Hen and Chicks

hen-chicks.jpgThis is one of the “Hen and Chicks” variety of echeveria, a succulent native to the southwest. Hen and Chicks is a stemless rosette that produces bright orange and yellow flowers spring through summer. Depending on the climate, they can also bloom again in the fall.

I took this shot using my old Canon A510 camera. These are currently growing in a hanging basket next to the patio fence. Click for a larger view.
