I have killed cacti, but yeah, they are pretty goof-proof. And they don't get enough respect even though they are beautiful and come in such a variety of colors and shapes.
Steve, what did you to to kill succulents? How????? My hens and chicks are spreading like...chicks ! This is a very cute arrangement, I try to think of cute ways to show mine, but they dont seem to be an eyecatcher like this.
Oh Steve, be still my heart...you killed a succulent ...by neglect? How much attention does a succulent need? You poor guy, people must walk across the street when they see you coming!
Hey now. Be nice. I was 17, and I was never in my dorm room. I pretty much just slept there, and totally forgot about this little tiny cactus that someone gave me. I am not proud of it, but it's true.
Ok Steve....you are forgiven. Because at 17.....we all need forgiveness. However, watch out for the big cacti..little cacti relatives. They can fight back! A couple of pictures on HT of them!
I hate to say, because I'll get blasted worse than Steve, but I can kill Cacti and succulents also. And I worked in a nursery! I did learn how NOT to kill them, but decided I should keep my distance from them - I'm much better at things like Ivy and Philodendrons! Maybe they got word from the early ones I killed at work - hee hee!
Succulents are my new favorite things because they are the one thing I seem not to kill. Hey-the kids get fed and "watered" each day, I should get credit for that right?
Just put hens & chicks in my "dead" zen solar fountain and small bed at the end of my driveway. I need to put black mulch as the soil looks so dried out.
Can they thrive indoors? Anyone know?
