My succulent garden, apart from eating, drinking and daily necessities, I can stay here all day looking at the succulents

The pots were all bought cheaply, some are not breathable, and two of them are our rice bowls. I pestered my uncle to drill the holes bigger. I counted and it's not even 100

I sorted out the ones that froze to death in winter and the ones that didn't grow well, repotting and changing the soil. Mixing the soil really wore me out. I thought I would use a lot of soil, but in the end I didn't even use half of it

Adding soil with all my might

Then I planted for a whole afternoon. The sun in early March was already so scorching that my hands got tanned like this. I posted it on WeChat Moments begging for sympathy, but instead of looking at my succulents, they all said my hands were too chubby. So exhausting

Even though I got tanned like this, it was still very worth it, because they have always been trying to look beautiful for me

Soul

In the morning there is still dew on them, and sunlight is the best beauty filter

All the photos were taken with a phone, and there was no beauty filter either

In order to photograph the dew, I got up really early this morning

Agave utahensis (Ebony)

But I feel there were still many succulents whose dew dried before I could photograph them

Echeveria 'Alba Beauty', it was a beauty when it arrived, and it has stayed beautiful all along

Echeveria 'Original Carola'

Echeveria 'Togen' cristata, this is what someone bought me as an apology because they didn't come to my wedding

Sedum pachyphyllum (Jelly Beans), I really like this pot. It got frostbitten last time and still has many wounds, but that doesn't stop it from getting more and more beautiful, more and more charming

Echeveria 'Frosty Morn', grown from a leaf cutting

Echeveria 'Onslow Rose', it was even more beautiful a few days ago. It got a bit of rain these two days, so the color is not as pink, but it is still my favorite little fairy

Echeveria 'Allen', with a very special shape

Graptopetalum paraguayense (Ghost Plant), very pretty

Echeveria 'Magic Man', I never liked it, but later someone gave me a pot, and I found it is actually quite beautiful

Graptopetalum 'Inada-hime', the leaf center is pink

Echeveria 'Sword Snow White' with black edges, lots of pups

Here's a close-up

Echeveria 'Qiluo' cristata, also a gift from a friend

The biggest succulent, I super love it. For my birthday gift I specifically asked someone to send me a succulent

Would you like a cup

A tiny Pansy

Sedum 'Banana Beauty'

Echeveria 'Meixing' variegata, still bearing the merit of making it through winter

Echeveria 'Purple Delight'

Echeveria 'Dark Ice'

The super ethereal Echeveria 'White Moon Shadow'

Just potted, looking forward to it becoming beautiful

White Line, this pot is very distinctive

Echeveria 'Cream Peach', the leaf edges also got frostbitten in winter, but it is getting better and better looking, and the leaf shape is getting shorter and shorter

Close-up

Sedum adolphi (Golden Sedum) from a leaf cutting

Echeveria 'Snow Angel'

Echeveria 'Riga', the blood spots are super pretty. It fought through the summer, turning from green grass into a flower

Echeveria 'Osmanthus Sweetheart', also full of fairy-like elegance

A tiny one, very beautiful, I don't know what it's called anymore

Pachyphytum 'Mikazuki'

A strangely shaped Sedum rubrotinctum (Pork and Beans)

Pachyphytum 'Peach Beauty'

The freshly repotted Echeveria 'Wax Peony' really has unlimited potential. I always thought I couldn't grow this color, but as long as you give it time, it will show you beauty

Echeveria 'Purple Pearl', and finally I hope the succulents can make it through the summer safely. It's okay if they're a bit ugly, being alive is hope
