In Reply to: Photo series of outdoor sulcata enclosure posted by Karl H. Betz on July 11, 2001 at 21:10:26:

: As promised I am putting up the photos of our outdoor enclosure as we were putting it up. Before I get a lot of grief, we removed all of the "weeds", trumpet vine, and any other plants that we couldn't identify (some of which show up in some of the earlier pics. So far, we have planted several hibiscus, hen & chicks, portulacas, purslane, spider plant, boston fern, wandering jew and various grasses which are really taking hold and covering up all of the dirt. Our two sulcatas are out all day, most days (when it's not raining). I have added a shade area with a full sheet of plywood attached to the southern wall and supported by landscaping timbers posted into the ground. Our torts seem very happy with their area and have really started growing like weeds.
: Enjoy, Karl & Cyndi
