I don't know yet Al they are still growing and more flowers are coming out along the  length of them. I've never seen anything like them.

Marilyn, the flowers are beautiful.  I don't remember seeing any just like them.  I haven't been here much lately.  I  think I am getting lazy in my old age.    :-[

They do look like they're very pretty!  Is there a scent to them?

Yes Sue there is a scent to them a very subtle sweet scent.

I found it!  ;) :)

Those blooms are really pretty---looks like stickers on them, but guess not, if it's a succulent.  Really a nice photo, Marilyn.  Ya done good!  ;)

Definitely Hens & Chickens!  I have some out in my garden and when the plant blooms, that's when the little chicks sprout off and become a new plant (hen).

They grow very nicely in the crevice of a rock on your garden.  They hardly need any soil.

This is a lovely set of photos, Marilyn!
