Can you do better? Prove it!

Back by popular demand - the Best Succulent Containers Contest especially for those thoroughly addicted succulent gardeners; brag up your favorite combination of plants, in your thoughtfully planted weird, unusual and different container. 

Share your unique ideas to display your tender succulent plants and whatever else fits into the category of 'succulent plant' - they can be hardy Sedum or Sempervivum, the hens and chicks, or mix and match; then choose, combine, and create.

Rustic salvage, and funky planters made from hypertufa, driftwood, glass or any other material recombined and upcycled are where it's at lately; think outside the box, use your imagination!

Sign up and watch for the announcement in Xeria.

There aren't many rules, but please check them out here: Best Succulent Containers.

Spread the word to your friends and family - use the Twitter and Facebook buttons at the bottom of this page, and if you're on Pinterest, pin your favorite planter on your Pinterest page.

Please write as much as you can about your project; visitors to the site love detail!

It's time!

Are you ready to brag? Let's get going - if your succulent containers are unique, unusual, funky and eyepopping, we want you!
