Product Description
Currently the must-have plants for indoor gardeners, you can't escape the rise of succulent gardening! With our collection of 6 tried and tested plants, this is your opportunity to join in and grow these fun, easy plants!
Perfect as a gift for those new to gardening who want to grow something, or as a way to introduce children to the wonderful world of plants, this collection of succulent plants is very forgiving and will tolerate more than the occasional bout of neglect.
Succulents have evolved to survive with very little water, storing what they do get in their fleshy leaves, so are perfectly adapted to modern home living and are almost fuss-free!
Needing very little in the way of care, these succulent plants are the ideal houseplant for anyone whether they're experts or complete novices.
Happy in a sandy compost, with plenty of light and a little water now and again, your succulent collection will thrive. Remember also that these are indoor varieties and will not tolerate the cold.
If you're short on time but still want plants around you (after all, they do help clean the air in your home), then this is your solution! Slow-growing, they are the perfect for home decoration, especially when placed in a pretty pot on a bright windowsill.
Like cacti, they're ideal to get kids interested in gardening with their spiky shapes, just remember that they can be a bit sharp, so take care when handling them.
Supplied as a collection of 6 mixed plants* in 5.5cm pots, ready to go on a windowsill near you now!

Plant Information
Top Tips
Use unglazed terracotta pots to display your succulents at their best. Not only decorative, they will lose moisture through the sides, helping to prevent to roots sitting in damp soil.
Care Guide
- Always use specialist cactus compost when potting. This is sandier and grittier than ordinary compost which helps keep the plants dry.
- Keep plants frost free - although some will tolerate low temperature, in general they need to be kept above 8-10C, so make ideal houseplants.
- While succulents can survive on very little water, they will not thrive. From April to September, water weekly, allowing the compost to soak up water and drain freely. Feed with a general-purpose feed at 1/4 strength once a fortnight.
- From October to March, water only when the compost has dried and then only enough to stop plants shrivelling.
- Keep your plants in bright, but not direct sunlight - an east or west facing windowsill is ideal.
- Dust can build up over time, so keep a soft paintbrush handy to remove it as necessary.

Well my package arrived damaged and only for the fact that my purchase was a promotional offer, I accepted it. No doubt after repotting the damaged little plants, 2 of them, they will survive, I'm not sure I would commit to buying anything expensive or substantial from this company. I did advise them.

Loved the high quality and size of the plants. The only thing that let them down was a lack of identification of the selection I received. I could identify a couple, but wouldn't it be an idea to provide a general list of all the plants available, and I could look them up myself at home?
Product:
Loved the plants; good size and condition, all varied no two the same. Thanks.

I am sure the plants were in good condition when they were placed in the plastic shipping containers however the person who packed the cardboard box for shipping forgot to fill the box with something like bubble wrap to ensure that the products would not bounce around during the delivery process. The plastic cases in whiich the plants were held opened up in transit and some of the plants were damaged and two of them even fell out of the pots. I have to admit I did not report the issue because the order was a special offer free plants but higher postage charge. The courier company were not to blame and the box delivered was in pristine condition.
