Succulents in Pots & Succulents in the Garden

Description: No matter the size of your yard or your apartment windowsill, you can find a place to grow succulents! After a brief overview of the natural history of succulents, Master Gardener Delle Maxwell will discuss succulent care and culture, including soils, pots, watering and light. She also will discuss which plants do well in different Bay Area microclimates.

Small succulent gardens in pots will be on display to show how arrangements can be made. Succulent cuttings will be available as “handouts” after the talk.

She also has been a volunteer for 22 years at the San Francisco Botanical Garden (now the Gardens of Golden Gate Park), where she currently works as a Green Team volunteer and serves on the Board of Directors. Her personal interests in gardening include drought-tolerant plants, especially California natives, and cacti and succulents.
