6 Great South African Succulents for your Garden

Succulents. We all love them, right? They’re hardy and can generally withstand even the worst neglect. Succulents are plants that can store water in their stems, leaves or roots, and so enabling the plant to survive in arid conditions. They are thus hardy, water-wise plants, vary in shape and size and are often used in rocky beds and in drier climates. They are extremely versatile and can be used as bed fillers, as landscaping gems, for container landscaping, as paving boundaries, and for contrasting colour and foliage.
