I have attached a photo of where I
plan to grow the cacti. Bournemouth is a seaside town in southern
England and the altitude of the garden is 41 ft (10 metres approx)
above sea level. Usually minimum is around -7°C and maximum is
around 30°C. Monthly precipitation is usually 75mm in the winter
and 40mm in the summer.
