Succulents are ideal for anyone with little time or who is a beginner with plants, as they don’t need much care as long as you ensure proper watering and soil. The name refers to their ability to store water in their leaves (stems and roots), which, for this reason, have the fleshy, succulent appearance that characterises them. This is also what makes them very sustainable plants. There are countless species of succulents, but all need light, well-draining soil, little water, and some indirect sunlight to thrive<\/p>\n

Common names<\/strong>: Succulents \/ popular names may vary depending on each species
Family<\/strong>: Crassulaceae (though variations may exist, depending on the specimen)
Origin<\/strong>: Diverse, especially areas with arid and semi-arid climates
Category<\/strong>: Indoor plants (or outdoor, as long as sheltered from direct sun or extreme heat)
Approximate height<\/strong>: 15cm
Pot diameter<\/strong>: 12cm<\/p>\n
Light<\/strong>: Prefers spots with indirect light. Avoid placing them in direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves.
Watering<\/strong>: Prefers little water and can tolerate periods without watering. The best way to check if the plant needs water is to do the “finger test”, inserting it into the soil and watering only if you find it dry.
Soil<\/strong>: Light, well-draining substrates
Toxicity – Pet Friendly?<\/strong> Varies. For example, Echeveria<\/em> is safe for cats. But Euphorbia<\/em>, Crassula<\/em>, and Kalanchoes<\/em> are toxic. Since this is a mixed selection of succulents, we can’t know which one you’ll receive, so we recommend keeping your pet away from the plant you’ve purchased until you confirm that the variety is safe for pets.<\/p>\n
