LOL More bucket beauties, Earl! Lovely shots. Numbers 2 and 3 look like the plants we call hen and biddies, but I didn't know they bloomed.

I wouldn't want to try them to find out, Ron. The leaves are full of liquid. Not sure if these are hen and biddies. Could be another kind of succulent. By the way, I see we hillbillies down here in the southern USA are the only ones who call them hen and biddies. LOL

Love these, Earl. Thanks for sharing. I have never seen a succulent bloom and would have never imagined their blooms to look so delicate! Making note to self to buy some succulents to put outside this summer to see if I can enjoy some of their blooms up close and personal.

Great blooms Earl. When I first saw #1 I thought Cardinal flower till I saw the plant. Then I read what everyone had said and I think the blooms are on the other smaller leaved succulent and not on the Hen and Biddies Donna.

I thought so, too. Do you think that is the common Jade Plant?

No Not a Jade plant. I took a stroll through succulents online but didn't find one with this flower. The closes foliage as that smaller one was a moss rose and I know they do not have flowers with a deep throat like this one. So your guess is as good as mine. I give up.
