Love this blog, and succulent pot combinations. Love the pot that looks like it is made out of little flat pebbles, how creative is that!!

I created the plant combination below, after seeing the first picture in the link above. Just loved it.

The sansevieria and sedum look wonderful together. I also like the rock pot.

I think I like my pot better than the one in the blog, but I think hers accentuates the color of the agave better. I tip my hat to you.
