Teacup succulents
I don't have a green thumb so I love succulents because they are beautiful and easy to grow. I have been inspired by the creative ways to display them and decided to use some teacups as plant holders. Here are some photos from yesterday.
(Aeonium lara in a teacup bought from Typo store. The teacup comes with a fake succulent but I prefer a real one)
(I bought this from an op-shop in my neighborhood for 3 dollars. There was no price tag on it and the woman at the register couldn't contact the seller so she said 3 dollars. I think it was a good deal considering how big it is)
(This cup is one of my favourites. I bought it at the pottery expo in Warrandyte last year because I love the drawing of the girl reading. It is such a relaxing scene. I planted some of my 'jelly bean' succulents, or Sedum rubrotinctum, in it. )
Such rewarding plants, though small.
@nin0000, yes I agree with you that they are very rewarding!
We call them Thunderplants in Belgium, they grow good on roofs, they are somewhat linked with Donar, the thundergod.
Well people put them on the roofs, like grass etc, to protect against fires and lightning.
