When the sun is blazing they are amazing.

They tend to thrive where no others survive.

They get dry but do not die.

They think it’s fun to sit in the sun.

  2. Succulents and cacti love heat, that’s for sure. The Huernia zebrina looks a little like the monsters’ faces in the first two seasons of “Stranger Things”. 🙂
