One of the coolest things I have learned about succulents so far is how they can be propagated. I am actually in the middle of this process now and I’m really hoping it works. How to Propagate I keep reading that you can take stem cuttings of your succulents and propagate them that way, but…
A Succulent Story Part 3
In my last post I talked about purchasing a selection of succulents to use in my first terrarium. Luckily I already had a ceramic dish at home, complete with dirt where an old plant had been housed.
