One of my all time favorite plants are Succulents...They are so easy to grow and fun to stick in any little container...Limited only by your imagination!!
Earlier this spring I broke my very favorite coffee mug or maybe I should call it my favorite garden mug...It was the perfect size for a big cup of Joe while happily weeding in the wee morning hours...even the colors were perfect...so cheery and gardeny...sigh :(
Anyway I just couldn't throw it out, so after gluing it back together I filled it full of dirt and planted this cool succulent in it, Doesn't it look like steam coming off the coffee? Now it's back in the garden with me. :)
Is this the sweetest little planter you have ever seen? I got her a a garage sale for only $4.00. I simply dropped an air plant in her and Ta-Da she was done. These are probably the only plants that are easier than Sedums!!! I even had two plants bloom for me this year. :)
Don't ask me why but I just have a thing for old colanders...Thank goodness they make good planters!!
Usually I plant several different varieties and then add some stones, shells and or sea glass for just a little more interest...
Here's 3 finishes planters on my outdoor table..
The "Sea Urchins" also came from a garage sale..somone's dad made them out of nails....just couldn't leave them behind. :)
I will be linking up to many of the parties on my side bar.
Thanks for stopping by!!

I almost forgot to mention...The best thing about these little plants is, that they are so easy to propagate..
just break off a "pup" from the mother plant and stick it in the dirt!!
