Owners Bob Webb and Toni Yocum have
grown succulent plants for more than 35
years, many of which were obtained from
Arid Lands Greenhouses before they bought it in 2006. They have
traveled extensively in Africa and
Arabia, looking for and photographing
succulent plants. They have been to
Oman, Yemen, Socotra, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Namibia,
Botswana, and South Africa.
They live in the Sonoran Desert, and Toni is that rare Tucson native.
Bob and Toni frequently give talks on their travels and expertise with plants. Bob has described several Agave and Sansevieria for publication as new species.
Eddie Silva, Angel Martinez, Tammy Clark, Carrie Rose, David Ludwig, and Oscar Navarro work at the nursery and can help you in person or on the phone.
