Succulent gardening involves cultivating plants that store water in their leaves, stems, or roots, making them ideal for dry environments. These plants come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, and are known for their low maintenance needs. Popular types include aloe vera, sedum, and echeveria, which thrive in well-draining soil and require minimal watering. To start a succulent garden, choose a sunny location and use a pot with drainage holes to prevent overwatering. Succulents can be planted individually or in arrangements, allowing for creative displays. Regularly check for pests and ensure they receive adequate sunlight for optimal growth.
