Cacti (fakes for yuppies)
They should satisfy Canucklehead yuppies achieve their misguided vision of
southwestern decor. Now where can they get a stuffed gila monster and a wooden Indian? zhanataya wrote in message ... Yes that's it!! Plants are reclassified too quickly for me to keep up. These should do well don't you think? On Fri, 07 Mar 2003 05:28:09 GMT, "Cereoid+10+" wrote: You mean this stuff?

I would like to crow some cacti in this area, but the room receives very little window light. Are there any varieties that do not require much light? Yes of course, They are all in the family of Silkceae. |

Maybe borrow Kaw-liga from Hank Williams Jr.? Clearly southwestern plants wouldn't work, but there are a few that could be used to lend the same 'feel' as far as decorating goes. Marginata comes to mind if they're very careful about the water. There must be more but I can't think of any right now. |

What about snake's tongue? (Sorry, not able to dredge up the right name.) It's tolerant of low light. Tracey |

At least you didn't say "Mother's in Law Tongue"!!!
Sansevieria are succulents not cacti and they are not native to the American southwest. Tracey wrote in message ... There must be more but I can't think of any right now. What about snake's tongue? (Sorry, not able to dredge up the right name.) It's tolerant of low light. Tracey |

What's a "Marginata"?
You should use the name of the genus. Species epithets are too vague when used alone. zhanataya wrote in message ...

Sansevieria are succulents not cacti and they are not
native to the American southwest. Yah, I know, but they look kind of cactusy (hehe) and might contribute to the overall ambiance. ) Tracey |

Oh, yeah, probably because my mother always called those 'snake's tongue'...probably because we lived right across the road from her MIL/my grandmother and she didn't want us carrying *that* name across the road. Tracey |

At best Sansevierias are only vaguely Agavey, especially after a few shots
of tequila!!! Tracey wrote in message ... Sansevieria are succulents not cacti and they are not native to the American southwest. Yah, I know, but they look kind of cactusy (hehe) and might contribute to the overall ambiance. ) Tracey |
