Buddha's Temple - Flowers |
|
Crassula Buddha's Temple |
Let’s start with my favorite Crassula Buddha’s Temple Succulent plant. Its unique and interesting shape attracts everyone to have at least one in their collection. It grows in folds and raises up to 6-7 inches tall. You can have so many of its branches from all of its sides. It has thin leaves that appear in silvery-green or grayish-green. The most amazing combination is its flower bunch that blooms in white, red and orange colors.
Like any other succulent Buddha’s Temple, the succulent is easy to manage with less care, but they are vulnerable to some bugs and few fungal diseases. So, avoid overwatering and propagate it with new leaves or sprouts. Succulents are easy to re-pot when required.
MOTHER OF MILLIONS

Mother of Millions |
Well, Mother of Millions is another unique and interesting succulent plant that needs best drainage soil to grow. You are suggested to use a commercial soil mix for succulent and cactus. If it is not available then you may add the good quantity of sand in the regular potting soil. This will also help to grow.
It is a beautiful succulent but toxic also, that is harmful if ingested by domestic animals and pets. It is also harmful to humans and it is highly recommended to take all the precautionary measures when taking care of it or repotting it.

ALOE VERA
|
ALOW VERA has many qualities, it is used in herbal medicines and beauty products. Its gel is edible but with a bitter taste that is difficult to swallow. But there are choices to use it, you may cut it into small pieces and wrap with milk powder. It can make it easy to avoid the bitterness and odor. Aloe Vera is a most common succulent that we can find everywhere. Like any other succulent it also requires not much care but if you are growing for commercial purpose then you are supposed to care for its fertilizer and pesticides.
