Altman Plants Desert Oasis Collection

Create your very own oasis with these stunning succulents. Easy to grow and hard to kill, live succulent plants like these are a popular choice for both indoor and outdoor home décor. They come fully rooted in 1-gallon nursery pots. Their large size makes them relatively rare succulents online. Use these charming plants to design a succulent kit, display them as large potted shrubs, or arrange them on plant stands alongside a variety of large succulent plants. They enjoy full sun and well-draining soil and only need watering when the soil is dry. The Elephant Bush (aka Dwarf Jade) is a multi-stemmed, softwood shrub or small tree featuring red-brown stems and glossy, spoon-shaped foliage with tiny leaves in rich shades of green. They can bloom small, star-shaped flowers and are among the unique desert plants around. This plant is so versatile you can even plant it in a large succulent planter and grow it as a bonsai tree. Sedum is a beautiful shrubby plant with mahogany-colored stems accented by creamy yellow leaves with green mid-stripes. The habit of this form differs from the upright stance of elephant bush in that it is somewhat cascading and spreads quickly laterally rather than vertically. They are often used as bonsai, as the stems are easily trained. Also great as a hanging basket in an atrium or for a patio. It is one of the prettiest filler or spiller plants you'll ever see in mixed succulent arrangements. Like the all-green-foliage version, this softer-looking form tolerates neglect and dry conditions if hot or sunless. Flowers in summer, although rarely. Cotyledon, or "Mint Truffles," is a hybrid succulent variety featuring thin, mint green leaves that are faintly outlined with a striking shade of red. These plants can bloom orange bell-shaped flowers in the spring and are among the unique desert plants around. Try propagating succulents with cuttings or seeds in big succulent pots to grow your own Cotyledon "Mint Truffles' plants.
