Avonia albissima is now Anacampseros albissima, and is commonly known as the White Anacampseros, it is a small succulent plant species that belongs to the family Anacampserotaceae. It is native to South Africa and is appreciated for its attractive appearance, caudex, and compact growth habit.
Avonia albissima forms low-growing rosettes of tightly clustered leaves. The rosettes are made up of thick, fleshy leaves that are typically green with a powdery white or silvery coating, giving the plant its distinctive appearance. The powdery coating helps to protect the plant from excessive sunlight and reflects light, reducing water loss.
The leaves of Avonia albissima are typically oval-shaped or elongated and can have slightly pointed tips. The edges of the leaves may exhibit a reddish or pinkish hue, especially under bright light conditions. The plant remains relatively small, with rosettes reaching a diameter of about 3 to 4 inches (7 to 10 centimeters). It also grows a very impressive caudex!
Avonia albissima is a perennial plant that produces delicate, star-shaped flowers that can vary in color. The flowers emerge on slender stalks above the rosettes and can be pink, purple, or white, adding a touch of beauty when in bloom. The flowering period usually occurs during the warmer months.
In terms of care, Avonia albissima is a relatively easy-to-care-for succulent. It prefers well-draining soil and requires infrequent watering. Like other succulents, it is susceptible to root rot if overwatered, so it is important to let the soil dry out between waterings. This plant thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate some shade.
Avonia albissima can be grown both indoors and outdoors, depending on the climate. In colder regions, it is often cultivated as a houseplant or in containers that can be brought indoors during winter. It can also be planted in rock gardens, succulent arrangements, or as ground cover in suitable outdoor conditions.
Overall, Anacampseros albissima is a charming and visually appealing succulent with its silvery leaves and delicate flowers. It is a great addition to succulent collections or as a decorative accent in various settings.

Fun educational book
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
This book is a big hit! My 5 year old son and I read it so many times since we ordered this in April. It has cute illustration and 60 flaps and pop-ups which make the book even more exciting. And because of this, I don’t recommend this book to young kids under 3 though. Some flaps might be tricky for younger kids. Even I as a parent learned so much about construction.

Great book, but the other book of the same author is much better
Format: Hardcover
This is a very high quality book, chock a block full of information about construction sites, with lots of imaginative flaps, things that swivel, move, and fold. HOWEVER...it is not as good as "The Ultimate Book of Vehicles" by the same author. The "Vehicles" book is more appropriate for kids 3 years and up: It is still full of awesome flaps, swivels, and things that move, but it is simpler, with pictures of the vehicle, the name of the vehicle, and maybe a few names of the parts of the vehicle. You open up a flap to see inside, make it move, etc. My son found it very interesting.
The "Construction" is really aimed for older kids, I'm guessing 5 and up, maybe even older. There are just so many words on the page, and so much information. The flaps are not as interesting as the previous book, and I found many of the moving parts to be "sticky", and my 3 year old ripped quite a few out within a week of reading the book. We have not ripped anything from the "Vehicle" book.
So I would say if you have an older kid who wants to gain a lot of knowledge about construction sites, this book is for you. But if you have a younger child (3 and up, any younger and they'd destroy the book), get the "Vehicle" book.

So Much Fun And Very Informative
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
This book has been a winner in our house since it arrived. Each page has so many flaps, spins, pulls and movement. So many new words and easy explanations for the kids. The pictures are beautifully designed and each time we look through it we find more details we missed!
The book is an excellent purchase and definitely worth every penny!

Best Construction Kids book
Format: Hardcover
My nephew can look at this book for hours. It is such a cool book even for adults. It is a more delicate child’s book as their are lots of demonstrations and paper pieces that move. The house across the street is being torn down and rebuilt and he will sit and point to the book and say this is what they are doing today. I think this book is one of my nephews most prized possessions. It’s a great book that can grown with them for a few years. He is only 3 but this could easily engage a 5 or 6 year old. There is lots of details and the book is really well designed.
