Propagating and Transplanting Succulents

Succulents

The easiest plant to to care for!

Creating more of them aka propagating them is just as easy! Pull off a leaf lay it in the dirt and before you know it (within a few days) you will notice it start to sprout a new growth. This one has been growing for a few weeks but is totally taking off!

I've had some items sitting around the house that either needed to be utilized or be gone. Some having sentimental value belonging to relatives who have passed. It's so nice to give new life to things you know we're loved and left to you rather than get rid of them.

These cases are a perfect example, they are beautiful, however not exactly modern or go with many designs. So turning it into a plant totally changes the game.

Basically I broke off pieces of succulents I already have and gave them new homes creating even more beautiful plants. Now plants that are in meaningful homes.

These were some of @gomatthew late Aunt's vases

They all turned out beautiful!

Here are a couple of the others. Made from vintage items we had.

It really is easy as plucking a leaf and regrowing a new plant! They make great gifts when you run out of space!

succulents are the only plants that do okay in my apartment. It is SO hot and dry here (south africa) in summer that I had to take all my basil plants off the balcony into the kitchen.

You have inspired me to plant some succulents in some vintage cups i have lying around! will send pics soon xxx

Yes they do great in the heat too! I hope you do, I can't wait to see them!

WOW. they look so sweet. I saw them for the first time! I wonder if there is any odor ...
