Cena, I never knew you had to move - that will be hard. I love succulents, as you probably remember, particularly Echeverias, but all the Crassula family, and Sansevierias, especially the small Hahnii ones. Succulents are just so interestng ! But I do try to curb myself and only keep a minimum, because I know from experience that I have felt swamped before and have turned against an interest even, to the extent of giving it up altogether.
Reading about them gives a certain satisfaction too.
It's amazing how many Echeverias you can come across at car-boot sales, etc. and there is such fun in identifying them - even though I have hardly succeeded so far, and have only about six names that I'm sure of out of about twelve different Ecehverias. A small amount, I know, but it's growing ! I've also sown seed, it's in the heated propagotor in the kitchen, one tiny one is up, Echeveria peacockii, I believe.
