Watering Needs Indoors: Instead of giving your succulents gradual sips of water throughout the week, give them a good soaking, to the point where water runs out the drainage holes at the bottom of the pot. Be sure to empty the water that runs into the saucer, succulents do not like to sit in water. Then let the soil dry out completely before watering again.
Watering Needs Outdoors: In the Summer water your succulents every two weeks, by soaking them and letting them dry before watering again. In the Winter water your succulents once a month.

I was surprised at how well this one traveled. It's very pretty and easy to transplant into a larger pot using gardening gloves.
I am so happy with my purchases! Everything was beautiful and very carefully packaged to avoid shipping damage.
