As a child we always made a weekend trip to the nursery, or at least it seemed like it. Typically I always got to pick out my own a plant. Without fail I always picked out a succulent or cactus. It wasn&#8217;t easy picking either. I&#8217;m sure what was only 15 minutes seemed like hours to me as a child. There were a few times I picked something other than a succulent, but those were far and few between.
