Being Social

Just a li'll ol' silver squill (ledebouria socials) hanging out with some molded wax agve (echeveria agavoides or lipstick echeveria). It's almost summer here and the sun's out, so why not?

My silver squill is flowering!! Which is kind of weird since it’s February and the internet says this plant should flower in the spring or summer, but ok.
