The red spines protruding over the rim like fingernails kill me. I have Halloween on the brain, and this scene gives me “skeleton’s hand appears, jump scare, more fingers reach out, skeleton crawls out of grave” vibes.

Dusty has lived in a sunny window since day one. Flowers started around day three. It’s such a sweet plant I mistook for Copiapoa (insert vague species name here). It took a lot of digging (no pun) to identify. As I was doing so - and every time I dive into identification - all I could think was “evolution is nuts” when imagining how the few things separating the species is driven by which crappy environment a bat or the wind etc. drops their seeds. Not a deep thought, just another “wow” over succulents.
