Planted


I'm seeing if my thumbs have gotten any greener since the last time I brought a plant home. I'm still traumatized by the fact I turned this sweet little plant into a rotting heap. We'll see how it goes with succulents. Right now, I'm erring on the side of not watering rather than over-watering. Anybody have tips on growing succulents? Do they enjoy words of affirmation? Because I do think they're the cutest.

    You should pinch their cute, little cheeks! Nick and I try to spend time daily with our plants being as they are a precursor to a dog which is a precursor to a child or children.

    I echo dreamday and Michelle. We have succulents lining our driveway and front steps, and they're growing like crazy.

    They ARE cute, aren't they? Words of affirmation are never a bad thing! :)

    Sorry this is late, I just found your blog - I LOVE IT - and am just catching up! Succulents are my specialty, I always tell people when I share my plants: "If you think it needs water, wait 2 or 3 weeks, then water!" There are some really cool one, I'm a collector!
