Very informative! Cuttings need more water than rooted plants👍👍👍

The coloring on the "Debbie" is gorgeous!!!

I'm just trying to keep individual succulents alive and growing! I hope Queen Debbie is happy with all your ministrations! 😁

@aartidhopawkar4611 3 года назад

Now I'm tempted to grow my Succulents under grow light.. Great video! Thank you.

@abbi2957 3 года назад

I like combining succulents to save space😊 Thanks for this video! Now I can be more diligent with what succulents should go together!

@olesyaanderson83 3 года назад

Really liked the first arrangement.

@carolgardon5692 3 года назад

Glad to hear that it isn’t just me that has one succulent die but the other survive in arrangements

@briancoleman8584 3 года назад

Always something new to learn...and some very vital to the plants lives!

@reesemarie9572 3 года назад

I crochet arrangements of succulents and cacti, and never reeeallly thought about how much though would go into arranging a real one!

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

That is so cool!

@noraoneill5821 3 года назад

Looks like I am in good company! It's a puzzle, all this matching of watering, light requirement and pots! I do like bigger statement plants in their own pot - really standout, but I've recently tried mixing a few little growing babies in smaller arrangements and they do look so cute!

@janetneumann9835 3 года назад

I am having so much fun playing with arrangements. It's good to get some directives 😉

@kathycolby3173 3 года назад

Wish I'd seen this video before making those arrangements on the back patio. Hope they live! 😕

@caseyandadelineaguilar3197 3 года назад

great teaching video on succulents, their needs, and how to properly care for them. i loved it - thank you so much!!! :)

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

You are very welcome!🙂

@donnastephens1737 3 года назад

I liked the information it was helpful. I'm still new to succulents and trying to figure out what to put together.

@ophilianecr 3 года назад

This is a great video! Especially since there are other Plant-Tubers I've seen who will make arrangements and not only jam in there as many plants as physically possible (like 11 different baby cuttings into a 1inch pot!!) ; but also combine varieties and sizes without any mention of the different care needs or period of dormancy. This really leads to the erroneous beliefs that succulents and cacti "thrive on neglect " or "they ALL need the same care". I'm sure many people will have a better idea of what their own arrangements need with this video! ♡

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

Thank you so much! Appreciate your feedback🙂

@valzed1 3 года назад

I've been keeping succulents for about 18 months now and I still don't have the courage to make arrangements. I still worry that I'll do something wrong and lose the whole pot of plants.

@RK-wc7pp 3 года назад

Great advice for setting up planters. Will follow your advice for my outdoor planters. Thanks

@sheridavis8885 3 года назад

wow. Your arrangements are beautiful. I don't think I'm ready for that yet, but I will save this for when I am.

@nanaSANDYx10 3 года назад

Newbie to succulents. Need more lessons. Thank you for your info.

@jandeaton4234 3 года назад

This is a great help for creating succulent arrangements. Thanks!

@christyarmstrong8909 3 года назад

Grouping succulents is definitely challenging. I have mostly gone with the trial and error method and some have worked and others not...mostly it’s because I don’t have a ton of room for small individual pots so try to combine them. Some are really taking off though, so happy they are not all fails 😋

@gillianhickton4717 3 года назад

Not quite at the arrangements stage yet...this has provided the push I needed!

@jeankirchner7931 3 года назад

Trial and error for sure. I am anxious to get back to my potted succulents in Florida to see how they survived, died, or flourished with their “neighbors”. I love the look of variety so crossing my fingers.

@cheryld960 3 года назад

Good info for me as I begin to make more group plantings for my expanding succulent garden!!

@rebeccavarela6943 3 года назад

I need some more terra cotta pots!! Thanks for the info!

@GrowUrLife 3 года назад

This is something I'm open to trying, now that I have a guideline!

@lindalemons4496 3 года назад

@eshelovesdogs 3 года назад

I love the cactus arrangement. This is the area I struggle in, combining succulents...thank you!

