Here's how to get your hands on the latest Instagram trend.
Goth succulents, in a variety of shapes, sizes, and dark eerie hues, are taking over Instagram as the (un)official décor of the season – because nothing says 'Happy Halloween' like a planter full of spooky, jet black plants.
Meet the king — dare we say, prince — of succulents. Depending on the variety, this evergreen plant sometimes looks black in the right light (or very, very, very dark purple). Because of it's unique shade, it's considered the most royal succulent out there. Hear that, Meghan and Kate?!
Plant Care Tip: For darker leaves, place this plant in direct sunlight.
Now this one is pretty spooky, right? Considered to be a 'black rose', the leaves are a dramatic burgundy-black colour that stands out in planters, window boxes, and more. In fact, they're so shiny and dark, they almost look fake.
Plant Care Tip: Keep them healthy all season long by placing them in well-drained soil in direct sunlight.
Take a look at these beauties! While these small perennials only grow up to 4 inches in height, the real magic lies in their dense, fluffy rosettes.
Plant Care Tip: Whatever you do, don't overwater this plant. Water once a week to prevent the root from rotting.
