Interesting to see the P. molok. succulent. Mine looks like that, and I thought it needed to be more leaves, less stem, so good to know I'm on the right track!Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13764969499357648743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-1752538093325294972013-07-22T02:04:20.668-07:002013-07-22T02:04:20.668-07:00I had no idea you were there for so many days.

Your photos are just magical. Too bad you won't see the Hylocereus open, so many buds on it! I keep ogling your scenery photos, each one as beautiful or more beautiful than the next.

Maybe this--coupled with a humidity of 60%--keeps the variegated bananas from burning?Gerhard Bock (Succulents and More)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17583583634141549759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-91116569449626813832013-07-19T11:33:17.408-07:002013-07-19T11:33:17.408-07:00Maui far exceeded my expectations in terms of scen...Maui far exceeded my expectations in terms of scenic diversity!<br /><br />As for La Perouse Bay, it's less than 10 miles from the Wailea resorts, yet very few tourists go there. I've noticed that in other parts of Maui as well and I'm sure it's no different on the other islands: Get off the beaten path, and chance are you'll have left 90% of the tourists behind. <br /><br />Sugarcane: I loved this particular variety. Very showy!Gerhard Bock (Succulents and More)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17583583634141549759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-91026309841123243662013-07-19T11:28:35.667-07:002013-07-19T11:28:35.667-07:00How awesome, Laura!

I love ...I really like the look of that sugarcane!<br /><br />I love finding secluded spots like that, and this one seems like it was certainly worth the trip!
