These saps and water-storing stems enable them to stay alive and healthy even long after being ignored.

They grow very slowly, they take at least 18 months to get ready for sale.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#succulove- India\u2019s Love for Succulents<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you look for or follow nature centric themes online, you might have come across this trending hashtag. It is popular across many social media channels with Instagram boasting of around 1.4 million posts on them! Though succulents are born in tropics, subtropics, dry mountainous regions and semi-deserts in Africa and South and Central America, they have found a fan following all over the world. India\u2019s love for succulents can be seen from the rise in a number of gardens that grow these natural beauties to online shops that sell these nature&#8217;s gifts in well-designed ceramic pots. Owing to the growing air pollution mainly in the Indian cities, these small but powerful plants are also being loved by people due to their air-purifying properties.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top_5-_Interesting_Facts_about_Succulents\"><\/span><strong>Top 5- Interesting Facts about Succulents<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/interflora\/f_auto,q_auto,t_blogimage\/blogs\/Succulent Colours1560317369793.jpg\" alt=\"Succulent Colours\" data-cke-saved-src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/interflora\/f_auto,q_auto,t_blogimage\/blogs\/Succulent Colours1560317369793.jpg\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The Latin word \u2018sucus\u2019,\u00a0meaning juice or sap gave succulents their name.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; They are very colourful and beautiful to look at.

It is also called a Chinese rubber plant because of its resemblance to one. It is considered lucky in many parts of the world. Jade is the most difficult to bloom. It requires proper conditions (dry climate, cooler night time environment, maturity, etc.) to start flowering. So when a jade plant flowers, it is considered a symbol of friendship as it shows that you have taken great care of it. Just like when you take care of someone, the relationship blossoms! Jade plants are also popular bonsai plants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Adenium\/Desert Rose<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/interflora\/f_auto,q_auto,t_blogimage\/blogs\/Adenium1559895718848.jpg\" alt=\"Pink Adenium Plant\" data-cke-saved-src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/interflora\/f_auto,q_auto,t_blogimage\/blogs\/Adenium1559895718848.jpg\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The common name of Adenium is Desert Rose. Though why is it referred by this name is still a mystery because the flowers look nothing like a rose. This one is also another most loved bonsai plant. But this plant is not recommended for a house with pets as it contains cardiac glycosides, a toxic that was once used in arrows in Africa for hunting games. Since it is little large in size, it is perfect to be kept in the balcony or window side.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Echeveria<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/interflora\/f_auto,q_auto,t_blogimage\/blogs\/Echeveria1559895718916.jpg\" alt=\"Echeveria Flower\" data-cke-saved-src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/interflora\/f_auto,q_auto,t_blogimage\/blogs\/Echeveria1559895718916.jpg\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s impossible to look at this plant and not fall in love with it! It is a large open petalled succulent that comes in the most interesting mixture of shades. Most of the times you will find common combinations of greyish-green, green-blue colour with a tinge of lilac on its tips. These plants have a lovely rosette shape and burst with yellow, orange, pink or red flowers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Agave<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/interflora\/f_auto,q_auto,t_blogimage\/blogs\/Agave1559895718902.jpg\" alt=\"Agave Flower\" data-cke-saved-src=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/interflora\/f_auto,q_auto,t_blogimage\/blogs\/Agave1559895718902.jpg\" \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Agave carries the look of prehistoric times, which gives a rustic vintage look to any setup.

Cactus soil helps the plants absorb water and nutrients. It also dries out quickly meaning it won\u2019t rot the roots.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; They require very less amount of water. Generally, you need to water them once a week in less quantity.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Water the soil directly.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Choose a pot with a hole for easy drainage<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Give them plant food once a month.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Clean the dust from the plants regularly to promote healthy growth.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Though their look might prompt you to touch\u00a0them, it is advisable to not do that. Succulents develop a powder-like substance on their leaves during periods of growth. If you touch them, you deprive them of that substance and also leave them scrapped.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_These_Succulents_are_a_Must-Have\"><\/span><strong>Why These Succulents are a Must-Have<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Succulents are the best plants to have when you are too busy to look after them.
