Meaning
Cactaceae are a family of succulent plants.
and succulent just describes some of the morphological features of a plant.
here is a picture of a plant i love to death, tomato plants. its not looking overly healthy atm due to not watering for a couple of days, but its pickin up. theres about 4 of 5 babies in there and nearly ready to be taken out the pot, so to speak.
I had previously said I would post a picture of this Pachypodium...
I went up to my mums this afternoon and did a mission around the garden. I spent 3 years landscaping, planting trees I had grown and heaps of plants that I bought or scored from the garden centre. Things were looking awesome really.
I am going to go up there and spend a few days doing some pruning and potting up. I found a book in the Library about desiging with Australian Rainforest species that I'm reading atm, its giving some good inspiration...
i got one thats kinda dead on the rain water tank. the bottom half is brown but its top half is all green. it's taken about 10 years to get to about a foot tall.
