But there's one particularly interesting front yard in San Francisco that I will attempt to find. It has a driveway (!) with low-growing succulents in the center.Gerhard Bock (Succulents and More)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17583583634141549759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-9420267693118383622017-12-12T08:31:03.664-08:002017-12-12T08:31:03.664-08:00Wow.
