All About Succulents - and Why You Need One

We’ve all seen the online hype about the trendiest plant on the market - succulents. They’re hard to resist in their colorful, cute potting on store shelves, but what makes these miniature plants so popular this spring?

One of the succulent’s greatest selling points is its minimal care requirements. Succulents retain water, which means they don’t need to be watered often. Like cacti, they are accustomed to surviving with minimal care. This feature makes them perfect for busy students or people that may not have the best green thumb. Aside from their easygoing nature, they are small enough to fit in any size space, and come in a variety of colors to fit any decor style. Succulents can be green, purple, blue, and red, bringing a little bit of vibrance to any home.
