They have the beauty of a bouquet and the hardiness of houseplants.

This type of succulent is great for hanging planters because of its trailing stems that are full of teardrop-shaped leaves. Burro’s Tail succulents require bright light and watering when the soil is dry. They have a lush and trailing habit that gives the illusion of a floral cascade.

This is a beautiful succulent with striped leaves; its compact form is perfect for desktop arrangements or groupings that resemble flower bouquets.
