Diy: Succulents In A Bowl
Diy Succulents In A Bowl
"You can do a lot of fun things with bowls. Inside, but of course also outside. These beautiful objects, from large to small, bring your interior and garden to life! A bowl of different materials and structures is completely contemporary. A bowl with a mix of succulents, a mini glass pond with floating flowers: you can come up with anything. We are happy to help you on your way and show you what you can do with bowls."

Instructions
-
First you take the bowl. Put a plastic bag in here, and pour in expanded clay (about 1/3 of the bowl).
-
Fill the rest of the bowl with the cactus potting soil. Next, stick the large log into the ground, just a little bit away from the center. Get cactus soil here: https://succulentalley.com/best-soil-for-succulents-in-pots/
-
Remove the succulents from the plastic pots and put them in the ground. Just press firmly: make sure the plants are well in the soil. Look carefully where you place what, everything must be connected. Get succulents here: https://succulentalley.com/best-place-to-buy-succulents-online/
-
Take the lying log into account. This one must have the space. Place it on the chosen spot. Press it a little longer so that it is firmly in the sand.
-
Cut off the protruding piece of plastic. Cut along the edge of the bowl, folding the remaining inch of plastic inward.
-
Cover the plastic and cactus soil with a combination of sand and glass stones. Avoid seeing the plastic and potting soil.
-
Is there sand on your plants? Brush it off carefully with a brush, for example.
-
Finally, add the Tillandsia for the finishing touch.
