great garden for so far north! I assume you place a 'roof' over that to keep those succulents nice and dry.......nice set up.

elburro, I don't have much of a desert garden, but here are a few pics:

Very nice, Janci! Wish you to complete the project before winter comes. Is there enough drainage for the yucca plants?

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

You never keep snow/moisture off your yuccas, Janci?
Enjoy winter, now that it's arrived.

Those yuccas are going to be a real treat in the garden.
April is also when I plant things from in to out.

WOW, great collection of Yucca seedlings.
They look super healthy and happy.
I'm glad to see the Y. gloriosa 'white shed'. That is a very nice Yucca in my garden......it's over 7 feet (2.1m) tall now and super hardy. This Yucca was sent to me from Jim Kelly of New Jersey as an unusual looking Yucca in his area.
Here's an old link showing this Yucca......it's much taller now!!

Janci,, that's some serious yucca collecting
Well done.
Just a question...in photo 4, is that a true Rostrata?
Leaves look a tiny bit wide.
But maybe they thin out as the plant ages.
It'll be great to see where you put all those seedlings.
