Noble Plants

Walk down the lush passageway of the Flower District to find one of the best selections of cacti and succulents in the city. Those looking to deck out their windowsills with rock gardens should stock up on burro’s tail, Echeveria variations and mini aloe plants starting at $4 (though you’ll have to get your rocks and planters elsewhere). If you’re worried that your new plants will suffer the same fate as your childhood goldfish, know that you’ll get detailed instructions on how to care for your new flora from the helpful couple that runs the place.
