My predictions for succulents, gardens and design will help to keep you up-to-date and even make some money off the plants you love. Although it can reach 33 feet in height, it will still be small if placed into a small pot. When filled, the surface of the soil should be about 1 - 1 1/2 inch below the top of the pot. They also prevent your pot from staining surfaces underneath them. This simple, modern pot would look fantastic draped with the long, flowing stems and trailing succulents. If they are allowed to live in the right environment, they can last for more than 200years.
