Choosing the Right Bottle1. Material: Glass, ceramic, and plastic bottles are all suitable materials for growing succulents. Glass bottles have high transparency and are easy to observe; ceramic bottles have good breathability; plastic bottles are lightweight and inexpensive.

3. Ventilation: Maintaining good ventilation is beneficial to the growth and health of succulent plants.
Placing succulents in bottles can save space and enhance the beauty of the home. By reasonably choosing bottles, succulents, and maintenance skills, we can create a green and vibrant corner in the home, following this new trend of creative maintenance to inject more vitality and vitality into life.
