| I can easily create a section for succulents. I don't grow many myself as I don't have the space and my main love is cacti, of course. Even though they aern't my main love, I know some growers actually prefer succulents to cacti Please vote and I will create the forum if it is popular enough. Thanks. |

| | I think it would be nice to have something but not quite sure what, If you limit it to just succulents you might find someone suggesting that there should be a section for pachyforms, where does it end? |

It ends when I cant add anymore forums to the site lol
So for those who want it, might just have to put up with a smaller section. We shall see, there hasn't been too much interest yet. _________________ mmm spikey... |

| Succulents are cool for decorating a pot or recreating an arid landscape etc. They kinda show your favourite plants in context which just looks better. I personally don't like Euphorbias much but they look OK in a large cacti garden and many cacti growers have them and Aloes and Echeverias etc. I think you should just have a single, broad section for succulents and see how it goes. |
