With such a wide variety of suitable plants to choose from, finding something that fits your style shouldn’t be
difficult. Look for plants that sprout roots quickly such as ivies and philodendrons. Some flowering plants such as violets,
pansies and alyssum can be used as well; in fact many flowering plants will accommodate the structure of a living wreath.
Succulents come in many shapes and colors and most make great living wreaths because they are so easy to care for. Mint,
thyme, rosemary and many other herbs can also be used. The important thing to keep in mind when you are choosing your plants
is that they should all have similar growing requirements. Make sure that each plant you choose shares common soil, water and
sunlight needs. Be sure to pick up potting soil that is appropriate for the type of plants you will be using. Succulents for
instance, prefer a sandy quick draining soil, while violets thrive in fertile nutrient rich soil. Be creative with your
selection and try mixing plants with different colors and textures.
