Succulents: All You Need to Know
As one of the most popular presents across the US, succulents are known for their beauty, longevity, minimal maintenance, and ability to purify the surroundings. If you’re considering buying a succulent for your own space, a close friend, or your office, make sure you know the basics about succulents.
The beautiful plants have thick, fleshy tissues that store water and come from a family of drought-resistant plants. As a result, succulents adapt incredibly well to environments that are considerably more dry and arid than usual.
In this blog, we’ll dive deeper into what makes succulents so special and why you should consider incorporating them into your space or sending them to a loved one. Continue reading.
1. Incredible Purification Properties
Today, succulents are widely purchased across the globe for their incredible purification properties. According to research conducted by NASA, succulents can effectively remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the atmosphere. As contaminated air is pulled all the way down to the plant’s roots, the air is left purified and cleansed.
This effect isn’t just physical. While physical contaminants are eliminated from the space, toxic energy is also pulled from a person’s surroundings. Succulents supercharge the space and make people feel more relaxed, calmed, soothed, and at peace. This is because both physical contaminants and psychological (mental and emotional) blockages and negativities are eliminated from the space.
2.Types of Succulents
There are over 180 different varieties of succulents, all of which are unique. Choose between agave, aloe, crassula, gasteria, opuntia, haworthia, kalanchoe, and a wide range of other types.
