In the wild

Mixed succulents give the room a sense of company and unity. They grow in mainly dry environments like deserts & mountains from South Africa, Mexico, Argentina & central Americas. Offering a mix is the perfect succulent gift idea as you get a variety of plants of different colours, textures and shapes in one beautiful planter.

How not to kill your Succulent mix:

Don’t forget…

     Tough together

     Love direct or filtered sunlight 

     Every 10 days in the summer and every 14 days in the winter.  As for the cactus plants in the mix, try to water them only once a month with very little water. Make sure the top 1.5cm of soil is dry before watering.

      They do well in a normal room environment.

      Not toxic or harmful to humans or pets.   

A little more… 

      Can tolerate air conditioning.

      Love dry and well-drained soil. Add sand to improve the drainage.

      During the growth period, you can feed them with some fertiliser. However, they don’t generally need it.

      Once a year, use a container 2-5cm larger in diameter than the original pot.

But how do I know the exact amount of water to use?

Do not worry! We got you, the steps are easy. Here are the amounts:

• Mini (Small) 100ml
• Midi (Medium) 250ml
• Lush (Large) 400ml

Firstly, fill a coffee mug with the amount suggested for your plant friend, use our water dropper to transfer the water from the mug to your stones. That’s it!

Common problems of mixed succulents: 

Problem: Leaves becoming soft, soggy and mushy

Cause: Overwatering

Solution: To avoid this problem make sure you provide your succulent plants with drainage and use our dropper to water directly on the stones.

Problem: Dried brown leaf edges

Cause: Too much sunlight also known as ‘sun burn’.

Solution: To avoid this, make sure your plants are in a bright spot but protected from direct sun (only needs 6 hours).

Problem: Trouble standing up, soft, smells and no new growth.

Cause: Roots are rotting

Solution: Unpot and cut the rotten roots. Leave the roots to dry out for a day or two and repot them in fresh compost and place under the sun and add the amount of water recommended.
