Do you love succulents?? And do you love having happy mail delivered straight to your door?? If so, you are definitely going to love The Succulents Box! They are a monthly subscription box of, you guessed it- succulents!!
They were kind enough to send me a box to review and I have to tell y’all, I am so impressed with them! The succulents are so cute and arrived in excellent condition. So if you’re a crazy plant lady like me, you’re going to want in on this!
Receiving Your Succulents
I was highly impressed with how well packaged the succulents were! They arrived very quick and in perfect condition. If you just received your succulents from The Succulent Box too, then there are a few things to note when opening them:
- Do not put succulents in sunlight immediately. They will need to adjust gradually.
- Keep plants in shade or indirect sunlight and then slowly introduce them to direct sun.
- They prefer daytime temperatures of 70 and 85 degrees. Make sure to shade them if your climate is hotter.
- Water only when the soil is dry!
- In summer, water generously every 1-2 weeks
- In winter, cut back to just once a month
Ordering Your Succulents
So you get to choose what succulents you want to receive! And of course I have a coupon code for y’all to try to! Did you really think I would share a product with you all without giving you a coupon code?! Even cooler, I have two options for you to choose from!
You can get $5 off your first box with the code “5OFF” or you can get 10% off your total with the code “HAPPYPLANT10” too!
Red Lion Sepervivum
This succulent is beautiful, although it isn’t very red upon first glance. If you look closely, you can see a light red hue to it. But it is not a vibrant shade. I am not sure if it grows more into a red color or not, I guess we will see as time goes on! Here is all the info on the Red Lion:
- Full or partial sun
- Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch, and then let drain completely.
- Reduce watering to a minimum during the winter
- Likes gritty, sandy soil
Blue Atoll Echeveria
This succulent is large and beautiful! I love how it looks in my painted terra cotta pot too. Here are all the recommendations for the Blue Atoll:
- Full or partial sun
- Only needs occasional water
- Needs a well-drained succulent mix
- Generally non-toxic to humans and animals
Ramilette Echeveria
This is your classic green looking succulent. Cute and tiny and just so adorable no matter where you plant it! Here is all the basic info for Ramilette:
- Full or partial sun
- Avoid letting water sit too long in the rosette to prevent rot and fungal diseases
- Likes a well drained succulent mix
Rubrotinctum Jelly Bean Sedum
I saved my favorite for last! How fun is this succulent y’all?! I just love the shape to it and how it looks just like jelly beans! If you want one too, here is all the care and tips you need to know for it:
- Full sun
- Water deeply when soil is dry to the touch and then let it drain completely
- Likes soil that is well aerated
Conclusion
So if these look like some plants you would like to receive too, go check out The Succulents Box and order you some as well! I just love getting plants delivered straight to my door. They deliver all sorts of house plants straight to your door too!
I personally think you can never have enough plants and/or succulents! So no matter what kind of plant is your favorite, you just can’t go wrong! I have them scattered all over my porches as well as some inside too!

I’m terrible at taking care of plants but i’m doing really good with my air plants. I need more plants in my office and I was just going to do fake succulents for my windows, but I’ll look into these. I just only need plants that take minimal care so they can have a maximal lifespan lol

Unwanted Life says
I think I just learnt more about plants in this one post than I have in years, and I normally watch a fair amount of nature and wildlife documentaries. I guess it’s because I don’t have the luxury of having a garden

There are so many different subscription boxes out there right now, but this one is super unique. I LOVE that you can have succulents delivered right to your door – that’s something I would jump on without hesitation if I could find a similar service in our country.
Have you seen the black succulents that have been all over social media? I SOOO want to find them somewhere (specifically somewhere that will mail to Canada). I would LOVE to have those in my office.
Charity Gentry says
I know right?! I love it too! It’s such a fun idea for a subscription box. And I haven’t seen the black succulents before. I will have to check that out!

I love succulents! It is so cool how some last so long!! They’re also cute in size too. I have some cactus for over 20 years and it grew so much! OOoooh I love the tips – kind of a bummer that I have one in the office and we haven’t been able to go back for 3 months. I don’t even want to think of its condition now. My mom loves the jelly bean one!! Thanks for sharing this care guide!

Ellis James Designs says
It’s a common sentiment across the comments that we’re all quite bad at taking care of plants, oh dear! I’m useless with plants and I even managed to almost kill a small bunny-eared cactus by keeping it indoors. Thanks for the plant care tips you included, definitely useful to those interested!
Charity Gentry says
Thank you so much! I hope these tips can help you out in the future! I used to be terrible with plants too!

Jaya says
I went to a wedding once, and the favors were little boxes of succulents. I love the light green shades most of the plants come in, and the different star shapes. I often feel like succulents embody living origami!
Charity Gentry says
Yes! Succulents make perfect favors! And I totally agree!
Kaci says
I’ve seen their advertisements on my Facebook, but I’ve been a little skeptical on trying.
I think I’ll finally try it though. You’re right, you can never have too many plants!
Thank you for sharing!
Charity Gentry says
You should totally try them! I was very impressed with how well they arrived!
