It’s one of those items that I’m always sad to discover is in the laundry. Highly recommend getting it oversized so it’s even more flowy.”

“I’ve given and been gifted these little succulents from Lula’s Garden, and they’re always well-received,” says one SELF writer. “I’m always impressed by how well they hold up in the mail, and I’ve repotted them over the years with great success.
