Sensational Succulents

September 17, 2015 By Karen Creel

There’s one thing about succulents you may not know.  THEY ARE ADDICTIVE!  If you follow my blog, you may have noticed I LOVE succulents. Pair that with my love of junk containers and you can see why I use them often.  I have planted them in wagons, rusty buckets, and even troll dolls!

  I  sell my planted containers at The Master Gardeners annual Lawn and Garden show and they are a big hit.  Others have found their place at a local garden shop that showcases local goods.

Jacki Cammidge of Drought Smart plants says the addiction to succulents starts out innocently enough.

 All of this “succulent love” got me started thinking.  I have been wanting to supplement my income and start a part time business, take more plants to the garden show, and to the garden shop.  Why not succulents?  I haven’t seen any being sold there.  Why not offer them in my etsy shop?  I had considered this before but I didn’t know how to ship them.

Jacki has all of this answered and more.  She’s created an E-course to help you start your own succulent business. All the information you will ever need is included in this course.  Growing, shipping plants, ideas to promote your succulent business, are all offered as well as a lot more valuable tips.

Be the “go to person” in your town to learn more about succulents. Speak to garden clubs, write an article for your local newspaper or magazine, or offer your service to plant succulents gardens for the public and local businesses.

A Quick Note…

Gardenchick is a place for gardeners, flea market fanatics, lovers of the farmhouse look, and purveyors of all things rusty!

I’m not sure when my fascination with junk began, but gardening was in my blood from an early age.  I remember my grandmother could throw a few seeds out and have the prettiest flowers.  Sweet peas were rampant beside the front porch.  I can see her now, bent over pulling weeds, and I find myself doing the same thing anytime I’m in the yard.  My dad was raised on a large farm, and even though he moved away, and we always lived in the city, he had a garden.  He had me help him  plant a garden in May before he died in August.  So you can see, gardening just comes naturally to me.

I can’t explain the love of rusty and all things chippy, but I have dug through more barns and sheds than I would like to admit to bring out a rusty wagon or old chicken feeder.

So, I hope you will follow along, and we can learn a few things together.  I’ll be sharing gardening ideas, my flea market finds, and thrifty ways to repurpose.
