Hens-a-poppin'!

My hens and chicks have run amok. Normally, they look like this.






















But suddenly, they're doing this.












What's up with that? And they're clearly not done yet; check the one on the right.


I think they're desperately trying to spread their DNA before the thyme smothers them. Note to self: may be time to trim the thyme?

Sue, any idea if thyme is one of those plants that poisons anything that tries to grow near it?

I don't think thyme does anything nasty to other plants.But it does love dry ,hard conditions best.I do love thyme.I think Hen and chicks does that 7 year thing that some succulents do.Thats not scientific I just think that some cacti and succulents go nuts every 7 years or so and do everything they can to reproduce .I could be deranged.
