't succeed. The moment we walked in, we fell into the state of, ah~ I like this one~ ah~ I want that one too... Look, my spoils~ My favorite is that Kongmen Haworthia maughanii; in less than three seconds I decided to buy buy buy! What about the promise not to chop off my hands? Doesn't exist~
Of course, the rich guys and I are different. To be specific, I bought a red-striped Haworthia retusa from Auntie, and the rich guy bought a variegated red-striped Haworthia retusa... Originally the rich guys had planned to come buy Kalanchoe daigremontiana today; Auntie brought out a few for him to choose from, and I had to urge him, why even choose, get the big one! Successfully helped the rich guy chop off his hands~ [A barbell-like laugh should be here] In the end I couldn't resist posting a photo of the purple mirror Haworthia maughanii, said to be from Japan, very very expensive... but super beautiful!! Seeing this purple mirror, I started to enter a state of oxygen deprivation + system crash.
Squatting next to the purple mirror, crying, I said, Auntie, I like the purple mirror, Kongmen, Salt Lake City, Red Moon...... Auntie smiled without a word and gently stroked the dog's head: Little girl, stop looking~ The more you look, the more your heart aches. [Auntie, are you aware you're this sharp...] Finally, a few photos of my own balcony~ Currently 8 pots of Sedum, and 33 Haworthia truncata (12-volume) including the kindergarten ones; this is the maximum number one shelf can handle.

This is the empire I once fought bloody battles to build. Now raising it takes up space, and selling it would be a pity. I once spent until I was poor as a dog buying it, now I've raised it badly and find it ugly. There are thousands upon thousands of fine cultivars in the world, but only the expensive ones look the best~
