Use the Right Container and Soil

To create the perfect succulent garden, start by choosing the right container with drainage holes and filling it with well-drained soil. Use any container that fits your style while ensuring it is deep enough for the plant's root system. Succulent plants thrive in cactus or succulent soil mix, or in a mix of sand and potting soil. Mix the soil and fill the container, leaving enough room for the plants.

Choose Your Plants

When creating your succulent garden, choose a mix of plants with different shapes, sizes, and colors. This will provide visual interest and a more diverse look. Consider plants with tall, upright forms, as well as those with a trailing habit. Look for succulents with colors that range from soft pastels to bright, vivid hues.

Plant Your Succulents

Remove your plants from their original containers and loosen the soil around the roots. Place your plants in the container and fill in with soil. Gently press the soil down, and water lightly to help the soil settle.
