    I guess bromeliads don't really qualify as succulents, but here are some pictures anyway. Anyone else with pictures to share?

    The purple Dyckias are looking pretty good this time of year. First two shots show a purple plant growing in day-long sun. I've had it for two years. It came to me with one head, then last winter sprouted two more, and now the total is up to four. Meanwhile it has put out 6 offsets at waist level.

    Third picture shows two recently repotted Dyckias growing in less sun. I really didn't plant the color combination, it just happened that way. Those were the only two pots of the right size in inventory. They will in theory both go properly purple once I get them out there and dial up the sun. Overhead views show the subtle differences between the two rosettes.
