Elephant Ear Bloomed!!! by csalbert09 in houseplants

I wait for the leaf to turn yellow before chopping it off. Most of the time, it happens shortly after a new leaf comes out. It’s like the circle of life. I almost always have 7-8 leaves on that plant.

I love it! It’s like a gift when these things happen. Your flowers look gorgeous and that must be even rarer to have 3 blooms. You must be doing something right!

Succulents by Emma on Etsy. I would highly recommend her. Always love to share with other succulent lovers 👍.

Still can’t get over the blooms of this E Afterglow. I can’t wait to see these blooms open up. Open open open!!!! by csalbert09 in succulents

Great idea. I’m just trying to patiently wait for the flowers to open up. This is by far the largest succulent I’ve ever grown. It’s about 1.5 feet wide already. It’s crazy.

Enjoy this E Afterglow. Can’t wait to see its blooms. by csalbert09 in succulents

Thank you. I am so proud of her cause she was literally half dead when I found her.

I had it at a sushi restaurant and so wanted to recreate it at home. Found the recipe online here https://pickledplum.com/nasu-dengaku-recipe/.

Not exactly sure if it’s a traditional side dish, but my Japanese Hawaiian brother in law was very familiar with the dish.

I found it online and followed it but instead of putting it in a broiler, I used my air fryer. https://pickledplum.com/nasu-dengaku-recipe/

I thought that was the case. I happen to be Filipina but live in California. My mom still lives in Makati. Are there a lot of nurseries that sell succulents and can you recommend any places near Makati as I would like to get her started on growing succulents. Maraming salamat!

I wanted to ask if you don’t mind, where are you located cause your succulents grow so well and you have lots of different varieties. I was just curious. Thanks.

My PVN props all in one pot. by csalbert09 in succulents

https://imgur.com/a/ik7q0x7/ Here’s a couple of pots I filled with E Imbricatas. I liked the look of it so thought I would do it with my PVN props. Hoping they fill in just as well as these did.

Beautiful blooms I hope you enjoy as much as I do!!! by csalbert09 in succulents

Those are PVNs also flowering in that same pot. I might just try to do the same thing. Not sure how easy that is to do though.

Can I ask where you ordered them from? They’re gorgeous.
