Gardening is like cooking. To improve, you need to be willing to make mistakes and experiment. Also, common names are garbage. Zone 9b, West Sac, CA.

This #Bryophyllum-daigremontianum is at least over a year old and has remained tiny af--currently no more than 3" tall. Seeing recent new growth (swipe left to see progress--quite a bit of growth since seven weeks ago), maybe since we've moved from the mild SF Bay Area to scorching hot Sacramento. Before I know it, I'll be up to my ears in babies. #MotherOfThousands #DevilsBackbone #AlligatorPlant #MexicanHatPlant #succulent 17June2019

@wishfulplanter They look even better when mature. Like little palm trees.

My #BryophyllumDaigremontianum doesn't seem to know that it's supposed to be relentlessly invasive. I've had this little guy for over a year and it has barely grown. Despite its lack of growth, I was surprised to see little plantlets along the leaves.
