Hello,

I have been poking reading here for about a week now and can already tell I am in trouble. I have been making some hypertufa pots and was thinking I would plant them with succulents I really like echeveria and in my reading have become really interested in Sempervivum. I have purchased a few plants from local nurseries and have been looking at some online sellers here and already have a list of plants to order. The one thing I am a bit worried about is I might not have enough sun. I get full sun in different areas of my yard but only for a few hours here and a few hours there. I am not sure if the plants will be happy in these conditions they might grow but never really have nice color or grow kind of weak and elongated. It is bright in the yard. So I guess my first question is are there some varieties that do better with less full sun or should I really be rethinking growing these plants?

Any thoughts or suggestions would be really appreciated,

Thank you,

John

P.S. I live in zone 9a Sonoma County California
