Succulents work great in fairy gardens, allowing the container to be placed in full sun. I make my fairy gardens “kid friendly,” allowing my grandkids to move the pieces around.
RECIPE: Among the succulent plants used in this fairy garden are:
- Echeveria, various varieties
- Crassula “Princess Pine”
- Crassula “Candy Cane”
- Crassula “Tiger Jade”
- Cotyledon “Happy Young Lady”
- Haworthia “Zebra Plant”
- Sedum “Fine Leaf Gold”
TIPS:
- Select the smallest succulent plants you can find as they will grow considerably. I look for baby plants among my larger succulents.
- The smaller plants require a little more water. Water whenever the soil begins to dry out.
