The University of California at Santa Cruz Arboretum is a gem containing a huge collection of plants from representatives of more than 300 plant families of Mediterranean climates — specifically Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and California — a climate characterized by dry summers and mild, wet winters. I encountered a bit of a surprise on the last little part of my walkabout at the University of California Santa Cruz Arboretum — plants that I would not associate with a Mediterranean climate. They look to me to be more at home in a desert. They will indeed grow in California (otherwise they would not have survived here at the western base of the Santa Cruz Mountains) but I think of them as more Arizonan. But what do I know after a long career in computers and a retirement career in photography. This appears to be a variety of Aeonium, most varieties of which are native to the Canary Islands. They are very popular in horticulture.
