Large and Maybe Crazy Outdoor Display Garden in AZ

Post by SteenAZ »

Inspired by this site we set about on a challenge to see how many genera of Cacti we could grow outdoors in Tempe/Phoenix AZ. We are doing it without permanent man-made shade structures, everything is or will be open sky most of the time, a few plants get shade cloth to acclimate. We made a Facebook page of the collection. I will put a link below that directs to it. On the "about" page you can find a link to a Google Docs Spreadsheet of the current plant list. We are at 59 Genera of Cacti along with assorted other succulents and a few Sonoran Desert favorites.
