There are many reasons why I love this ‘DIY Succulent Table’  feature in this month’s Sunset Magazine. Firstly, the table was conceived and designed by Flora Grubb Gardens employee Matti Salomaki and his partner Megan Speckmann – there’s truly no end to the creativity of our talented staff! It’s also no secret that I adore succulents and using them in table arrangements – this adds a whole new dimension. Then, count all the ways that this concept is kind to the environment… it recycles, requires minimal watering, and creates a table bouquet that could last forever!
