I've been learning about using succulents as garden plants to cope with summer drought. (Given review copy, not paid.)

'The Dry Exotic Garden' by Paul Spracklin is a comprehensive look at a style of gardening he's been testing for decades. Advice from what he's learned ranges from design and propagation to plant choice and cultivation.

Tiny surprise restock! A few of the plants that ran out of stock over the month have grown enough for me add more to the shop at the last minute - including Callisia repens 'Kribo'.

There's only one day left to order! The shop will close first thing in the morning (UK time) on 1st April. There's always a flurry of orders near the end so it might take a couple of weeks for all the orders to get shipped out after that.

I hit another bucket-list plant store today: Ozaki Flower Park in Nerima

They had a nice outdoor section with an OK assortment of succulents, but I underwhelmed until I went inside to the second floor. They have a huge variety of all sorts of stuff.

I picked up

Euphorbia obesa

Haworthia “Maken” (魔剣)—“Magic Sword”. I love these goofy-ass names.
