Popular succulent types include sedums, sempervivums, agaves, aeoniums and pearl ribbons. All are grown for their foliage rather than their flowers. Succulents are also good houseplants.
How to Grow SucculentsGrow succulents in free-draining soil or compost, such as cactus compost, in full sun to partial shade. Water sparingly from spring to autumn, but avoid watering completely during autumn and winter. Most succulents grow slowly. If you grow them in pots, turn them over with fresh compost every two years
