Echeveria Crassulaceae Never leave water sitting in the rosette; it stretches quickly in low light. Echinacea Asteraceae Leave the seed heads over winter – birds love them and the plant overwinters better. Echinocactus Cactaceae Slow growing; the golden barrel only flowers once it reaches 30–40 cm across. Echinocereus Cactaceae After a cold, bone-dry winter it produces enormous flowers; many species are frost hardy. Echinopsis Cactaceae Its huge, often scented flowers open at night and last only 1–2 days – watch the buds! Epiphyllum Cactaceae An epiphytic forest cactus: airy humus-rich mix, bright shade, cooler and drier in winter. Epipremnum Araceae One of the toughest climbers; too little light reduces variegation. Epithelantha Cactaceae These tiny globes want full sun and very little water – water sparingly even in summer. Eranthis Ranunculaceae Soak the tubers overnight before planting or they sprout poorly. Erica Ericaceae Water with lime-free water and never let the rootball dry out completely. Eruca Brassicaceae Mildest in spring and autumn; in summer heat it turns peppery and bolts. Eschscholzia Papaveraceae Sow it where it is to flower – it hates transplanting and is best in poor, dry soil. Escobaria Cactaceae Many species survive -15 °C when dry – try one in a rain-sheltered rock garden. Espostoa Cactaceae Never water over its woolly hairs – soak the soil from below instead.
