Tips from Fran

Raoulia autralis is another fun plant name. RA-OU-LI-A…see it just rolls off your tongue. And…it is a great plant! Plant it in super great draining soil and forget it. DO NOT OVERWATER THIS PLANT. It will rot for sure if you do. Mound up when planting, which should help keep it dry or plant in gravel to keep water off.
