The perfect succulent garden? Huge cacti, pristine Pachypodiums and so much more
Today I’m visiting one of the most beautifully maintained private collections I’ve ever seen. Rare miniature cacti, huge pachypodium, blue cycads, and in-ground caudiciforms all sit in perfect order inside an immaculate garden. It’s a chance to see how a collector curates, cares for, and presents some of the rarest succulents and unusual plants grown in Australia. If you enjoy rare succulents, caudex plants, and behind-the-scenes greenhouse visits, this one’s for you. Keywords: rare succulents, rare cacti, caudiciforms, pachypodium, cycads, greenhouse tour, plant collection, succulent collection, backyard greenhouse, unusual plants, Arid Zine.
