How to Create a Portable Succulent Garden
Have you ever grown succulents in your home? They are some of the easiest plants to grow indoors and offer multiple benefits as well as beauty! But where do you put them so they get the best light? How do you know when you have the right location to let them grow? I recently received some assorted succulents and decided to create a portable succulent garden so I can easily test different lighting spaces and find their perfect happy place!

Directions:

New to Succulents?
Did you know you can order succulents and air plants from SucculentsBox.com? What a fun idea for birthday or Christmas gifts when you want to send a gift to someone special! Succulents have beautiful flowers, are super easy to grow, come in a variety of shapes and colors, are relatively pest free and they’re low maintenance. Give them a succulent gift they can admire and grow at home, office or garden to make a perfect green space.
Don’t forget garden gloves when you start working with new plants. Whether you are working in the garden outside or replanting your succulents, garden gloves can protect your hands and even help keep your rings clean. I love these new Digz Gloves that come in three different lengths so I can pick and choose how much coverage I need when I am working with my plants.
I’ll check back in a few months and let you see how my new succulents are growing! Do you grow succulents in your home? Got any tips for the best lighting or location for these special types of indoor plants? I’d love to hear!
