Dulles is a huge airport with nonstop service to almost all major US airports and many foreign places. It is also a long way out of DC, and it takes an hour or more and costs a minimum of about $15 dollars for the combined bus/Metrorail trip into town, much more for airport shuttles and even more money for taxis.
5. Select a stem to cut. Most succulents are not difficult to grow, but you can still increase your chances of a healthy plant with the right cutting. Ideally, select a stem that is actively growing, near the top or outer edge of the plant, and 4â6 inches (10â15 centimeters) long.. Strip leaves from the lower part of the stem. If you are using a stem cutting, remove the lowest cluster of leaves. Strip them with the same, sterilized knife, leaving the lowest 2â4 inches (5â10 cm) of the stem bare.
Succulent Test Garden Tip: All cacti are succulents, but not all succulents are cacti. While some types of succulents have somewhat exacting care requirements, most are easy to grow because they evolved with special water-storage tissues that allow them to survive in environments that are too dry for most other plants.his succulent is the perfect houseplant for a neglectful gardener because it doesn't need a lot of watering. Allow the soil to dry almost completely before watering, and keep low humidity if possible. Grow it in high light and direct sun if possible, but the plant will adapt to medium light.
