  • This is one of my favorite holiday decor DIY projects - a succulent wreath! While they can be very expensive if purchased from a florist, this is a project that is fairly simple to do with a few crafting supplies and a little time.
    All you need is a simple wreath frame, sphagnum moss, garden wire, clippers and succulents of course!
    This project also doubles as something that could be done at a holiday party or get-together, craft project idea - or even something to make as a beautiful hand-made gift.

      Great! Now is a good time to start growing and propagating succulents to add to the wreath 🪴

    Very pretty. You’ve got a good eye for arranging your plants. Im terrible at identifying succulents. Anything I don’t know what it is I call a “little dude”.
    Let’s get you a new pot little dude.

      Little dude! I love it. I'm really only starting to learn to identify the different types, there are SO many, and don't get me started on hybrids. And thanks! This is a fun one to do every year.

    Nice video, thank you. How do you water this wreath?

    • @FreePlantsForever
      @FreePlantsForever  Před 10 měsíci

      Interestingly... you don't! These plants don't have roots, so no need to water. They will happily last for over a month without roots/water. Once the holidays are over I deconstruct the wreath and plant them in soil. That's when I water it!

      It's true, which is why I've created this channel to help you get lots of succulents for less money. Whether from propagating, sharing, or buying larger arrangements. Hopefully you can find some of my suggestions here to get more plants for free!
