Hens and chicks have male and female plants. I wonder if my male plant got a little excited because he is sitting near a pair of Fan Dance rs. By the way the male dies after he blooms.

I have one that does that every year. I didn't know it was a M/F thing.. I thought I just had an odd plant.

I will post photos if it ever stops raining here.... Cindy go away! LOL!
