Kalanchoe luciae [K. thyrsiflora, Hort.]

This plant category puts together as a group unrelated plants that have adapted to extreme xeric conditions by developing methods of retaining moisture in their succulent or swollen stem, leaves or caudex (base). In the classic sense this includes the leafless stems of cacti but also includes the less obviously succulent plants such as Yucca. Many cacti and succulent collectors also include plants such as bulbs (with (plants that have underground, fleshy storage structures) and xeric cycads in their collections although we exclude the cycads from this list completely because we list them separately on their own Cycad Page. While we include some succulent lily families here, a complete list of bulbs can be found on our Bulb Page. A complete list of the Succulents we grow can be found by performing a Succulent Search of our database. Other information about succulents and specific searches for succulent groups can be found below.
