Join me and Annie Schreck, on-air host and researcher at Mountain Crest Gardens, for a video series of succulent adventures. Mountain Crest Gardens nursery, which I am proud to be associated with, is the largest supplier of mail-order succulents. Aloe barberae, also known by Aloidendron barbarae and Aloe bainesii in Africa, is dramatic, interesting, and sculptural. Jeff explained that his former home was destroyed by a wildfire in 2008. It also damaged an Aloe barberae. Although nurseries sell boxed and rooted specimens for thousands, Aloe Barbarae is able to start from cuttings.

Your succulent should be kept in a sunny window or an area that receives more than five to six hours of direct sun per day. It is essential to ensure that you choose the right species for your climate if you plan to grow cacti outside. With its amazing facts, it is easy to see why so many people want a desert rose of their own. These would be stunning in a succulent garden. The words cactus and the desert are almost synonymous. These plants aren't cold-hardy. These plants can withstand temperatures up to 20 degrees F (-6.67 degrees C).
