Succulents

Hi all, it is nice to see this forum active again.

I want to add some succulents to my garden this year. Any suggestions on good nurseries in the Twin Cities area for me to look?

Hi Pauline. I don't have any nursery recommendations, but I was just curious about what kind of succulants you are planning to add. Prickly Pear or other cacti, yucca, sedum, hen and chicks? Or other neat ones that I don't know will grow in Minnesota?

I have prickly pear, seeds for a mix of hen and chicks and yucca. I also have several sedum and am looking for more. I am just fishing for what other succlents will grow in Minnesota. There is a nursery Tangle Town nursery that has a wide variety of sedum and I am always looking for more.

Tangletown, to me, is like a mini Highland Nursery(7th street and 35E, sw corner). In fact, Tang did spawn from Highland. Highland has lots of good succulents. Rosularia too. And everything else!
