| Description | Aeonium arboreum 'Atropurpureum'

They prefer warmer climates, so keep in full sun. Advisable to keep outdoors. Do not over water, minimal water required.
6'' pot | Dactylis glomerata
Both cats and dogs need a little grass in their diets, especially if they do not spend a lot of time outdoors. So if you have a pet, growing pet grass is a great idea. You can grow it in pots for your indoor pets. Growing pet grass is easy. Like other grasses, pet grass prefers full sun and well-drained soil kept evenly moist.
