Tip for making false stems on your succulents from Cindy at The Succulent Perch! When wiring and taping to add your false stem you will want to make sure not to cover up all the stem where the leaf nodes are- that is where the roots will develop. Using tape, too high up on the stem, may cover up the leaf nodes. You can also just use a firm wire, like an 18 gauge, insert it into the succulents stem and then into the sphere…no tape needed! The 18 gauge will be stiff enough to insert the succulent!

omg…LOVE THIS. it's on my to do list!
Hello. Wonderful video. One question for you. When you use the green pins, do you pierce the succulent to hold it in place or just use the pin to push up against the stem?
Thats Awesome never seen one before Great Job.
That link you provided seems to require you to have some sort of business to shop with them. Do you know of any places online where a non-business owner can buy moss balls fairly inexpensively? (I'm seeing some other results on my searches, but they're all $35 plus shipping for a little 6" moss sphere.)
will the false stem last for a long time?
♡
So cute!!! Where do you buy your succulents?
i love it!!! im going to make one.
how long will this succulent sphere last???
Oh my gosh, I would never have attempted this before seeing your video. You explain the process so well and I thank you for that.
Hi what happens when they grow out ?
oi Laura eu sou uma brasileira q não entende nada duque VC fala mas eu sou louca pra saber como VC fez essa kokedama de musgo que vc colocou as suculentas dentro dela tem terra?
I love ur innovations and presentations !Can u tell how much watering is needed for succulents ? In north India the temp and season keeps changing every four months .
+Angie Clawson I remove the roots so they will easily slide into place in the moss sphere. This sphere is tightly packed with moss (and I mean, TIGHT with moss 🙂 to where a root ball wouldn't fit. I make cuttings, let them callous, insert them into the sphere, and they will form brand new roots and do great! Thanks for the question! ~Laura
Just curious…why do you have to remove the root before planting??
great video! I just did a video on succulents come by my channel and see it!
Hey there 🙂 so I made a dessert terrarium and one of my cactus is kinda loose even when alot of soil is compressed against its shoot and even if I replant it the same problem happens. what should I do? I'm scared it will die
What does she mean by "calus", when she says to allow them a few days to develop a calus? 2:18 Thanks
Where do u get that tear drop shape glass from?
put a small house it will look cuter
put a small house it will look cuter
love this video! I just made a terrarium and succulent video on my channel also!

This was so cute. I only have 1 question, with the hens and chick's I have some and they get pretty big, but with planting them (like she did, in that container) Will the size, keep them from growing so big? Thanks again for sharing this
