Enhance your outdoor area, entertainment area, patio, wedding, or event with a succulent ball. It will thrive with a bit of TLC and watering, ensuring it stays alive.


Materials: Wire sphere (or 2 half wire baskets tied together), succulent cuttings, cable ties, floral foam/oasis.



Instructions


-            Fill the wire sphere with soaked oasis (cut into smaller blocks for easy filling).

-            Insert succulent cuttings into the sphere.

-            Hang the succulent ball in a shaded area.

-            Water thoroughly as needed, more frequently during hot weather.

 





EXTRA TIPS


-            Cut succulent stems as long as possible; remove old growth and leaves.

-            Soak succulents in water while building to clean and hydrate them.

-            Insert larger plants first, then add smaller succulents and fillers.

-            Use a pencil to make guide holes in your oases.

-            It is advisable to hang the succulent ball in an open space during the planting process to facilitate easier manoeuvring.

-            Replant unused cuttings for future projects.
