Hello my friends! Allow me today to introduce you to my collection of succulents and cacti! To be honest, it's not particularly big since only a few months have passed since the first pot of succulents. More specifically close to 18 months! It started in the first lockdown! Since then I have bought, enjoyed and looted (I'm ashamed, but I did) quite a few succulents! I managed to take care of some of them properly, but they used to rot from too much watering and I gave them away since I found the easy way to multiply them!
My love for succulents is due to their very few requirements! These magical creatures have almost zero watering requirements and perhaps their most important prerequisite for a successful planting or conservation is the potting soil and its exposure to the sun
The impressive thing about succulents is their huge number! Once you start this crazy habit of collecting all the different types of succulents, you'll realize how hard it is to get them all! I personally go crazy to see big collections from some Youtubers! I envy them until my eyes turn green and I immediately go to some online store to order a succulent that I don't have or has caught my attention!
Here my only, but so beloved cactus a Echinopsis peruviana
Of course, I have entered the process of entering their care forums, but I have been looking for a book as a care guide for all species. At work (organizing receptions) I often collaborate with florists where I use their knowledge and their stock of succulents. Of course I've already checked all the neighbors' balconies to ask them for clones of any succulents they have
Of course, I wish I had stayed there and not vandalized any pots in a public space! Before you condemn me, I must confess that I was not fully aware of my actions and that simply these plants have magical properties on me! Haha! Not to lie to you, I have done it several times, but I try to cut only the smallest possible part of the original plant, without for God's sake spoiling its shape or its beauty!
And here we are in the place where I will transfer the new cuttings! Here, with the help and knowledge of a very good friend, I have made this "child's play" of miniature succulents! I love them and take special care of them! I have to admit, I check them multiple times a day. No point, just fooling around...haha!
This was my collection! I hope you liked it! From me and this little thing who is struggling to take root, we send you our kisses and our positive energy

Oh my god I totally fell in loooveeee!! You have such a good hand for this, all my succulents are weird shaped or shorn hahaha. I really love the contrast of colours and shapes unique of each variety... I wish I had more like those red and purple coloured!! Keep doing what you do!!
Ps. : I also have gone trough that dilemma of taking a cutting of some plant without asking it hahaha I understand!
I a specialist in stealing cuttings! Thanks sweet Estefania! Big hug!
You made me feed my eyes with wonderful collections of succulents 😍😍😍I love them.
I believe this would be hard taking care and nurturing them so they don't rot.
Not particularly big? I would call it a huge collection already! !PIZZA
