Black Beauty

Spotted in a flower pot on the street outside someone's front door.

I think this is Aeonium arboreuma also known as Black Rose or Black Beauty.

Great colors.

Tilly and Tasha will be featured often until they take to their winter burrows which are close to each other. Tilly could be Tasha's mother.
