Today’s (also tomorrow’s etc.) literature is found on the website Gardening in South Africa.
It’s not because Soekershof Walkabout is mentioned in it but it provides the reader with some insight in the evolution of the succulents. Just interesting background.
The website is, in spare time, made by Darlene Roelofsen who is employed in a nursery. She is absolutely devoted to her plants!

A Chara,
very useful web, due to build a garden in SA this november – plant-wise, more beneficial than 59 irish men who’ve never been there before!
best regards

Enjoying your site. So many south African plants are cultivated in mediterranean style gardens across the world, but its rare to find gardeners posting about the plants and their gardens; the search engines need to pick you guys up!
Maybe Garden voices –
