TIP OF THE DAY
Are You Drowning Your Succulents in Love?
Succulents are the independent types—they don’t need constant attention. Water them once every two weeks, and they’ll thrive. If you’re unsure, err on the side of less water. Remember, these plants are desert dwellers at heart. They love a little neglect! Keep them in a sunny spot, and they’ll reward you with their stunning resilience. | ![]() |
