Now that summer is over and fall is in full swing, it’s time to spruce up your indoor garden game. If you’re hoping for a beautiful and easy indoor garden sanctuary this fall, why not try succulents? Succulent plants are great because they come in a variety of shapes, colors, and sizes—suitable to all kinds of interior spaces.
Succulents are easy to identify because of their juicy leaves and stems. These leaves aren’t just pretty—they’re designed to hold water during droughts. That’s good news for the forgetful gardener: succulents are resilient, hardy and versatile.
But with thousands of varieties to choose from, it’s hard to know which types of succulents are right for your indoor space. Low levels of natural light and cooler temperatures mean you’ll need to adjust how much water and fertilizer you give. Some plants adapt to hanging planters and terrariums better than others.
Chemistry Cachet always wants to bring you the best information for safe and healthy living, so it’s important to know some succulents can even be toxic to your indoor animals. When you get right down to it, there is a lot to know about succulent care! That’s why UncommonGoods, one of Brooklyn’s favorite online retailers of home and garden décor, has researched and compiled a list of 10 best succulents to brighten up your home this fall.

Living in an apartment I’d like to get a plant that will actually live indoors! In the last 2 years I’ve killed two plants, only managed to keep them going for a few months, so hopefully next time will go better!
We lived in apartments for seven years, and indoor plants were always a struggle! I had the best luck with succulents and ivy. Other than that, I just turned my balcony into a little outdoor garden with a bunch of potted plants! But succulents and cacti were always pretty good for indoor pots 🙂
This post is perfect! I’ve really been wanting to add some green to my office but I’ve killed every plant I brought in so my next option was going to be succulents. Definitely going to look into these! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
I think you will have much better luck with succulents! They don’t require as much care and do well inside!
Thank you for the article I am a brown thumb, but succulents seem tough enough to survive in my home. Great infographic.
Succulents do so much better inside than most plants! I have better luck with them too 🙂 Thanks Leanna!
I seem to kill all plants that we get for inside, but our succulent that lives on the breakfast bar is almost a year old and still going strong!

That’s awesome! They really do so much better!
Love succulents – we have a lot of indoor and outdoors ones. I have not heard of a Thanksgiving cactus, but I have 4 Christmas cacti. These bloom all.year.round and keep growing out of their pots! They know no holiday/season. I also have aloe vera and jade plants – both inside and outside. Curious to see if I can try another kind of succulent.
I love jade plants! We used to have a huge aloe vera outside, but of course, it died in the extreme Texas heat. We need to try it inside!
My only question is: are they pet friendly?
This list is pet friendly 🙂 Many succulents aren’t though, so I always like to use ones that are safe!
I’m so glad. So often I see articles for indoor plants that are NOT pet friendly. Dogs (and cats) like to “taste” a new plant that has come into their house and ended up at the vet. Thanks for a vet-free list!
You are so right! Pets are always curious and wanting to taste test everything 🙂 Better safe than sorry!
I am terrible with succulents! Well, actually this year having loads of natural light helped! I should try some of these succulents!
It does make a difference having light! I have a spot in my kitchen that gets sunlight most of the day and it is a great spot to grow them 🙂
I completely forgot about Jade Plants! I used to have them growing up and LOVED them! Makes me want to go right to the store and pick one up!
They are so great! I need to get another too!
I love the look of succulents, but so far have only tried the faux variety! 😉 You’ve inspired me to try a live plant. 🙂 Thanks for linking up to Funtastic Friday!
I hope you can try one out with success! They really are easy to grow compared to most 🙂 Thanks Kimm!
I just wrote an article on best houseplants! Loved seeing your version.
