Has anyone here heard of the garden blog Succulents&More which is written by Gerhard Bock? It is such a resource for learning of new gardens to see and interesting plants as well. Gerhard is an excellent garden photographer and when he visits a garden he shoots a lot of them. I first learned of his blog when another gardening friend referred me to it when he blogged about visiting my garden on a Garden Conservancy open day three years ago on April 28 of 2017. Since then he has gotten involved in two groups I am in, the California Horticultural Society and the Hortisexuals (AKA the Bay Area Horticultural Society) and we've visited a number of gardens together as well as each others a couple more times.
So here is the link to his blog of visiting my garden the first time: [succulentsandmore.com]
He blogged about his second visit here a year later when he took even more photos: [succulentsandmore.com]
*To see all the photos and read all of what he wrote you have to click on "Read More" at the bottom of each page.
Gerhard lives about an hour east of me in Davis, California. Twice he has hosted coffee events which I organize for Cal Hort. Here are a few pictures from one of these at his garden.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.

Posted by 1patriotOne of the main reasons for last year’s ‘spike’, which the media and government agencies have avoided mentioning, is the Hunga Tonga volcano eruption two years ago.