@barbaraaddon6418 3 года назад

I always struggle with putting in too few vs. too many succulents in arrangements.

@RandiJoy1961 3 года назад

I have not yet concord the arrangement craft, but I am still trying! Thank you again for all of your wisdom with this....it is VERY helpful! 😁

@patriciasircy4109 3 года назад

The one time I attempted a succulent arrangement, the stand I had the planter on collapsed spilling the plants & breaking them. I never tried again. Your video hAs encouraged me to do it again.

@timdixon5368 3 года назад

Great video again, haven’t started doing many arrangements yet but great suggestions.thank you Rhonda Dixon

@shannonholby8416 3 года назад

Great information, I will have to apply this to the arrangements I plan on making!

@karmakauffman7445 3 года назад

I love your arrangements! It’s helpful to look at arranging in terms of who will live well with who. I mainly struggle with deciding what will look good in an arrangement (colors, shapes, etc.) and then knowing how much space to leave in an arrangement.

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

Thank you! For help with colors and shapes that go well together, you may find this video to be helpful as well: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8mLam6EmpBQ.html

@beverlyhardy4398 3 года назад

This is great information. I have tried (and failed) with several. It’s definitely trial and error for me. Thanks for this video.

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

You are very welcome! Hope it helps

@joycelaubach2645 3 года назад

It is sooo tempting to prioritize visual appeal when grouping succulents. Thanks for emphasizing the importance of instead prioritizing cultural requirements.

@marjxowisno 3 года назад

Love what you said about the trial and error. I used to be so afraid on making some succulents arrangements before. But this spring is different I started making some arrangements as my experiment :) we shall see if they survive or not.

I truly am in the trial and error stage of learning who loves to be together!

@dyrcosis 3 года назад

I really enjoy grouping succulents and while it can be very rewarding, as you said, it's not always successful. Some of my more successful arrangements tend to include various plants in the same species. For instance, I have pot of three very different aloe growing together and another with various gasteria. I'd also love to make another pot of fuzzy kalanchoe to replace the ones I lost to the winter storm. But it's also fun mixing species and one of my favorites is a mix of zebra plant (Haworthia fasciata) on one side, Tiger Jaws (Faucaria tigrina) taking up a third of the space, and a variety of Haworthia emelyae snuggled up against it.

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing! That sounds like a fun arrangement 🙂

@foreverartist5454 3 года назад

This is great information! I'm definitely wary of starting an arrangement but after watching this video I feel more confident in creating one!

@lorit5074 3 года назад

Thank you. I’m just starting out with succulents. This is great information!!!

@ckzamzow 3 года назад

All my succulents are in individual pots but may have to try pairing a few up. Thanks!

@rosenelson5748 3 года назад

This was mind blowing, so much info, thank you so much. I have so many succulents in little pots, it’s time to try an arrangement

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

You are very welcome! Glad it was helpful for you 🙂

@jennifernicoletti6866 3 года назад

I have tiptoed into doing an arrangement, if I can even call it that! Last weekend I planted my new burrito and jade plants together in a terra cotta pot (by coincidence since you just pointed that out in your video). We shall see how it does..then I'll dip more toes in.

@michellel2071 3 года назад

This video came at the perfect time. Thx! I have a couple of bigger pots and was wondering what the rules were for keeping everyone happy. 😁

@allthemusiclive 3 года назад

I tried to make a few arrangements just a few weeks ago. A bit early to say how they're doing but at least they look nice 😁

@hayleyprintz1802 3 года назад

Good info. I love experimenting with mine!

@aliciabarbour6256 3 года назад

I never repot my succulents from the arrangement I get at the store. But I'm beginning to learn they don't plant properly- soil, water, or similarity. Thanks for the video! More confidence to take better care of milk babies

@donnathurlow4776 3 года назад

Thank you for the info. I'm new to growing succulents and didn't think about grouping them could be challenging. I only have one pot with several succulents and so far have been lucky as they are doing good.

