Nice!

Echeveria Hybrids
I see we’re growing some very colorful Echeveria Hybrids this time of year.
While it’s true they are very colorful, they’re not really this colorful. There may have been some filtering going on with these photos too.
But so nice…
Cow's Tongue Prickly Pear
Opuntia linguiformis
Just off San Pablo Ave in Berkeley
Cactus and Succulents in Berkeley
4th Street, Berkeley
Aloe nobilis blooms and a Nopalea cochenilifera too!
This is actually in our front bed at the store. Nice!
Succulent Terrariums
I say, how about a terrarium? And a caveman or monkey man from the Ascent of Man series would be a fantastic, and ironic, finishing touch.

Succulents Berkeley
Page Street, Berkeley
Cotyledon orbiculata in full bloom. Now that’s a nicely shaped shrubby and chalky succulent, just like your mother used to make.
And in case you don’t also follow me on instagram, here’s the instagrammed and filtered version that appeared there.
Which do you like better?
Red Hot Poker
Kniphofia on Cedar St., Berkeley
Berkeley Agave
Telegraph Ave., Berkeley
An Agave americana that will get too big for its location soon enough, plus some bonus scented geranium.
An Agave Blooms in Emeryville
Nice big bloom stalk!
Agave flowers up close and personal
Mixed Succulents Basket
Here is our proposal for succulent baskets. Who is the proposal for? It’s a secret. But still, don’t you think we should get it? Of course you do. And we thank you for your support.
An Agave in Berkeley
7th Street, Berkeley
In this clever photo I chose to hide the Agave behind a fence. I could have walked a few feet and taken the picture without the fence in the way, but then you wouldn’t have seen the scaffolding. So those were the choices and this is the result.
An Aeonium in Berkeley
8th Street, Berkeley
Aeonium subplanum

Aloe plicatilis

Aloe nobilis, the Golden Tooth Aloe.
Cactus "Garden" Berkeley
Grayson St, Berkeley
Blooming Black Rose
Pardee St, Berkeley
Aeonium “Schwartzkopf”
This one has enough rosettes that it will pull through the bloom period just fine, but many would not make it alive after the flowering.
Berkeley Succulent Gardens
Howe Street
Aloe reitzii? ferox? and a Cotyledon.
Succulents for Everyone!
Stannage Ave., Berkeley
A nice garden with Agave attenuata and a red-flowering Penstemon. Nice mounds.
Succulent Gardens throughout the Bay Area
Just kidding! The Bay Area stops at the Berkeley border for my Berkeley Succulent posts.
Stannage Ave., Berkeley
Crassula tetragona is the Pine Tree Succulent. And here we have a nice grove of them with a ground cover of oxalis.
Agaves Berkeley
Stannage Ave., Berkeley is well planted with succulents.
Agave attenuata well placed against the house to help it through the occasional freeze.
Blooming Succulents in the Bay Area
Stannage Ave., Berkeley
I see we have a large Cotyledon, or maybe it’s a Kalanchoe, I don’t know, and it’s about to be in full bloom. The Bay Area is home to many blooming succulents, just this one happens to attract aphids, so watch for them.
Berkeley Aeoniums
Stannage Ave., Berkeley
That’s a lot of potted Aeoniums hanging out on Stannage. Big Aeoniums, like maybe A. urbicum sized. And a big rock, too. I like big rocks.
Berkeley Gardens
Kains Ave., Berkeley
I see a large-headed Aeonium “Sunburst” in front of a whole mound of Aeonium heads. Lots of Crassula, some Agave, and a Lemon Tree. Delicious! Too bad its all hiding behind a well-stacked rock wall.
Berkeley Succulent Garden
Kains Ave., Berkeley
That’s a Cotyledon to the left, a Crassula in the front, and numerous dark Aeoniums to boot. Nice garden!
Berkeley Flowers
Stannage Ave., Berkeley
Very brightly orange colored blooms spikes on this streetside Aloe arborescens. Well-tended.
Blooming Succulents, Berkeley
Gilman Street, Berkeley
Hiding behind a fancy fence is a very bloomful Crassula ovata, better known in these parts as a Jade Tree.
