Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Amazingly variable and useful evergreen succulents from mostly limestone ranges of Europe, both species and selections abound many originating from here in the Pacific Northwest. From small cobweb clusters to large glossy rosettes in a range of colors, flowering in early to mid summer. Great in containers, troughs and along path edges. Dappled shade to sun in any decently drained soil. Periodic summer water where dry. All hardy in USDA zone 5, and many even hardier.
