Succulents in a Strawberry Pot

On Mother’s Day I made an arrangement out of succulent plants to give as a present. Instead of a traditional bouquet of flowers, this one is an ideal gift because you can grow them and you don’t have to spend a lot of money on these succulents.

A few years ago I bought some strawberry pots, but I wasn’t very successful with growing strawberries. Instead I planted succulents last year and I was surprised that it grew back beautifully in the spring. I mixed different colors, textures, and heights, which contrasted like weeds crawling all over the pot. This is actually a low-maintenance plant, so it’s not very hard to take care of and maintain.

If it grows very big, you can prune it and transfer it to another pot.

This is a very nice present. You can plant it in a differently-shaped pot, mug, old teapot, basket, or anything that you like.

Just make sure that you pick a variety of succulents!
