Wow, one of the most realistic faux succulent plants we’ve ever sourced, we love our large succulent echeveria with subtle blue and green colors and peachy tips. Our echeveria is large. Plan your planter or pot accordingly. Stiff stems are not shapeable, but you can use it narrow or spread out. 9-inches wide with a 5-inch stem. Can be used outdoors under a covered patio or porch. Keep out of direct sun.
FAQs, cleaning and designing with artificial succulents:
- Most faux plants like our extra large succulent echeveria are made with combinations of plastic, polyester and wire
- Occasionally dust your arrangements with a feather duster. You can wash your faux succulents and cacti under running water, held upside down. Do not submerge in water.
- The base stems are often short and sturdy
- You’ll want to anchor your succulent plants in dry floral foam. For example, the brand name Sahara made by Oasis. Dry floral foam does not hold water and offers a sturdy base to hold your plants
- You may hot glue your floral foam to your container interior, although if you’re not mailing or moving your arrangement, it’s not necessary
- Cover your floral foam with dry moss, pebbles or decorative sand
- Now the fun starts. Insert as many faux succulents into your container as will fit
- Be creative. Feel free to cut, trim and divide your faux succulents into smaller parts. Sturdy wire cutters will work
- Think about this simple design rule for arrangements: Use one thriller (the focal point succulent), one spiller (something that drapes over the side) and one upright succulent. Spiky succulents are popular.
- Enjoy!
