If the vessel is chosen small enough three copies, if bigger - five.

2
Pour on the bottom of the vessel drainage. Its height should be at least 1/3 the height of the pot. This is to ensure that water does not stagnate at the roots of the plants, and freely through the drainage dripping down. Succulents do not like wet.
3
Over the drainage place a bit (1-3 cm of soil) and place it out of the pot plants. As a rule, the roots will remain good root ball, try not to destroy it.
Group plants so that they looked each other. In the center or slightly to the side is the highest, next - lower, and the edges are very small.

Pour the ground between the roots of flowers, gently push it with your fingers, so that the surface of the earth in the vessel was smooth.
5
Adorn your composition with the sand, spectacular, stones, shells. Connect your imagination and place a bright decorative element: the figure of a turtle, butterfly. Set up on a cactus homemade made from paper sombrero, giving the gift of a humorous national "desert" flavor.

Spray spray plants, sand and stones, washing away dust and dirt.
