Perhaps because of our wet Winter, one of my balcony succulent plants has suddenly sprung a large growth up and to the right. I hope you can see it in the attached photo. I think there may be flowers starting to bloom at the end of the growth. Is this some kind of "sex" happening before my eyes? I am good at keeping succulents alive, but I don't know much about them. Will baby succulents be appearing soon? As for less mysterious plants, I have two sunflowers growing now, but my corn and other Spring plants have not poked through yet. How does your garden grow?

The plant known as Hen and Chicks will do that...

I have heard of hen and chicks. I have no clue what this succulent is called.

I don’t have much of a green thumb. That’s a pretty plant.

it seems like a Very Happy Succulent right now. Perhaps too happy for common decency.

Currently it's mainly full of wild flowers.

Love your plants. Our gardens will grow soon as we are having a landscaper come in and replace our weeds with flowering plants and mulch. Looking forward to not being the embarrassment on the block!

@LindaOHio Your flowering plants and mulch will silence them.

When my hen and chicks plants do that they die soon after. It does produce seeds to continue the plant. I don't know if that will happen with yours

That's interesting! report on it if they release their seeds and then die.

I think you'll find it's a flower spike. Hopefully, your discussion won't get deleted.

I’m not sure but your plant might need trimming. I only have ivy and a few wild plants I hope will take root.I used to have potted flowers an veggie plants until trees grew large and now shades the deck actually I suppose my deck is a balcony. It’s on the second floor.

You can call it whatever want--you live there! Maybe I will cut some of my succulent back and give the sprigs to friends. Sharing is caring.

Only the grass grows very densely here, yesterday I just mowed it down to 1mm.
