When I bought my garden shed several years ago, I installed shelves at the windows on each end and started a collection of small, rare cacti. Some of them were prone to rot so instead of potting soil I keep them potted in pumice I purchase from a company in CA. Inside the shed they receive water only when I give it to them. Now dry season is here I am giving them their semi-annual check-up. I took the following photos with my phone. Enjoy.
