Loved the article and the great pictures. I am crazy for these plants,especially the echevarias and sedums. But I don't have much of a selection where I live in Southern Oregon.
Haven't had too much success finding an internet source that has good selection, can anyone help?
I know I have to bring most of them in for the winter.
Try http://www.cactus-mall.com/nurseryusa.html for listing of reputable nurseries that sell on line. You might check with your local cactus club (try the Cactus and Succulent Society of America's website for information on clubs in your state). Many club members are gifted at seed growing and propagating and often make plants available at their meetings. And they can be terrific because they know what is hardy in your area. Happy Growing!!!
I LOVE======= GoSucculent.com====== they have the best selection, their prices are great, they sell their own soil and it's like gold to the plants. I've been shopping with them for 3-4 years now, get ALL my succulents from them and no complaints. They come rooted in their own little pots, wrapped in layers of newspaper and arrive in perfect condition, every time. Oh, the occasion leaf falls, when I'M planting them, but hey, no problema=new plant for me! I usually knock them off by accident. And their customer service is to die for. Like Don (who runs the nursery) says, their relationship with you begins when your plants arrive. They'll also, replace, refund, etc. After my first order I asked Don what books he would reccomend for me, I wanted an encylopidia on succulents. He was nice enough to list 4-6 books of varying price for me. Who does that kind of stuff??? GoSucculent.com is the only online vender I've found that sends you exactly what they say they will, their very forthcoming on the size and needs of each & every plant, and they must have 500+. I believe the writer of these great articles would be able to identify and name his unknown plants simply by going to this site! I highly reccomend it, you will NOT be disappointed!
