Plant shopping today

Succulent (Hipstamatic app) 

Succulent, love the symmetry.  

Plumeria 

I went "shopping" for ideas today ... time to start planning the garden and succulents and drought-tolerant plants are at the top of my list.  Water is very expensive in San Diego, I learned that 95% of our water is purchased, so while the state of California is off water restriction (the drought is over), the water companies here are asking us to continue to conserve on water use.

Today I scouted out two nurseries that deal with drought-tolerant  plants.  The plumeria was found at a nursery that specializes in "tropical" plants.  Took a few photos with the iPhone,  these were my top 3 favorites.
