Gasteria Batesiana Okavango

The leaves are a little narrower than other succulents of this type, so it adds interesting texture and shape to a terrarium. You can also pop these little lovelies in stand-alone pots to brighten a drab desk or coffee table and grow them in a rock garden.

Succulents are drought-tolerant and easy to care for. Simply pop yours into well-drained potting mix, choose a light spot away from direct sunlight, and water sparingly. If you aren’t sure what you’re doing check out our blog page Caring For Succulents.

Succulents make great gifts, especially for the men in your life.
