Everyone seems to be putting their DIY projects into Altoids tins and other candy containers. I’ve been collecting these small containers for a while but didn’t have a use for them until now. The Altoids Garden.
These tiny succulents cuttings and small herbs seem to be thriving in organic potting soil. I water them a few times a day.
A single cutting in organic soil covered with black stones. A tiny bonsai in a promotional CD case. They will likely stay small with such a small volume of soil. They should be misted a few times a day but don’t overwater. A light covering of stones will help keep the soil moist. Perfect for the office.
I really know very little about plants. However, all of these small succulents are native to Northern CA and are very hearty. I plucked them out of my yard like weeds. They require minimal care and watering. The Banzai were chosen based on small size. I have one that is a Pine, and a few others I don’t know. I also grew cat grass and other sprouting seeds. The only plant that didn’t last long were the herbs, because they need to grow – the succulents and Banzai are content to remain small.
