A Caribbean Garden is on a distinguished road
The rock garden rocks!

This content is syndicated via RSS from the blog: Caribbean Garden

One year later and the rock garden has taken off beyond expectations. Indeed there is very little rock left visible!

Above: Agave desmetianna, indigenous pillar cactus and red berry shrub, date palm and kalanchoe
Agave beaulariana, with spineless prickly pear and blooming kalanchoe flapjack

In the center is aloe maculata in bud. Other plants in pic include sea grape, Aloe arborescens, and Sansevieria

Agave taken from wild (possibly karatto) in front of yucca aloifolia




Almost all the plants in the rock garden were free-grown from seeds, cuttings/offsets or taken from the bush



kalanchoe "donkey ears" in bloom

I love this pretty blue agave (with red Russelia equisetiformis) though I don't know its name


Cactus in bloom. This one is spineless and the young pads are edible


another view of the agave



mini rock garden on porch (:
