I have no idea if this is a succulent or cactus and what it's name is......
I got it from my tennis friend Christine who gave this in a container with other plants.
One of my cats thought it was cat grass and destroyed the other plants. He/she even bit off the tips of these leaves!
I saved it and now it is blooming. Wow, how special after all this poor plant has been through.
But that is the amazing thing about cacti they are expert survivors. They also survive my care of plants and the attacks of my cats.
I have been on school camp last week.That's why I was not around. It was fun but my........I came home exhausted.

I have been sleeping a lot this weekend.
I am still tired, but I still have one week of summer holiday before I fly to Panama Sunday.
So I hope to catch up some sleep and do some blog visits too. I am behind with everything it seems.
Hope you are all doing fine and see you all soon.
Happy Cactus Monday!
To see who else has cactus fun to share visit Teri, our chief cactuteer ;)
Yes, those cactus are really survivors. I am not sure what you have either but I have seen them before.
ReplyDeleteThe pix of that sleeping lion is hysterical!!!
Rest up Marianne.
❤HCM❤
HCM to you too! That is a type of Haworthia. Can't tell exactly what kind but I am sure of that. And that is one sleepy kitty! Wonderful shot!
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing that your cat didn't get sick Marianne. Cats are as resilient as cacti. HCM.
ReplyDeleteYour succulent sure looks like a Haworthia fasciata, from Cape Province, South Africa.
ReplyDeleteOh...this reminds me...have you ever been to the Canary Islands??? The aeoniums grow wild there...I would love to see that one day!
I hope you can have a restful next week off. You need it after being at a school camp!
Happy Cactus/Succulent Monday!!!

dear marianne i do hope you get the rest you need (lions really do know how to take time for themselves!)
ReplyDeletehappy cactus monday, your plant looks very familiar, and so healthy!
I've seen that plant, but I don't know its name. I love the pattern on its leaves. And the cat has the right idea. ;)) Rest up! xo Pam
ReplyDeleteCacti are very hardy. It's the only thing that stays alive in my house! I keep forgetting to water my plants. Have a great rest and a great trip to Panama.
ReplyDeleteSo wonderful that this plant survived!
ReplyDeleteLove the lion photo.
Have a great rest up before work.

ReplyDeleteI love your cactus! I have never seen one like it....it will be a nice addition to your Cacti Menagerie! I wonder if it blooms....
The "sleeping lion"..... hysterical! I have spent a few days in "that mode" too... it felt good! You were a great Mum to be there for der "Wunderkind" and his mates at Camp!

ReplyDeleteYou give so much love to all living things, it's no wonder it came back.
ReplyDeleteI love that sleepy Leonine Lioness ;) I feel the same way lately!

Have a wonderful evening.
