Whoa!  How have I not blogged in over a month?!  You guys never told me that this "blog" thing would be so hard to keep up...  Heh, heh.  Actually, there's been a lot going on in GS-land these days, some of which are related to succs and some of which are related to the sundry illnesses that have befallen me in the last two or three months. 

My girlfriend and I made a pilgrimmage to a couple of succulent nurseries we've been wanting to visit, and I'll give you the full scoop on those in a post later this month.  But for now, I'll just share two plantings I made last week after those trips.

The first contains sempervivums Neptune and Nightwood, with which I am equally in love.  It's a tiny little planting, as you might be able to tell.  Maybe 6 " by 3" or so:

The second contains succs I procured at each of the three marvelous nurseries we visited.  I'm crazy about the particular combination of colors in this one: 

I'm going to sign off now, and go to the "infectious diseases" specialist who will (I hope) pinpoint the cause of my recent maladies and malaise.  Stay sweet, succ-ers!
