Scarlett007 writes: These are indeed the colors of said succulents, depending, of course, on how much sun they receive. One must balance sun/water most carefully with all aucculents, some need only a bit to turn vivid colors, other's much more. However much more, almost never means South or West, at least NOT in Tucson, AZ. Those would be first choice for lots more northern climes, however. A caveat about Euphorbia's. One MUST wear gloves always when toching them, they split easiy and the inner sap is poisinuss, to us and our pets, as well as a nightmare if one gets in eyes. Having said that, they're certainly a large genus to choose from, one I've discovered is very hardy and grows well in darn near any dry as a bone joint round here. They grow fast; make pups/babies, and spread out like wildfire (no pun intended). I myself prefer the Sedum, Echeveria, Crassula (the Jade Plant family) which is gigantic, and has so many styles and types of plants, tis remarkable. My very favorite succulent has to be the Aeonium. To see ALL of these, why not check the web site usings w's GoSucculent.com, pls not, tis NOT plural!!I get all mine there, perfect conditions, their own soil mix is to die for, wouldn't use anything else. Yes, on that heavy product, S&H is a trifle high, but once you have it, you don't care about that! In short, I only have to pick out pots, use their soil, plants, and the VERY BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE ANYWHERE, they make me look like a genius! But, tis they who are that! It was my lucky day finding them, and this I promise you. You will never find anyone who's used them, without glowing reports to follow! Nobody' got a word to say again them, it doesn't exist. You check out, You decide! ENJOY, from Tucson, AZ Posted: 6:50 am on November 23rd
