Maintenance of Living Pictures
Succulents are forgiving. Their maintenance is minimal. Just follow the steps below and your living frame will love you for it!
- Normal watering of your succulents approx once every 2 weeks dependent on conditions. Don't be scared to water them... the idea is just not to overwater them, they don't like to be too wet!
- Take the frame down and lay on a flat surface. Water normally using a small watering can approx 300ml. Ensure that water has soaked in before you hang the picture again - approx 45 minutes.
- Position - Succulents love to be in a sunny, sheltered position, however they don't want blazing sun all day as this will scorch them. They can withstand low temperatures, but won't fair well with too much wind or rain. Protect over winter.
- Love your succulents and they will love you back! Enjoy!
Love succulents and enjoy!
