Unexpected resting place ...

I found this lady bird resting peacefully protected under a cactus spines !!! I actually wondered how she managed to get under the spines as there very little space for such a bug. Another lady bird did not like spines as much as the first one so she rather chose one of my aloes.



Sempervivums for sale !

Enough is enough ! I have too many of these lovely plants ! My sempervivums have grown and spread so largely that they're now overflooding my parents' garden. As a result, I brought them to my own garden but there is no way that they keep expanding the same way in mine !! I've planted some of them in small plastic pots with the aim to sell them ASAP and make more room for new plants (cactus, flowers and so on).
