Attention Gardeners, are you looking for a plant that will make your garden stand out? Look no further than the Fenestraria rhopalophylla, also known as baby toes or baby's toe, and window plant! These little clump-forming baby toes succulents, hailing from Namibia and South Africa truly live up to their nickname. 

With their tiny, rounded leaves resembling the toes of an infant, it's hard not to fall in love with them at first sight! But wait until you get a closer look - these window-leafed succulents have transparent tips (like a window) reaching the height of 3 inches and 4 inches in diameter in their natural habitat, it almost seems like something out of a fairy tale. These tiny toes' translucent tips allow light to pass through them and reach the baby toe's underground stem, which helps them to survive in its arid desert environment. 

Let's not forget about those delicate white or yellow flowers they produce in the early spring and fall! It's no wonder why these baby succulents are often referred to as living stones - they look like tiny rock formations with rounded baby toes sticking out. Propagating baby toes succulent plants from seeds and offsets is the easiest way to enhance your succulent collection. 

These green toes are unlike anything you've seen before with their low maintenance. Imagine having this unique and eye-catching plant in your collection. Your garden will be the envy of all who see it! 

Watering Requirements 

Fenestraria can typically don’t need much water, so they are harder to kill than most houseplants; it can store water in its leaves. They still require infrequent but effective watering to maintain their cuteness and recharge their water storage.  To determine when it's time to water, check the soil in-between waterings and wait until the first inch of soil is dry to the touch before watering again.  

You should decrease the watering frequency to once a month or less in autumn.  It's recommended to give them a deep-water soak once or twice a month when the soil is dry, during the active growing period in spring and winter, and sparingly during their dormant period in summer. 

It's important to avoid over-watering baby toes or other succulents though, as it can lead to waterlogging or soggy conditions that can easily damage the plant. A baby toe succulent that has been overwatered can easily be identified by a crack or split on its leaves. Placing it somewhere dry, well-lit, and with controllable water intake can help solve this issue. 

Light Requirements 

The baby toes succulents should be planted in full sun outdoors and need a minimum of 5-6 hours of bright light daily to stay compact (usually refer to leaves that are smaller than usual, and that are closely spaced on the stem).  

If they are not receiving enough sunlight, they may produce leaves that are elongated, thin, and pale in color, rather than compact and succulent. Without enough light, the plant may become leggy and weak, and its leaves may lose their distinctive shape and texture.  

When grown indoors, place it in the sunniest place in your house. This baby succulent may benefit from shade in consistently hot climates. Growing this baby succulent in a west- or south-facing window is best. Most light will enter through a south-facing window. East and West windows are excellent, too! Northern-facing windows provide the least amount of light, so avoid them.  

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

When it comes to choosing the right soil or succulent food for your adorable baby toes plant, you need to be careful! It's like picking out the perfect outfit for a date - you want to make sure everything is just right so there are no surprises later on. 

You see, the amount of moisture in the soil can literally make or break your little green-toe friend. Too much water and BAM! You've got root and stem rot faster than you can say "Cactus." That's why we at Planet Desert have got your back with our specialized succulent potting mixGo to soil cactus mix blend 1 gal 4 qt cacti succulent dirt compost growing media, or regular potting succulent soil. This organic substrate has mycorrhizae which help to grow a healthy root system that makes all those spiky stems stand up tall and proud.  As an okay alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil. 

Natural fertilizers with a balanced ratio of NPK (5-10-5) also last longer and keep your soil alive by adding other beneficial compounds and microbes that encourage plant health and nutrient absorption. So, skip those harsh chemicals and give your succulent some love with some awesome organic fertilizer! 

Hardiness Zones & More 

Typically grown in hot, arid desert regions, the baby toes succulent thrives indoors in warm, dry surroundings. In general, a humidity level of 40% is sufficient to keep this plant happy and thriving.  

If you live in USDA regions 10 to 12, you can also grow these baby succulents outdoors year-round, but they are not cold- or frost-tolerant, so during cold winters, you should plant them indoors or put them in a pot and move them indoors during the winter if you live outside of these regions. Keep your baby toes away from cold, drafty windows and air vents if you are growing them indoors in a cold climate. 

Don't miss out on adding the Fenestraria rhopalophylla baby toes to your garden today! Order now and enjoy its beauty for years to come.

Top Notch!
Format: Hardcover
A lot of the time when your reading SW books your imagination doesn't quite fill in the gaps that the author leaves. A lot of SW books have little to no detail because they are movie or game based. This is where the top notch illiustrations took this story line to a whole new level! Richardson does a great job on developping the main character. I was very impressed with the quality of the story and blown away with the illustrations. Great read for all!

