SUCCULENT

 No, not the tender juicy and tasty pear I ate after lunch. I'm referring to the succulent plants that I put on a couple of Free Stuff sites yesterday.



To date there have been no takers from the two sites that I posted this on - Free Stuff Thorndon, Kelburn and CBD and Free recycling Wellington, Lower Hutt and Upper Hutt.

Obviously Wellingtonians are too well heeled to bother or are not into gardening. If I'd posted this offer in Whangarei Heads there would have been at least half a dozen people clamouring for these. They are nice and in good condition.

Succulents are diverse, drought-tolerant plants with thick, fleshy tissues designed to store water, thriving in arid climates and often used in low-maintenance, decorative gardening. Popular for their varied shapes and colours, they require well-draining soil, bright light, and minimal watering, making them ideal for indoors or outdoors.

Oh well. Never mind eh.

Funny. I thought you'd like them given that you have similarities to them:

"Succulents are diverse, ...... thick, fleshy ..... designed to store water, thriving in arid climates and often used in low-maintenance. Popular for their varied shapes .... minimal watering, making them ideal for indoors."
