Choice Succulents is the Australian shop for succulents, cacti and drought hardy plants for house and garden. Choose
from a large range of plants and have them delivered to your door.
Predictions of a drier future as result of the greenhouse effect, does not mean the end of gardening but more a
reassessment of plants which can adjust to changing circumstances.
Succulent plants are a good choice and will cope successfully with less moisture and temperature stress than
many other garden plants.
Succulent is not a botanical term but is used for a large range of plants across many plant families
(including Cacti) which use water efficiently by storing it in the plant.
In contrast Australian native plants, cope with dry conditions by growing deeper roots.
Succulent plants are also a desirable choice for busy people who love plants but cannot find the time to
look after them.
They are low in maintenance and thrive on neglect.
Most ornamental succulent species used come from:
Americas (cacti, agaves, echeverias)
Africa (Aloes, Gasteria, Pachypodium, Haworthia)
and a few from Europe (sempervivum) or Asia (orostachys)
Plants can be viewed and purchased from the Orders page.
