It was great to hear that you love them so much you have 2,500 cultivars and species and I send you good wishes for completing your collection.<BR/><BR/>Lorena,<BR/>Thanks for your comment. I so love your web site, I was delighted to find you posting pictures of your stonecrops to mine. Alas, I can't get the link to work. When I go to the cactus pictures on your website, I see only the tag for your website. Am I doing something wrong?<BR/><BR/>WaverlyWaverly Fitzgeraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11859246817009371938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29088417.post-26116415994525889222007-08-22T17:34:00.000-07:002007-08-22T17:34:00.000-07:00One common name for these succulents is "stonecrop...One common name for these succulents is "stonecrop" because they seem to grow on rocks (actually they are growing in the cracks, or in thin soil layers and cryptobiotic crust on the rocks). We have the beautiful wild Graptopetalum in SE Arizona:<BR/>http://www.mineralarts.com/cactus/graptopetalum.html<BR/>These are giants among stonecrops, second only to coastal California's spectacular Dudleyas.<BR/><BR/>Lorena<BR/>http://ironwing.wordpress.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29088417.post-19945899492272693152007-08-19T22:01:00.000-07:002007-08-19T22:01:00.000-07:00Hello from Ljubljana, Slovenia,Lovely photo!
