There was a time when many looked down on succulents because of their thick, fleshy and cactus-like looks. However, today, it turns out that succulents are part of a big gardening trend and are often used to create an aesthetic appeal. So, here are some of the best ways to “decorate” your garden with succulents.

Make a Gorgeous Succulent Terrarium

Make a Gorgeous Succulent Terrarium What you’ll need:

  • Faux Succulents
  • Moss
  • White rocks
  • Galvanized metal lantern

Instructions to make a gorgeous succulent terrarium:

Step 1: You should start by gathering all the supplies you need to create this beautiful succulent terrarium. 

Step 2: Take the lantern and the white rocks at the bottom. If you want to color the rocks, you are free to.

Step 3: Now, add the moss and then the succulents. If you’ve obtained a large aloe succulent, for example, trim it and try not to make it look too big – you’d want a balance. You can also choose to include hen and chick succulents as they can add a lot of dimension to a terrarium.

Step 4: It’s time to re-arrange all the layers of succulents. My tip is for you to avoid crowing the terrarium with too many succulents and opt for a simple and spacious style. The display can also look good if you add succulents outside the terrarium as well.

Note: If you like the idea of using real succulents for your terrarium, make sure to add potting soil inside the lantern. And, since the lantern has an opening at the top, your succulents will be able to breathe.

Mini Mason Jar Succulent Starters

Mini Mason Jar Succulent StartersWhat you’ll need:

  • Potting Soil
  • Succulents
  • A spoon
  • Mason jars

Instructions to make Mini Mason Jar Succulent Starters:

Step 1: You should start by filling your mason jars with potting soil –they should be about ¾ full. And, remember to create a small hole right in the middle of the jar –that’s where you’ll place the succulent.

Step 2: Now, take your succulents out of their pots and break up their roots a little bit, getting rid of the previous soil and then putting them in the hole you created in the mason jars.

Step 3: If the potting soil is not enough, add some more until the roots are fully covered and the succulent is secured in its place.

Step 4: Repeat the same process as mentioned in steps 2 and step 3 for the other succulents as well.

Step 5: Once you are done, wrap the succulent starters in ribbon and place small markers inside with a happy little message. You can even place some tiny decorative rocks or pebbles on the top of jar.
