Notes
Cuttings from plants can be easily transplanted. Great for rock gardens.
Cactus and succulents should never be collected in the wild. Only purchase from sustainable and reputable sources that grow cactus and succulents, for vendors please see our “Where to Buy” page.
This is an important larval and adult food host for many of our native invertebrates.
