Located on the beautiful coastline, I began gardening in 2005 – I prefer growing succulents and cacti above all other plants because of their ease and appearance but I aspire to have something more, in due time – let’s say, once I buy a house.
Apart from succulents, I enjoy growing just about anything else there is to grow – I really don’t have a preference. I just like plants that like me back. I enjoy functionality and aesthetics so I am open to anything that makes it’s way into my garden.
