Succulents are one of the most popular plants that people grow in their offices or homes due to their wide variety of species and fanciful shapes, such as Kalanchoe tomentosa and Senecio peregrinus, which are a delight to behold.
Succulents have fat roots or stems that can store water, making them suitable for growing in dry climates. Although almost all cacti are succulents, not all succulents are cacti.
Because of their exotic and attractive appearance and low maintenance requirements, succulents are often grown as garden plants for people to enjoy. Succulents typically require a lot of sunlight, so it's helpful to rotate their position occasionally to ensure that each part receives sufficient sunlight.
Come and enjoy some eye-catching succulents, such as the following:
1. Monilaria obconica
Native to South Africa, Monilaria obconica is a succulent plant that resembles a soft bunny and is beloved by many succulent enthusiasts. These plants prefer to grow in groups, and their flowers are typically white, with bunny-shaped fruits that contain around 50-500 seeds.
The stems of the plants are very thick, and the leaves are slender and grow opposite each other during the growing season. In the dormant period, the leaves remain relatively short and take on a hemispherical shape, which is very beautiful.
2. Greenovia Dodrentalis
Greenovia Dodrentalis is a succulent plant in the Sedum family, belonging to the genus Lotus Palm. There are many varieties of Greenovia Dodrentalis, with larger ones reaching up to 40 cm and smaller ones only 2-3 cm in size.
When the leaves of the plant are fully expanded, it is in its growth period and needs to be placed in a well-lit area for maintenance. During the dormant period, the leaves of the plant close, adding to its ornamental value.
3. Conophytum Bilobum
Native to South Africa and Namibia, Conophytum Bilobum derives its name from the Latin term for "two ears of leaves." It is a very fleshy plant with flat, heart-shaped, opposite leaves that are 3-4.5 cm long and 2-2.5 cm wide. The central suture at the top is saddle-shaped and 0.7-0.9 cm deep, and the plant has no stems or only short stems.
The leaves are light green to gray-green, with obtusely rounded apexes, and the tip may be finely granular or very smooth to the touch. Older plants are often densely clustered. The flowers mostly bloom in autumn and open at the mid-seam, with mostly yellow petals (other colors are also available in different varieties) that can grow up to 3 cm in diameter.
4. Haworthia cooperi
There are many varieties of Haworthia cooperi succulents, but all have transparent leaves as their signature mark. Some people think they look like crystal rocks, while others say they resemble jelly. This interesting succulent can grow up to 2 inches (about 5 centimeters) tall and outward in a pretty rose shape, making it perfect for those who enjoy growing cute succulents.
