My new gardening interest. I took a trip to Cottage Gardens in Petaluma the other day and was instantly converted. The selection of succulents they sell is amazing! All the plants are so interesting...and so expensive. I went to my local Friedman's hardware store and picked out some of the cheaper, although less interesting, succulents they carried.
My new collection works great on an odd outdoor shelf by the back door that some previous owner built years and years ago.
I still haven't figured out what it is about these drought resistant plants that attracts me. I remember as a child thinking they were the most hideous plants on earth ( I also hated broccoli, wool, and the color brown as well as any similar shade)but now they are my new favorite!
