mmmmm echeveria, opuntia, delosperma,agaves etc CAN survive in your location BUT only in a milder winters and without getting too wet. They are never going to be dead certs to get through winter but some will. The opuntia imbricata that I have posted a photo of will get through the worst of winters pretty much ok so that's a good starting point. A bit of experimentation will be needed and I would urge you to think of using rain shelters for more borderline succulents.dgroberts wrote:So, I'm sure you experts could provide a few examples of echeveria, opuntia, delosperma,agaves that will survive the cold/wet conditions of south yorkshire.

Thanks again for all the info. There seems to be some differences of opinion as to whether cacti/succulents will survive the cold/wet of the UK, yet there are pictures of them doing so in yorkshire.

I have got echeverias through winters only by keeping them bone dry. The same goes for agaves.
