Todays Flower

I’m always unsure about the name of this plant

Some acquaintances said it is 

Saxifraga aka London Pride

then others say it is called

Crassula multicava aka Stonecrop

I’m leaning towards Crassula because of the glossy leaves

but whatever its name – it grows anywhere

and is also one of those

really easy to propagate 

just break a piece off and stick in the ground

type of plants

Heres the patch down near the cat pen

covering the ground fabulously

and green the whole year round

click any of the photos for a closer view

I took these photos the other day

You can see the tiny little flowers buds

on the tips of the long thin stems

In a few weeks they will open out

and from a distance

the whole of this area

will look like its covered with pink fluff

These are from early spring (October) last year
