Did you know? All cacti are succulents, but not all succulents are cacti?
This class will focus on the non-spiny succulent plants that can be grown in our area, especially those that use less water - and there are a lot to choose from! During this workshop with the UCCE Master Gardeners of Stanislaus County, you'll learn the names of common succulent plants, their sun and water requirements, and how to care for them.
We will also share tips and tricks for making more succulents to share with friends. Last, you'll create your own succulent wooden planter box to take home, along with succulent cuttings to use in your landscape. You will want to bring a bag to take them all home!
