Recent Gardener - Looking for succulents

Post by MrsQasim »

Hi,

I am a gardener from Islamabad. I started actively gardening last year. I am enthusiastic about both kitchen gardening and ornamental flower gardening. I joined Gardening Pakistan as I am looking for succulents. I googled and was directed to this website.
I will be glad to share my experiences of gardening passes and fails. I am also looking forward to getting tips and advice from seasoned gardeners.

Hi,

At the moment, I am growing tomatoes, cucumber, kadu, basil, peppermint, coriander in the vegetables. My garden is also flowering with sweet peas, aster, sweet william, pansies, roses, dog flowers (forgot the actual name). I also tried growing strawberries and have a fruiting papaya tree as well.

I have some bought from Uk. They suffered badly last summer due to neglect on my part :: but I managed to save a few sprigs. I'll give you some cuttings after they're healthy again inshallah. They smell like mint chocolate chip. I churned some icecream with them 2 years back. It was delicious.
