Succulents and Cactus

We have a lovely wall vase that I like to keep filled with fresh flowers. Or, depending on the season, it gets filled with holiday themed plants or branches with twinkling lights. Back in February we were searching for something to put in the wall vase and thought maybe a cactus or succulent might look okay. That, with an air plant might do the trick. So I put them in the vases, along with the dirt and stones, and they have been doing okay. But I didn’t like the look of the dirt in the clear glass vases. So we decided to move these plants to a low rise vase, fill it with rocks, garnish it with the same air plant, and move it to the other apartment where it gets a lot of light in the morning. We had to recently move the house plant that used to sit on the kitchen table out to the patio. So there was plenty of space for this arrangement. I don’t have anything to put in the wall vase at this time but will probably get some fresh flowers at the grocery store tomorrow. It’s nice that have a “live” wall arrangement. It changes with the seasons and usually looks nice - except for the succulents and cactus.
