The Obregonia is a goner. The most likely reason is it got watered when it was 118º when I was away. My husband is a wonderful help but I can not expect him to know plants! I told him to water when I was gone and he did. Of course, I was not taking into account the extreme temps we are having. Finally we are getting a stretch below 110º during the day. But still the heat is unbelievable!

I can not find the post where you gave me the names of 2 good fatter Euphorbias. Can you please tell me again?

I always love any info on growing you have. I may know or I may not! Even if I think I know, I like reinforcement! I did not realize Pachys like water in the summer. I have only one left, a P. saundersii. It did not look happy outside. The leaves were all curled up and as soon as I brought it in the house, they reopened.

My problem is there is not a good place inside with enough sun for plants. Ugh!

I hope you are right on the Aloe marlothii. It is so hard here to give enough sun but not burn plants. I have an Aloe 'Hercules' in the ground that I planted at about 3' maybe 4 years ago. I has not bloomed yet either. Yes, I think I just need to be more patient!
