Perfectly Succulent


Outdoor weddings and festivities are in full swing, especially in Arizona where the temperature is finally comfortable enough to sit outside without a jacket or breaking a sweat. Perfect! Anyways, I found this great idea over at Project Wedding's blog that uses succulents as party favors. What a lovely combination of greens, and I love the way the kraft paper, tags and twine stay true to the rustic and organic feel of the plant.

Succulents are probably one of my favorite desert plant. They come in so many forms, and I like how sometimes they look so perfect that you think it might be fake. Succulent: you little trickster. :) I was actually thinking a couple of weeks ago about getting one for my home at the Desert Botanical Garden Bi-Annual Plant Sale. Liven up my personal space just a bit, you know? If you live in Arizona, the sale is going on March 18-20. Perhaps you can find a little desert plant to brighten up your space too.

  2. I love succulents, but for some reason, don't own any. It's is strange that they intimidate me? I don't know why!
