The image depicts a vibrant garden scene under a clear blue sky. In the foreground, a dense carpet of bright yellow flowers with numerous petals covers the ground, creating a striking visual impact. The flowers are likely a type of daisy or similar species, with a rich, sunny hue that stands out against the green foliage.

In the background, a variety of plants add depth and texture to the scene. Prominent among these are several cacti, including tall, columnar species and shorter, rounder forms, showcasing the diversity of desert flora. A large, spiky yucca plant with long, pointed leaves is also visible, adding to the garden's arid aesthetic. The mix of greenery includes other shrubs and trees, contributing to the lush, natural setting.

The image features a dense cluster of bright yellow flowers, likely a type of iceplant or similar species, with numerous petals radiating outward from a central point. The flowers are in full bloom, displaying a vibrant yellow color that stands out against the darker background. The petals are long and slender, with a slight curve, and the centers of the flowers are visible, though not in detail.

My iceplant / Mesembryanthemum Crystallinum has been in its own Kratky pot full of saline for 24 hours now. It's thriving!

I am a very happy mad scientist / indoor gardener / space station denizen today. ☺️

I did it! I moved my #IcePlant to a #Kratky pot (1l juice jar, covered in a black sock) with a 0.1 M NaCl solution. I am now growing, or attempting to grow, a plant in salt water.

I even managed to find yet another sock with a hole in the toe that I saved in the confidence I would find a use for it.

This is pinnacle mad scientist. My (space station) life has peaked.

I am so excited to see how my little plant fares! 3/n

More information on the benefits of NaCl for iceplants, aka Mesembryanthemum Crystallinum . (This fascinates me!)

It truly feels like an experiment worthy of my Space Station Life.™😂 2/n

My Common iceplant (#MesembryanthemumCrystallinum) has had a growth burst this week!

I *may* eventually transfer it from its current #hydroponic slot to a #Kratky set-up so I can experiment with adding saline!

Has anyone here done that (Kratky ice plant, hydroponic ice plant, and/or adding salt)?

I'd love advice about harvesting select leaves early if anyone has experience with this specific plant. 1/n
