Greening Up Indoors: Succulents Are Here!
At Sunnyside Gardens, we take all kinds of gardening seriously. It’s no surprise that our first arrivals of the season are some of our favorites—succulents! If it’s still too cold to dig outdoors, we can still bring the green inside, right?
With the sun climbing higher and daylight hours growing longer, it’s the perfect time to nurture houseplants. Trendy desert plants like cacti and succulents thrive in a sunny windowsill. For best care, we recommend watering these hardy plants only on sunny days and only when the soil is completely dry.
Our oldest and dearest greenhouse, lovingly called #1, is now clean, heated, and filling up fast with an incredible selection of succulents!
Tips for Growing Healthy Succulents
To set your succulents up for success, you’ll need:
- A Container with Drainage
Proper drainage prevents overwatering and ensures healthy roots. - Sandy, Well-Drained Potting Mix
Opt for a cactus-specific mix to mimic their natural environment. - A Sunny Spot and Warm Temperatures
Succulents thrive in bright light and temperatures above 55°F. - Fertilizer Every 8-10 Weeks
Skip fertilizing during winter when growth slows. We recommend Scotts Liquid Cactus Fertilizer for the best results.
