Beth Bennett of Columbus , Ohio has used Instragram to challenge herself gardening indoors….all with a focus on succulents .
" About a twelvemonth ago , I challenge myself to post one photograph a daylight on Instagram @bruckborder as a way of life to written document and deal my gardening story . I created little rule for my Instagram provender to give it a cohesive look . For example , all photos must be of my garden , my home plate , and the plants that I grow . I also wanted my veranda to be relevant to the current season . It was moderately easy to develop content during the growing months but I make out I would strike a lull in the winter . In my experience , garden outdoors is like fudge and sustain houseplants is like bake . outdoors is conciliatory , forgiving and constitutional while deep down is exact , fixed and not intuitive for me at all . But after being a successful outdoor nurseryman for twenty twelvemonth my slight Instagram challenge has give me the motivation to become a proficient indoor gardener . I challenge all of you to share your gardening journey on Instagram , as I have see the community of interests very supportive and you all do such lovely work . "

Here are some of my baby succulent cuttings from some of my older plants.
My outdoor containers are all large, but I have found I prefer small containers for my indoor plants, as I tend to move them around.
This is my oldest living houseplant container–I’ve managed to keep it going for four years now. During the summer it is the centerpiece on my outdoor table.
Succulent cuttings make thoughtful gifts. My stepmom gave me these for my birthday a few years ago and they’re still alive!
This container is a good example of the diversity both in texture and color of succulents.
This is my winter spot. It’s the sunniest seat in the house and it’s where I dream about and plan my upcoming growing season and read my “Fine Gardening."
