Green Acres Garden Blog

The world of succulents is full of amazing and beautiful choices for waterwise gardens. Succulents are unique looking, easy to care for, and have few pests and diseases. Succulent varieties can range from taller to shorter, from flowery showstoppers to border accents, with all types of colors and textures. Succulents are ideal for our Mediterranean climate and we are happy to highlight some of our favorites. 

Succulents are popular for good reason—they're available in many different varieties, colors, and textures; they don’t require a lot of care; and they’re versatile enough to fit into a wide range of garden types and projects. 

 

And our nurseries have interesting succulents that do well even when the temperatures turn frosty. Plant them in pots or in the ground for year-around appeal.
