Live succulents are loved for their beauty and low-maintenance nature. Follow these simple tips to keep your succulent planter happy and healthy:

Light

• Bright, indirect sunlight is ideal.
• Place near a sunny window where your succulents can get at least 4–6 hours of light daily.
• If indoors with low natural light, consider using a grow light for extra support.

Watering

• Succulents prefer to dry out completely between waterings.
• Water about every 2–3 weeks, depending on light, humidity, and temperature.
• How to check: Stick your finger into the soil about an inch—if it feels dry, it's time to water.
• Pour water slowly at the base of the plants, avoiding the leaves.
• Never let the soil stay soggy—succulents are sensitive to overwatering.

Temperature & Environment

• Ideal indoor temperature: 65–80°F (18–27°C)
• Keep away from cold drafts, heating vents, or AC units.
• Avoid placing in bathrooms or other humid areas—succulents thrive in dry air.

General Tips

• Remove any dead leaves or dried petals to keep your arrangement looking fresh.
• If a succulent outgrows the planter, gently re-pot into a slightly larger container.
• Fertilize lightly during spring and summer (optional)—once a month with a diluted cactus fertilizer.

Common Issues to Avoid

• Overwatering is the most common issue—when in doubt, wait it out.
• Stretched or leggy growth means the plant needs more light.
• Mushy leaves usually indicate too much water; wrinkled leaves mean it's too dry.
