Iziphuzo ezilengisiwe zibukeka zizinhle… noma kuphi! Isibonelo, kuvulandi, ulenga ophahleni (ngaphakathi endlini), noma etafuleni elincane neliphakeme. Eziningi zazo zikhiqiza izimbali zokuhlobisa ngempela, kepha ngisho nalezo ezingenayo amanani wokuhlobisa athakazelisa kakhulu.
Enye yezinzuzo ezingenakubalwa abanazo kunezinye izinhlobo zezitshalo ukuthi zidinga amanzi amancane. Ngenxa yemvelaphi yabo kanye nokuziphendukela kwemvelo obekufanele bakwenze kuze kube manje, bafunde ukuhlala ezifundeni lapho amazinga okushisa ephakeme kakhulu nalapho isomiso kuyinkinga ejwayelekile. Ngakho-ke uma ufuna ukuhlobisa ikhaya lakho nabo, bheka ukukhetha kwethu.
Yini ama-succulents?
Kulesi sihloko uzobona izithombe zama-cacti nama-succulents, futhi leyo yinto engakumangaza. Kepha ungakhathazeki: inencazelo yayo. Ngalokho, kufanele wazi ukuthi siyini isitshalo esimnandi ngempela. Ngeke ngichaze kabanzi ngalokhu, ngoba manje ngiyaneliseka ukuthi uyakwazi lokho okumnandi yileso sitshalo (noma ngabe siyini) esithola amanzi amancane endaweni yaso yemvelo okuphoqeleke ukuthi sigcine amanzi amaningi ngangokunokwenzeka engxenyeni ethile yomzimba waso lapho lina, ngokwesibonelo emaqabungeni ayo uma kuba neziphuzo ezinomsoco, noma ngaphakathi kakhulu komzimba wayo uma kwenzeka kungu-cacti.
Kukhona ezinye izitshalo ezenza okufanayo, kepha ikakhulukazi ezentengiselwano, aziweli esigabeni samaSucculents, njenge baobab. Lesi yisihlahla esijwayelekile se-savanna, esiphendule isiqu sayo saba yisitolo esikhulu samanzi, okwenza sibe sikhulu kakhulu. Eqinisweni, kuthiwa kuthatha abantu abangafika kwabangu-20 ukugona isiqu somhlanga omdala. Kuyamangalisa, awucabangi?
Ukulenga ukukhethwa kwezitshalo ezinamanzi
Ama-succulents yizitshalo ezithakazelisa kakhulu, ikakhulukazi uma sikhuluma ngokulenga. Bahlobisa ikhaya ngendlela eyisimanga, futhi futhi abadingi ukunakekelwa okuningi. Kepha kukhona yini?

Ucabangani ngalezi zithambile ezilenga? Futhi iyiphi oyithande kakhulu? 🙂
