Decorating your backyard can be an endless job. There's so much plants to choose from, and each and every one of them has it's own advantages. Today I'd like to talk about succulents. Besides estetics they can be used for various other things. One of the most famous succulent is of course [url="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aloe_vera"]Aloe Vera[/url].

In herbal science, succulent plants, otherwise called succulents, are plants that have a few sections that are more than typically thickened and beefy, for the most part to hold water in dry atmospheres or soil conditions. "Succulent" originates from the Latin word sucus, which means juice. Succulent plants may store water in different parts, for example, leaves and stems. In green use, the expression "succulent" is in some cases utilized in a way which prohibits plants that botanists would see as succulents, for example, desert plants. Succulents are regularly developed as fancy plants due to their striking and surprising appearance.

if you are going to sue succulents for your garden, here are some key features:

The storage of water often gives succulent plants a more swollen or fleshy appearance than other plants, a characteristic known as succulence. In addition to succulence, succulent plants variously have other water-saving features. These may include:

- Absent, reduced, or cylindrical-to-spherical leaves
- Stems as the main site of photosynthesis, rather than leaves
- Compact, reduced, cushion-like, columnar, or spherical growth form
- Ribs enabling rapid increases in plant volume and decreasing surface area exposed to the sun
- Waxy, hairy, or spiny outer surface to create a humid micro-habitat around the plant, which reduces air movement near the surface of the - - -- Plant, and thereby reduces water loss and creates shade
- Roots very near the surface of the soil, so they are able to take up moisture from very small showers or even from heavy dew
- Ability to remain plump and full of water even with high internal temperatures
- Mucilaginous substances, which retain water abundantly

With these caracteristics in mind you can have a clue how they will look like in your garden, or if the will fit-in at all. I would like to mention that some succulents might be poisonous to cats and dogs. This is a thing to keep in mind if you have pets.