Great saga!
Format: Kindle
I love this series! It is beautifully painted, has good dialogue, and has a very compelling narrative. I cannot help but like the protagonist, Kir Kanos. He is brave, unselfish, noble, determined, and deadly. Even if his primary goal is to exact vengeance for the killing of the truly evil Palpatine, I cannot help but cheer for him. This is truly a compelling read that refuses to be put down.

Just an OK read
Format: Kindle
I was not aware when I purchased this that it was a Graphic Novel, I really wish that in the blurb about these products it was made very clear that you are buying a Graphic Novel. I like reading, not viewing the written word. Since I got this via Kindle there was no shipping issues. Maybe the Graphic Novels should have their own category, so that we don't end up with things we don't want.

"Thus die all traitors."
Format: Hardcover
At a grand 504 pages, this big book covers the Crimson Empire series in its entirety. Containing the first, second, and third mini-series as well as Bounty Hunters: Kenix Kil, Dark Horse Extra #21-24 "Hard Currency", and Dark Horse Presents #1 "Third Time Pays for All". While some of these stories truly pale in comparison to the original series, they all still form a big story that is collected in this book. Slightly smaller than a regular TPB, this hardcover edition looks nice with a dustjacket (although mine was very off-center) but utilizes a glued binding on this thick book so you lose a bit to gutter loss. The first story in the book is the classic Crimson Empire series. The six-issue series is collected here in full with a truly timeless story by Randy Stradley and Mike Richardson. Paul Gulacy did the awesome art within the issues. The writing and art work well together with the vibration of the blades to the movie-like, choreographed 12-page fight scene between Kanos and Jax at the end. A truly epic tale with lots of action and mystery that made you feel like you were watching another Star Wars movie but condensed into six issues of a comic book! This alone is worth the purchase price but you get even more stories after this! Bounty Hunters: Kenix Kil follows the Crimson Empire in a tale following Kir Kanos after the end of the Crimson Empire series and was the third issue in the Bounty Hunters series. Kir becomes the bounty hunter Kenix Kil to move through a bounty hunter-filled planet and get what he needs and get out alive! Javier Saltares did the penciling while Randy Stradley reprised his role for the story. The story's short but tells a bit more about Kir and his journey. The drawings, while not as good as the first series, look good enough to get the story across. Crimson Empire II: Council of Blood is next directly following the first series as Kir Kanos, as Kenix Kil, continues his quest to destroy what's left of the traitorous Imperial leaders. However, the return of an old friend side-tracks his quest and brings him to an even bigger journey! The old writing team of Mike Richardson and Randy Stradley return in this story as well as the original artist Paul Gulacy. The art's great and the story, though a bit dense, works well. There isn't quite as much action this time around but the story's just as good. The Zanzibar creatures are one of the creepiest things you'll ever see in a Star Wars comic, too! Next up is the very short four-part comic entitled Hard Currency that appeared in Dark Horse Extra #21-24. The comic is written by Randy Stradley so you know the writing's done well but the art is by Isaas Buckminister Owens and is one God-awful mess. The characters are horribly out of proportion and it looks extremely cartoony. It's very, very short with only a few pages but even if you get past the art, the comic reads like a calendar with the book turned on its side. So, the whole process of reading this out of a 500+ page book is just annoying. I know they probably couldn't print it any other way but it's still inconvenient. However, what you get is a neat story wrapping up the fate of a character that has ran through the first two series and a bit more about Kir's alter ego Kenix Kil. Unlisted, the book appears to start with the third main series but actually contains an 8-page prequel comic that originally appeared in Dark Horse Presents #1 entitled The Third Time Pays for All. The writing has Randy Stradley again and, thankfully, Paul Gulacy on art duty (although his other works here were better). Once again, a short glimpse into the life of (a newly outfitted) Kenix Kil on a bounty-hunting mission while he reminisces about his past run-ins with Mirith Sinn. Mike, Randy and Paul continue their work with the Crimson Empire III: Empire Lost where Kir Kanos rejoins Mirith Sinn one last time to thwart an Imperial thug from destroying the New Republic and the New Empire in one fell swoop! Leia, Luke, Han, and Chewie appear in this tale as well as Boba Fett to round out a classic cast. The art's great, once again, and the writing, while probably my least favorite of the series, is still pretty good with an epic fight between Kir and Devian. At the end of the book, we get the Crimson Empire Handbook entries on some of the characters as well as a few more covers to gawk at. While this hardcover book looks really nice, Dark Horse still fails to make a truly great edition for this series through the book itself. The contents are great but the small size and lack of comic covers are disappointing. Sadly, that's just how Dark Horse releases their hardcovers and TPBs. But, if you're looking to read the Crimson Empire books, this is the one to get!

Who doesn't love the Dark Father
Format: Kindle
Nice art work and an interesting story. We get to see what Vader was up too just after the Death Star was destroyed. We also see how the Emperor liked to play people off against each other especially against Vader.