@fraukeg.facchini2691 3 года назад

@allisonmcelwee7639 3 года назад

I have one pot that has multiple plants and it has been a trial and error experience. Soak and dry method is what I stick to and I make sure that all the plants in the pot need the same amount of watering. Your container tip is very helpful for adjusting to slightly different watering needs. I just wish I could get all my plants to get bigger. I have grow lights on for twelve hours and keep track of watering as needed (by looking at their leaves).

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

Glad it was a helpful tip and the soak and dry method has been working for you!

@momwastestime 3 года назад

Another helpful video! Thanks again! 👍🏻

@Melissa-hc9gs 3 года назад

Thank you so much for this video. :D I am about to make two separate arrangements - one of the full sun-loving succulents, and one of bright shade. They are all cuttings, so I am hoping I can get them to all establish well together.

@lindavanderstelt2499 3 года назад

When I made arrangements I basically looked at what looked good together. I had some success with that but now after watching your video I see I need to go about it in a different way. Thank you for all of the information!

@jennifercarr2558 3 года назад

I never knew that about the terra cotta. Your videos are always so informative! 🌵

@Jennabullis 3 года назад

Great timing for me, I am just trying my first arrangement. Thanks for the tips!

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

Awesome! You are very welcome

@lgbass57 3 года назад

Another very informative video. I am a beginner and it's wonderful to have your guidance to prevent me from making too many mistakes.

@stacychowaniec4198 3 года назад

I made a few arrangements in the past few weeks, totally not realizing different needs. They’re doing ok, so far....

@LoanNguyen-js6zd 3 года назад

i did not know that zebra plant likes shade. I got mine in the afternoon sun !!! i need to move it today .

@cheryldecker7451 3 года назад

I really struggle with putting succulents together that need the same amount of light and water. Thank you for all the great tips!

@kristyhettinga9326 3 года назад

Great information! I have just recently started with small arrangements just to test my succulents. It's so fun when it works out beautifully.

@patriciainman1985 3 года назад

Fun to hear how to combine succulents. You have taught me to have each plant in a separate pot and just display them next to each other. LOL

@janswenson4342 3 года назад

Your videos are the best!

@mariagodoy8766 3 года назад

Thanks for doing this video this is super helpful and it’s making me want to make some changes. Also do you have a video on which types of succulents are summer dormant vs winter dormant and how to care for them during their dormancy period?

@artzyBLUEeyes 3 года назад

I'm not an arrangement type of girl but these were very pretty and put together well. I especially liked the cactus one, all had their own space which is probably how I'd make an arrangement if I ever do.

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

Thank you!!

@CrystalWedel 3 года назад

Trial and error - that's been my whole succulent experience so far! LOL

@BarbieFromQuar 2 года назад

Well, one thing I found out is Crassulas do not like 110 degree weather for weeks on end. My poor Ivory towers is sunburned and melting. So is my Crassula rupestris. I brought the rippled Jade in long time ago. I need to pull them out of the arrangements, because the other plants are likin the heat. Good info!

@tarahovis8743 3 года назад

Glad for the info! As a beginner plant mom, this was helpful.

@debracarter8520 3 года назад

Love the first arrangement. It's so pretty!

@mckenziedavidson7237 3 года назад

I’m still not confident in my arrangements so many of mine are in individual pots but I am going to start trying to put some new arrangements together soon!

@carolynfernandez586 3 года назад

I wish I could be more successful with arrangements. Definitely trial and error on what works together and I’m still learning! 🤩

@leaflover3497 2 года назад

Your arrangements look a lot like mine. Usually I start with a jade for height, one or two rosette plants for color, and then a donkey tail and a string of pearls for trailing. I honestly just do plants that look good together and haven’t worried that much about individual watering needs. All of the plants seem happy.

