Something Fishy Going On

My daughter Vanessa helped pick out this fish planter for our front porch last year, and I finally got around to planting a Manfreda succulent last October. Ann & I chose the Manfreda from the Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center because it can survive without water for weeks between our visits, and tolerates the shade under our porch. It managed to barely survive our record cold temps this winter, and much to my surprise it recently produce the four foot high stalk you see in the second photo. We are still waiting for the bloom, which hopefully will be occurring during our next visit.
