I had to learn about succulents and xeric gardening after moving to a dry island (though most people here are still gardening solely with tropicals, which are either expensive to water or simply die in drought).

Thing is, I may buy a bunch to create that overflowing look but it never looks the same. I guess I just don't squeeze them in there like I probably should. That Aloe marlotti you got is so very cool looking. I look forward to checking up on them later.Dig, Grow, Compost, Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10111150807638669133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-898104752942384432010-02-02T08:44:56.283-08:002010-02-02T08:44:56.283-08:00Those succulents look wonderful.
