Dry Garden May 2017.
I made my once a year pilgrimage. I've deduced after all the years,May is the best time for the largest variety. I myself got a nice Aloe speciosa in a one gallon- not easy to find them for sale and even harder in smaller affordable sizes. I also got a small- 3"- Boojum. Wanted one for years. Nice to just say Boojum its such an exotic cactus..yes what looks so tree like,is a cactus. the photos-
Cussonia paniculata.
Dioon edule. A Great cycad for small pots forever if need be.
Crested Pachypodium lamerei
Tillandsia's red and orange "enhanced"
Lots of small and cool little perennials,both hardy and subtropicals.
Euphorbia lambii
Aoenium sp.
Resident Panther.
Aloe deltoides
Yucca rostratas galore and various Cereus sp.
Hardy Broms NFS.
Aoeniums and Crassula capitata mostly.
Cussonia spicata.
Parrot Impatiens in the shade garden plants section.
Crested Myrtleocactus.
Agave gypsophyla variegated.
Agave ovatas (?)
Agave tintora.
Aloe speciosa
And finish up with Tllandsia cyanea. Thanks!

Re: Dry Garden May 2017.
Nice collection of plants Stan. A collection you won't easily find over here. Reminds me to check my local nurseries soon. Last year I found some nice tropicals almost on my doorstep which were on my list for years.

Re: Dry Garden May 2017.
Nice pics Stan... I could spend hours there. Is the nursery close to you? The Agave ovatifolia is I believe parryi v truncata and tintora I have never heard of but the plant looks like Agave parrasana "meat claw" perhaps
