What to Plant in this Big Container

0nametaken0
10 years ago

Hey guys, unfortunately, Im selling all my succulents in this plastic container. I spent alot of time on preparing everything for them and acquiring them. I hammered lava rock until it was pea sized because I also used pea gravel. I wanted all the bits to be the same size. I used 2 and a half bags of succulent soil.

The reason Im selling all my succulents is because they are not cold hardy. I dont have enough space in the apartment to bring them inside.

So pretty soon my big container will be empty and depressing :(

I wanted to ask what can I buy that I can plant in the container? Something that looks good.

My requirments:

+ Im zone 6/5
+ The container will be outside year round. So temps will change from 40c to -26c
+ Since its a balcony, excess water is np. Just tell me the frequency to water them.

atm I have:
lots of semps
Sago palm
Agave parryi truncata
Agave parviflora
Aloe vera var chinensis

During winter Ill be bringing in the aloe and sago. The rest will stay outside. Also, do you guys know where I can buy a bundle of zone 5/6 cacti?
