They’re hot! They’re cool! They’re succulents! With water conservation in mind, succulents and cacti are more popular than ever. Low maintenance and versatile, they are available everywhere–from specialty websites to supermarkets. But low maintenance is not the same as no maintenance, and some succulents can be as fussy as the most temperamental orchid or fern.
Author, educator, and self-confessed plant nerd Sandy Masuo provides some fascinating natural history background about these unique plants as well as basic cultivation information to help you know and grow succulents, and inspire you to explore this remarkable group of plants.
Online class includes a demonstration of how to make a succulent mosaic planter.
