If you know someone with succulents, you should never have to buy them. They're the easiest thing in the world to propagate from clippings. Here I've pinched off a few buds from my mother's massive succulent garden. Ask your source for permission first (or search on craigslist for clippings... I've seen several postings in the "free" section).Let the end of the clipping callous over. This usually takes about a week. Then, pop them in a pot. They fill out within a year. The pot pictured is only a month old.
Because it's so easy, I plan to start a little nursery out back just for succulents. I'll let you know how it goes!
