Many friends are growing these 13 succulents. Some of them are especially expensive, but to be honest, they are also very beautiful. You can compare them and see which ones you have and which ones you don't; you can also see which ones you're growing in good condition and which ones are in poor condition. As for those expensive ones, first look at your growing skills, then look at your wallet. First get the ordinary ones looking good before anything else, otherwise, even if you buy the expensive ones, it's a waste.

1. Laura

Laura is also called Graptopetalum paraguayense 'Congealed Fat Lotus'. The stems are thick, it branches easily into clusters, and it readily forms old stems. The leaves are mostly powder green or powder blue. When it colors up, the thick fleshy leaves are packed tightly together, and the leaf color takes on a pinkish or yellowish tone with a jelly-like, congealed-fat feel. The leaf tips have especially striking red dots, very charming. "In several flower streets new brocade is won, someone on the fragrant path lightly congeals fat." Laura is not only beautiful, but also has a faint, fresh fruity fragrance.

2. Ivory

Ivory has another very classy name: Yuzhu Dongyun. Ivory grows rather slowly and easily pups into clusters. Ivory's leaf surface has a waxy quality, so its leaves are very smooth. The whole plant is light green; when it colors up, the leaves take on a slight orange-yellow, and when in good condition the leaves develop a jelly color with red leaf tips. Ivory sunburns easily, so shade it in summer. Another characteristic of Ivory is that it is like ivory itself - expensive.

3. Lovely Rose

Lovely Rose, the name has a somewhat playful ring to it. Lovely Rose has the typical shape of a rose. The leaves are green, and when it colors up the leaf color becomes slightly gray-blue or gray-white. It may be the only rose-series succulent that doesn't turn red, but it is the cutest. Lovely Rose grows quickly, forms stems easily, and branches easily. Lovely Rose is a variety that became popular in the last two or three years. At first a small plant cost close to a hundred or even several hundred yuan, but later, because leaf propagation is easy and it grows quickly, it soon became a cheap, common variety. It can be said to be the succulent whose price dropped the fastest.

4. Honey Peach

Information about Honey Peach is quite controversial. Some people think Honey Peach is just a colored-up Momotaro or Chihuahua, while others believe Honey Peach is a hybrid of Momotaro. Honey Peach's leaves are plump and fleshy, yellow-green in color, with leaf tips. When it colors up, the leaf color turns the pink of a honey peach and the leaf tips turn deep red, resembling a honey peach in both form and spirit, which is also the origin of the name Honey Peach. When watering Honey Peach, be careful never to water into the center of the rosette.

5. Haworthia cooperi

Haworthia cooperi is small and exquisite, with a great many varieties. Its leaves are crystal clear and full of variation, like living works of art, very cute. Although there are many varieties of Haworthia cooperi and their prices vary greatly, Xiaojingzhi Lifestyle feels that any Haworthia cooperi is beautiful, pleasant to look at, and never tiresome. Compared with other succulents, Haworthia cooperi seems to like moisture more. Besides watering thoroughly as usual, give it a spray with a small spray bottle and its crystal-clear leaves immediately stand out, making it truly the emerald among succulents.

6. Haworthia maughanii

The price of Haworthia maughanii is just like its name - all-encompassing. The expensive ones can cost several million, while the cheap ones can be had for a few dozen yuan. Haworthia maughanii grows extremely slowly, producing only two or three leaves a year, and at most only a dozen or so seeds. Leaf propagation and root propagation are equally slow, and it's hard to say how long it takes for side shoots to appear. The market value of Haworthia maughanii is determined by aesthetics. Generally speaking, the more beautiful the patterns, the larger the window surface and the larger the plant form, and the shorter the leaves, the higher the price.

7. Peach Egg

Peach Egg probably needs no introduction. Friends who grow succulents should all know this name, and many friends were probably drawn into the succulent hobby by this adorable thing. Peach Egg easily forms old stems, and when it colors up its round, chubby color is soft pink. "Silly-cute" is the dedicated adjective for Peach Egg.

8. Damo Fujiang

Damo Fujiang's stems are very thin, and when they grow long they droop or creep along the ground. The leaves are light green or tender yellow, and when it colors up the leaf tips turn red. Moreover, when watering Damo Fujiang there is a distinct sweet scent of lemon oil. Mm, a fragrant and sweet beautiful Fujiang.

9. Lily Pad

Lily + jasmine. Lily Pad very easily forms multi-headed old stems. When it colors up, the leaves turn pink-orange-green, and the fragrance is very noticeable. It is especially suitable for making bouquets.

10. Grape

Grape starts out with an inconspicuous grayish color. After growing it for a while, it slowly turns red. When it colors up, the leaf color is gorgeous, the leaves are thick and round, and the plant form is compact - a typical Cinderella series.

11. Echeveria derenbergii

Echeveria derenbergii is an Echeveria with a very small head that easily forms clusters. When there is plenty of light, the leaf tips color up and turn red, very cute. Mentioning Echeveria derenbergii, one can't help but think of the animated image below - docile and gentle.

12. Bear's Paw

Nicknamed Bear Cub. When it colors up, the leaf edges turn red and fuzzy, like a baby bear with red-painted nails, cute enough to make you drool all over the floor. Bear's Paw is hard to root from leaf propagation. If a leaf is taken with a bit of stem attached, doing a disguised stem cutting makes it very easy to root.

13. Kalanchoe thyrsiflora

Kalanchoe thyrsiflora has an elegant, antique air. It is relatively shade-tolerant; even in a long-term bright, indirect light environment it can grow healthily, but it will stay green the whole time. Under sufficient light it turns a red of extraordinary bearing, and it is also a typical example of an ugly duckling turning into a swan.

There are tens of thousands of succulent varieties, and everyone's preferences differ. Xiaojingzhi Lifestyle has limited ability and energy, so there are far too many lovely succulents not written about here. I hope everyone will add to the list!
