How do you grow succulents into a full, overflowing pot? Just start with these 5 varieties

Speaking of succulents, I have a friend who is especially good at caring for them. The balcony at home is simply packed with them, and since succulents take up little space, many people are willing to grow them, especially with Scandinavian-style decor, they match perfectly. Watching the succulents you raised with your own hands gradually overflow their pots is truly a super happy thing. If you want the succulents you plant to overflow their pots, the most important thing is to choose the right varieties. Today let's go through which succulent varieties are the easiest to overflow their pots!

1. Graptopetalum paraguayense 'Bronze'

The name Graptopetalum paraguayense 'Bronze' feels very dreamy. For cuttings, we usually borrow a leaf from a fellow grower, and that's exactly what I did. As long as you're thick-skinned, you can borrow any succulent, and that's my highest level of succulent cutting. The success rate is almost 100%, so many beginners choose it to grow.

2. Orostachys boehmeri

For Orostachys boehmeri cuttings, we can also borrow a piece from a friend and bring it back to plant as a cutting. When taking cuttings, it's best to choose some thick, sturdy young plants, as this makes success easier. A single leaf can also propagate. When the leaf grows bigger, if it falls into the soil in the pot and there is enough moisture, it can also take root and sprout into a new succulent.

3. Sedum dasyphyllum

Sedum dasyphyllum is a little expert at overflowing its pot, so even beginners can get it to overflow without any trouble. But you need to pay attention to its growing environment: it needs warmth and dryness, and especially plenty of sunlight, which makes the effect particularly obvious. If the summer heat and light are too strong, you need to use black shade cloth to block some of it, but do not shade it for too long, because if it goes on too long, the stems and leaves will become tender and it will easily topple.

4. Sempervivum tectorum

The Sempervivum tectorum plant has a very beautiful appearance. Its leaves are wide and thick, with a gleaming metallic luster on top; there are also beautiful patterns on the leaf veins, giving it a very poetic and picturesque feel. It is a uniquely styled ornamental succulent. The main thing to make Sempervivum tectorum overflow its pot is that the light must not be too strong.

5. Plectranthus amboinicus

Plectranthus amboinicus is likewise a little succulent that overflows its pot very easily, and this succulent also gives off an inviting fragrance. We just need to gently touch it. It can be grown through cuttings, and you can use a slightly larger flower pot. Plenty of sunlight can make the leaves more translucent and emerald green, and the leaves will also be firmer. In winter, we need to care for it indoors.

Succulent plants are loved by many white-collar workers, mainly because they are easy to care for, and secondly because they look cute, are not prone to pests, and are very suitable for placing on an office desk. So friends who like succulents should not miss these pots. What other succulents easily overflow their pots? Succulent fans who have grown them, don't be stingy and share them with us.
