SUCCULENTS IN TEMPERATE LANDSCAPE DESIGN Even in our temperate Northern climate it is possible to consider succulents as attractive outdoor additions to the home or formal garden. Harnek Singh will speak about his many years of creative design as a horticulturist at Wave Hill in Riverdale, NY where he is the head of the Cactus/Succulent Greenhouse. He will share the details of what he looks for in plants before choosing them for seasonal succulent displays, including how leaf texture, color, maintenance needs, and propagation ease are carefully considered in these succulents and their companion plants.