@cherylhamel2018 3 года назад

Love this! Such great info!!! Thanks. 👍

@koryl8477 3 года назад

So encouraging. Trial and error here welcome. Do you use completely new soil or a mixture of old and new? What do you do with the old soil?

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

A little bit of both. I just depends on what I have available. I do try to reuse soil when I'm repotting as long as the plants were healthy. But I tend to get a lot of new plants, so I end up using new soil too :)

@Desiraeh1 3 года назад

I am go glad you had this video. I was potting some of my succulents and started looking up what plant would work best together. I was also wondering if you could put succulents and catus together in an arrangement. I feel like you are making these videos just for me.

@sondrawilson6232 3 года назад

The terracotta pots are my go to pots from now on! In addition, I didn't realize there were so many different types of succulents, let alone the fact that the have different requirements. There is so much to "soak up" but I know that I can just go back to a video to review. Thanks:)

@cathyroberts2890 3 года назад

I learn the soak and dry method from one of your earlier videos and I love it. Do succulents like to be crowded in with other succulents ?

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

They can go either way. More space between succulents gives them more room to grow and spread. Planting them close together slows down the growth and will keep them a little smaller. It just depends on what you want them to do :)

@kompactorGD 3 года назад

So many good tips!! It’s still hit and miss for me but I’m looking forward to trying more arrangements!

@jannajewett9672 3 года назад

I always just keep my in separate pots but maybe I’ll give it a try now

@brendabarriat1311 3 года назад

Cassidy I use the gritty mix also but it’s so hard to get my water meter down into the soil to see if it needs water. Do you have a suggestion for this?

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

We don't recommend using a water meter with a gritty mix -- it won't get a true measurement. Instead, follow the directions in this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9-yp-JPXENM.html

Carrie thanks so much for this video! I love looking at all the great arrangements out there and would love to do a few myself but have feared not knowing which ones are better together. Another great lesson! Thank you.

@bevmallett484 3 года назад

This has been a major frustration for me! Now I know what not to put together in a arrangement!

@42curlyworms 3 года назад

I haven’t started making arrangements yet but I have switched mostly to terra cotta and bonsai jack. It’s weird to see some of mine showing me signs of being under watered. Still trying to figure it all out!

@teresamaldonado5198 3 года назад

I have not had good results in arrangements of different succulents, now I keep them individually in each pot.

@kimmiev9110 3 года назад

I think for arrangements I'll have to level up from newbie! Yours look lovely and happy. 🥰 Question: How do you determine the depth of pot to use? I've learned width should be about an inch or so bigger than the plant, but depth is, well... out of my depth. 😝 Is there a secret? Thank you, again, for sharing your knowledge with us!

@Succulentsandsunshine 3 года назад

I like to have as much depth as my plants are tall. But that doesn't always work out... But I avoid really deep pots as they take longer to dry out.

@sharonjames6674 3 года назад

Great subject! We’ve all killed a few by not following these suggestions

@tracymarick3683 3 года назад

Right now all of my succulents are in their own Terracotta pots. I would love top figure out how to put them together I'm afraid to do that. Even if i buy puts that have multiple plants in i take them apart to get them in gritty mix.

@sharonpernes3487 2 года назад

So you don’t necessarily plan ahead to use only succulents that need the same needs with sun and water in an arrangements? I’m new and have been dreading even thinking about making an arrangement. Part of my problem is that I don’t know what many of my little succulents are and am trying to identify them still. Thanks for the video. I think I can relax a bit with your cheat sheet and not worry as much. Love the cactus one!.

@Succulentsandsunshine 2 года назад

It is best practice to plan ahead what the lighting and watering requirements are for the succulents you are combining. However as this video shows you can also still combine completely different succulents and still have them grow together. They may not all thrive as well though in these types of arrangements. They key to making it all possible is well draining soil and using a pot that wicks away the moisture from the soil. Glad the video was helpful as well as the cheat sheet!
