Is there any hardy succulent plants associated with graves and graveyards in the UK?

The reason I dug up this thread a few days ago was because a friend asked me for a cactus for his parents grave. Yea I know a bit morbid. Of course I had to tell him I had nothing suitable. It's a different topic but I rarely get visitors to my greenhouses, but when I do and they normally ask for a ...

It has been nice seeing photos of other peoples versions of this plant. It does look like it would make a good 'wall or rockery' plant but I think it may be to large for most greenhouses, I mean you could get 20x Turbinicarpus in that space :lol: You're right of course.

When I lost most of my collection to frost around 2010/11. All I remember now is wheelie bins full of skeletal remains.

When I lost most of my collection to frost around 2010/11 it took me a good six to eight months to determine what was dead and what had survived. If I remember correctly, most that died tended to go hard shelled and gradually loose colour rather than turn immediately to mush. Perhaps I missed the mu...

I started the book but found it fairly heavy going to be honest.
I'll have to start again....

I had this problem about six months ago. Lots of other people on the internet with the same problem. External links were defaulting to the Mail app, not Outlook. Lots of things were suggested, including modifying the registry, but nothing worked for me so I just gave up. Just tried to set my default...
