"Chubby" succulents have always been favored by plant lovers, and in recent years they have practically swept the gardening world. Succulents with their own "fresh and artsy" vibe, keeping a few pots at home can not only bring us visual enjoyment, but also bring us olfactory intoxication.

Why do we say that? That's because some succulents are not only highly attractive but also carry a certain fragrance. Truly, while others admire their succulents, I get to smell mine. So, next let me introduce 5 succulents that come with their own fragrance, not only beautiful but also very pleasant to smell. Don't miss out!

Ornithogalum fragrans

[Ornithogalum fragrans] Ornithogalum fragrans is not a "beauty" in the traditional sense; it looks plain, even a bit ugly! But its flowering characteristic is that it opens at night and closes during the day. It is one of the few succulents whose flowers carry a fragrance. The floral scent is a kind of fresh, non-cloying fragrance, very pleasant to smell. Two or three flowers are enough to fill the entire balcony with fragrance. It's also a great choice!

During the care of Ornithogalum fragrans, watering should not be excessive during the growing season. Spray water frequently to control watering, and just keep the potting soil slightly moist. In particular, you need to master the aspects of water control, ventilation, shading, and stopping fertilizer during the summer dormancy period.

Ice Berry

[Ice Berry] Ice Berry belongs to the Moon Shadow series of succulents, with a sweet aroma similar to vanilla ice cream. When it reaches its prime condition, it becomes tight, wrapped, and lovely, with tender pink and changeable colors. It can handle jelly green, ice orange, pink, and more. You can admire it and smell it too, making it very worth growing at home!

When caring for Ice Berry, watering should not be too frequent. Watering once or twice a month is enough. During the growing season, also appropriately control the amount of watering. Always water thoroughly only after the soil has dried, and do not keep it too wet. In addition, when watering, be sure to avoid getting water on the plant as much as possible. Water droplets will form unsightly marks, and keep the center of the plant free of standing water to prevent rot. Special attention is needed!

Lily Lily

[Lily Lily] Lily Lily belongs to the Aeonium genus of succulents. Its leaves are thick and round-spoon-shaped, with inconspicuous leaf tips, arranged tightly in a lotus shape. Depending on the growing environment, the leaf color ranges from green to pink-orange-green, and its leaves have a noticeable fragrance.

When caring for Lily Lily, during the spring and autumn growing seasons, it can be watered thoroughly. When the potting soil is about 70 to 80 percent dry, you can water it thoroughly. Avoid letting it stay dry for long periods. During the rainy season, avoid prolonged rain exposure to prevent water accumulation and leaf rot. At the same time, during the spring and autumn growing seasons, try to provide sufficient light.

With sufficient light, its leaves will become more wrapped, more compact and thicker, and the color will show a fascinating orange-pink-green. If the light is insufficient, the leaves will spread out more, the leaf color will turn green, and it will look like a plain vegetable. Then it becomes an "ugly succulent"!

Lauru

[Lauru] Lauru does not have a fragrance at all times. If cared for improperly, it will turn green and become leggy, and then it will have no fragrance. In addition, Lauru's fragrance is relatively light. It becomes more fragrant with more sun exposure and more water control. So if conditions allow, it is best to give it more sunlight.

When caring for Lauru, Lauru likes a warm, ventilated environment. During care, place it on a balcony with ample light, but avoid harsh sun exposure. For watering, pay attention to "do not water if not dry, water thoroughly when watering," avoid water accumulation and root rot, and once every 2 weeks is appropriate. When the weather is colder, Lauru should be moved indoors to avoid frost damage.

Blue Bean

[Blue Bean] Blue Bean belongs to the mini succulents. Its leaves are small and look very cute! When it reaches its prime condition, its leaf color can show a slight pink or slight orange. It is just so beautiful! In addition, Blue Bean also carries a certain fragrance, and the more sun it gets, the more fragrant it becomes. It is a very good choice!

When caring for Blue Bean, follow the principle of "do not water if not dry, water thoroughly when watering" to avoid water accumulation in the potting soil, otherwise root rot will occur. When the air is dry, you can sprinkle water around the plant, but the leaf surface, especially the center of the leaf rosette, should not have standing water, otherwise it will cause heart rot. In particular, be careful to avoid prolonged rain exposure.
