Yes, now that I understand... lol

I've been doing some reading and am not sure how well they will endure the hot dry summer temps we enjoy. I'm thinking it will take me lots of research to get hooked on trying them.

The link I posted above tells me that the aloes I planted may not endure extended freezing temps which we do occasionally receive.

That link and this one both have encouraged me to try adding more succulents to my bed this next summer.

Incidentally, it also includes the Sempervivums and Sedums.

A succulent bed will probably never be lush but it will be quite carefree.

Does anyone here have an idea how to make Hesperaloe parvaflora deliver blooms?Thumb of 2012-12-17/pod/c1bc4e
