Plant Dreaming: Praying Hands Succulent - New in 2021
On Friday, I posted a description and a photo of a columnar tree that was being introduced as "new" by the Growing Place Nursery near us. It was a columnar cultivar of a Baldcypress called Lindsey's Skyward . In that post, I mentioned that the tree was on a list of 'new for this season' plants. There were a few other things that caught my eye on that list including a succulent. It is striking because of the form - and the name: Praying Hands. Here's how they bill it on the Growing Place's site: Quite interesting isn't it? I can see this being a really lovely container succulent. Love that they call out how it looks like an artichoke, right? Walter's Garden has more details including how it is relatively fast growing and is a cross of Agave . This past Fall, I added a hosta with the same name - Praying Hands - to our yard . And, yes... I made mistake in buying ONLY one of them . Thanks for reminding me.
