Succulents for Shade
| | |
Posted by Deryn 9West Aust (My Page) on Wed, Jun 9, 04 at 23:03
Hi all, I have had good success growing succulents in the full sun but have two urns positioned at the side of the house that get shade for most of the day.
I have no experience with shade-loving succulents.
I would like to plant them up with succulents as then I will not have to worry about reticulation.
They will get an ocasional watering in summer.
Can you suggest any varieties that will thrive in these conditions.
Regards Deryn |

| Some of the weedier Crassula spp. are very shade tolerant, particularly C. maulticava and C. sarmentosa. Also most Gasteria spp., some Aloe spp. such as A. maculata (saponaria), A. ciliaris, A. variegata, many Haworthia spp; and of course most Sansevieria spp. |

Tony, thankyou.
I'm off to a specialist grower to see what takes my fancy.
