Succulents are super easy to grow.

via

They come in multitudes of colors and shapes.

via

Love wreaths of them

via

or urns of them.

I could certainly go for a river of succulents winding it's way through my yard.

Yes, they are super easy to grow....

But you know what is even easier?

This faux succulent wreath now available and on sale at Pier 1!

It just might have to come home with me this week.

Still Loving...

I'm still having a love affair with succulents.

The best place I've found to purchase them is

Greenhouse Nursery in Norman, Oklahoma.

Many varieties there.

I did a post about Greenhouse here.

I'll be making a trip there soon now that we are in to planting weather.

Best place to find faux succulents?

I think is Hobby Lobby.

If you don't have a Hobby Lobby in your state....you can shop them online.

They have lots of little ones so you can create a faux succulent garden.

I have yet to try succulents outside...because they won't make it through the winter here.

But I'm thinking they should over winter well inside.

Any thoughts on this?

Want to see more succulents? Check out my Succulents board on Pinterest.

Currently in store at Pier 1  we have this 

painting of a succulent.

I'm kind of loving it. It's large and it's on sale.

Succulents

The Easiest to Grow

This succulent is especially easy to care for because it's fake!

I shared them yesterday included in my St. Patty's Day Decor.

They look and feel just like the real thing...and no care what-so-ever!

I just stuck a few in some foam in a silver bowl, covered it with spanish moss and called it done.

Succulents look amazing in silver containers such as this mercury glass.

via

Lots of silver containers. 

I've got several little silver containers I'd like to put succulents in and I think the faux variety

are the perfect choice as I really don't want soil and water in my silver.

via

Very nice in a birdcage too.

via

Another in mercury glass. It's very special...isn't it?

via

Simply elegant

I added some succulents to the windowsill in my kitchen too.

These are also faux! 

I bought this little long serving dish at Pier 1 recently.

I've had my eye on it for awhile. It's perfect for serving appetizers but I knew it would be 

perfect as a tray to catch water overspill from plants growing on my windowsill in the kitchen.

I plan to put a few pots of herbs here....but...then I found these little pots of faux succulents

and thought...they'd do for now. 

I actually think I might go back and get several more of these long serving dishes to put in other windows around the house.

How many times have I wished I could put an african violet in the window without worrying about 

overspill? 

This little tray is just the thing. 

Pretty and serviceable.

If you are looking for faux succulents by the stem, Hobby Lobby has lots of variety.

The best selection of real succulents I've seen was at Greenhouse Nursery in Norman, Oklahoma.

I saw lots there last summer. I don't know what their selection is at the moment but I'd bet they will 

have plenty in a couple of months.

I really want to do some outside plantings of succulents this spring/summer.

I'll be making a trip to Greenhouse soon for sure.

Are you making all your outdoor garden plans?

Mine is going to start with a big clean up.

Lots of trimming to do and beds to clean out.

Since I had my sewer line repaired a large part of my backyard is red dirt now.

This means Franklin is getting daily baths.

He is not happy about this. He tolerates it well...but does not understand why he is being 

singled out for baths.

The other dogs have the good sense to stay out of the red mud.

Puppies!

I just love em...in spite of having to give that Franklin a daily bath.
