This is my current collection of succulents.

This is my current collection of succulents. Most of these are the ones who survived the humidity of Talladega as well as the move. It's only a fraction of the number of plants I used to have, but it's a very manageable number to care for and I'm grateful that they are still with me.

Bottom left (in a cage because it's wily - just kidding; it's to keep the cats from chewing it) was gifted to me by Sabrina. I repotted it yesterday and I hope it will be happy. I still don't know what it is. 😂 I'll get a close-up soon and ask if anyone can identify. The jade plants on the top left shelf were given to me by a coworker before I left Cincinnati. I repotted them yesterday, too. I spent some time cleaning and arranging my shelves and I am pretty pleased with how it came out.

I don't love the look of having my plants in totes, but it has made watering much easier and more effective. I feel like I finally cracked the code for how to make them survive in the new environment (after over a year here 😳). My confidence that I won't kill them is finally good enough that I felt comfortable ordering 2 succulents I'd like to have. I don't see me growing my collection back to what it used to be, but there are a few beauties that I miss.

Maybe I can get some better photos later, but for now I'm thrilled with how the catio / sunroom looks. ❤️
