Added a few new ones to the squad 😅 Will be relaxing a bit after having gotten these, feeling really happy with the diversity of what I have right now.

Wow that's a nice haul! I keep seeing people post their new additions and I'm having to reduce mine to fit in my new house with sparse windows. I'm definitely jealous! Do you typically put yours under lamps for the winter or do you live somewhere that you get enough light year round?
I get a pretty great amount of light year round, I live in Florida, US. I personally hate the heat and blazing sun, but love that these get to take advantage of it!
I’ve been taking care of them for about a year now, last winter I moved them all in during the few nights we had temperatures under 35°F and would move them right back out during the day! Thankfully they’ve all handled it pretty well.
I do have a grow light for a Pink Moonstone I have & the little cuttings I try to grow & return outside!
Oh wow, I have that same variety in your photo and it's nowhere near as big and beautiful! Glad to hear you've got a great natural lighting situation. I'm in Chicago and every year around this time I get super bummed out about having to bring in my plants and stick them under lights.
I hear you! I’d like to move out of state at some point & that is one problem that’d weigh a bunch on me.
Goodness, with the Moonstones I recently caught on that I didn’t research what kind of climate it originated from! Happened to me a few times..
Acclimated them to the sun, had em’ out there for months and realized there was absolutely no growth whatsoever since I first got them.
I threw them inside about a month ago and it’s been blowing up so much! If I left them out I think they’d pretty much be dormant the whole year 😂
