It's nice to see what the flowers look like, mine hasn't flowered yet 😊

Angie I have had mine for well over twenty years and this is the first time. It seems to be due to our long-lasting drought. I think they are trying to extend their life by putting out seed. Quite a few Succulents have done this for the first time in the last few years. @angiecrazycatlady

@Acetaker this is about 4' tall now. I had an older one that must have gotten a bug in the roots, because it suddenly died from a dead base, but it was about 15 years old and at least 5' tall. All my others are cuttings from that original one.
