People Are Growing Translucent Succulents That Look Like Jewels

Succulents make great houseplants, particularly if you’re new to gardening or you just seem to lack a green thumb. They’re easy to maintain and don’t require much attention, other than some sunlight and water here and there.

What I’m trying to say is if you suck and gardening, succulents are the plants fr you!

However, some talented gardeners are taking it a step further by growing succulents that look like gorgeous crystals. Dare we say it, they almost look like jewels!

Just look how insane this is:

One commenter said this looked like boba, those tapioca balls you get in your bubble tea:

They’re called haworthia succulents and they’re related to aloe vera plants. They like sandy soil, partial sun and not too much water.

If you’re feeling inspired by these stunning succulents, you can usually find them at your local gardening store. You can even order them online through retailers like Amazon. Because they have everything. Except happiness. *sigh*
