Succulents are my new obsession. Not all that new I guess because I remember them being my favorite part of our landscaping as a child. I have never had much of a green thumb but in the past few weeks I’ve managed to keep all of my plants alive and watered and being as succulents are super easy to care for I plan on planting some in a pot to put out on our balcony. After looking at these photos you’ll want to do the same!

Hen and Chicks or Echeveria Geranium. These are the ones I remember loving!

Finally, for those of you who just want to go out and buy a beautiful, ready to go arrangement check out Greenware Design.

Greenware Design combines the talents of two longtime friends, Irene McCollam and Leslie Geer. Irene, the potter, creates original ceramics on her pottery wheel. Leslie, the planter, fills them up with unique succulent plantings. Together they design each planter with loving care—getting their hands dirty so you won’t have to.
