The crown of thorns plant is a native of Madagascar and other African countries. It thrives in harsh sunlight. The Pencil Plant, a drought-tolerant plant native to Africa, would add intrigue to any desert garden.

Keep your new succulent hydrated until the next spring or summer, when you will want to reproduce more. The succulent should be allowed to soak in the water for 24 hours. However, if possible, a little longer would be best. Two weeks is required to water a newly planted barrel. To water from the bottom, place the plant on a tray or in a shallow dish with water. Allow it to sit for about 2 or 3 inches. You can use it as a side dish, or to add to salsas and tacos. Young pads should be approximately four- to eight inches in length for the Mexican dish Nopales.

We can't wait to see all of the beautiful succulent arrangements you create in your fabulous faux marble planters. Legend says that the Aztecs rushed to the lake's swampy shore to see the amazing sight for themselves. Place this leaf on top of the soil and mist daily until you start to see a new plant forming and the parent leaf begins to dry out. For around 200 years, the Aztecs were pushed from one place to the next, never being welcomed, and always on the move. Finally, you can plant your cuttings directly in well-draining earth.
