1. Get the right plant. Succulents don't need much care. 

2. Let there be (not too much) light! Plants need different levels of light. 

3. Change is bad. Be consistent with your plants. 

4. The plant chooses the pot.

5. Use the good dirt. 

6. Cut the dead stuff. 

7. Don't over-water your plants.
