I am retired after 40 years of teaching college environmental science and running my wholesale herb plant business. My greenhouses now has been gradually taken over by cacti and other succulents. I plant a succulent garden every year and am interested in hardy cacti and succulents. Have recently tried my hand at aloe hand pollination and growing agave and other succulents from seed.

Just make sure they are orientated the proper way or they'll disappear
