Re: Book Review and Giveaway: Succulent Container Gardens

I am starting a succulent garden in an area of clay soil left over from swimming pool excavation. Not possible? It is. I put down landscape cloth, covered it with decorative rock ("rock garden" to my kids) and plan to set out potted succulents. Only have two so far. This book might give me ideas on how to make this otherwise difficult part of my poolscape cool--even in the heat. Hope I win it! --Erik
