Succulents belong to the Crassulaceae family, with approximately 60 families and over 300 different species. Succulents are highly adaptable to arid environments, making them easy to grow and care for. Although not a new addition to the area, succulents are becoming a popular ornamental plant in Ha Tinh.

Succulents come in many beautiful and unique varieties, such as brown succulents, Buddha's hand succulents, diamond succulents, red-edged succulents, heart-shaped succulents, etc., with common prices ranging from 15,000 to 400,000 VND per plant. In addition, rare, ancient, or imported succulents from Korea, Japan, China, etc., command higher prices, from 1 to 10 million VND per plant.

The best time for succulents to grow is in winter, as this is when they produce many leaves and become more succulent.

To keep up with the latest trends in ornamental plant cultivation, many flower shops in Ha Tinh have recently imported a variety of succulent plants, while also researching and experimenting with planting techniques and shaping substrates to enhance the value of their products.

Skilled craftsmen can easily create beautiful mini succulent pots using different types of succulents, in various shapes, combined with other decorative materials. Besides their natural colors, shops also spray paint the succulents to add accents to the flowers.

For a succulent to have "soul," the meticulousness and creativity of the grower are extremely important. Through the hands and artistic eye of the craftsman, succulents, even when grown on substrates made of broken earthenware or porcelain, still possess their own unique charm and appeal.

Mr. Tran Quang Dung (owner of 10H Flower shop) said: "Compared to other types of flowers, succulents are easy to grow, require little care, are quite affordable, and last a long time. Currently, the demand for succulents in Ha Tinh is growing strongly, so I have also partnered with many nurseries in Da Lat, Hanoi , etc., to collect and update new varieties for the 2024 Tet flower market."

With just a small corner at a desk or a narrow space on the rooftop, succulent enthusiasts can design their own charming little garden, filled with the fresh green of nature. Succulents can also be designed into many cute miniature landscapes, offering many enjoyable experiences for flower lovers.

Ms. Le Kim Tinh (Ha Tinh City) shared: "Besides their eye-catching appearance, succulents also convey a message of enduring vitality and help purify the air, so more and more people are growing them. Not only that, you can propagate them yourself during the care process by separating shoots or rooting cuttings, which is quite economical while still ensuring you can enjoy the hobby of growing succulents."
