Learn How to Make a Succulent Wreath
I was overjoyed to have authors John Gillespie & Christina Symons of the fabulous garden craft book, Everyday Eden: 100+ Fun, Green Garden Projects for the Whole Family to Enjoy (Harbour Publishing) on the blog. They shared how to make this stunning succulent wreath. I know you will head out to the improvement store to make your own after you see this. For full post information see http://gardentherapy.ca/semper-viva-wreath/ you can also enter to win a copy of the book, Everyday Eden!
A lush living wreath is easy to make and can be placed in the garden or use it as a table centrepiece for special occasions.
To make this beautiful wreath you will need a wreath form with a liner, potting soil, a knife, sand and a selection of succulents.
After you fill the wreath form with sand and potting soil, you will reassemble the wreath form and make holes with a knife where the plants will go. For full instructions and a complete listing of succulents used visit the blog.
You can grow your living wreath for many seasons or simply replant the succulents back in your garden when you are done.

Allisonon Jun 3, 2015I am new to the succulent world and living in Iowa doesn't make it any easier. Could you please give me some advise on where to buy large orders for succulents at a decent price. I would love to make the succulent wreath and not break the bank Allison myers. Thanks

Patty Morganon Apr 27, 2019That is what I was thinking as well. I really love this project but, it would cost over 50.00 or more just for the plants.
