2. Use A Rectangular Wooden Box And Fill It With Succulents
Here's a really awesome idea for showing off your succulents and cacti. Get a weathered wooden rectangular box and fill it with your plants.
If it's deep enough, you could either plant directly or keep the succulents in their own pots, making it easier to change them out if needed.
This shape of an indoor garden would make a fantastic centerpiece on a kitchen or dining room table.
It's lovely how different heights and shapes of plants have been used to create a desert landscape in miniature. This even includes the stones used to create the feeling of ground.
