I'm not sure if I like it but I find it really unique.

Wow some great pictures here that have given me some new ideas, and motivation, for my garden. Adding a small pond to my backyard soon, would these kinds of ground cover do well around/near a small pond?

To be honest, I'm not sure if you can grow succulents near a small pond...it might be too wet for them. If you notice that they're soft and discolored, it means that they're overwatered.

This looks so pretty!:

Most nurseries have a section for pond plants that grow in around or on the water. Succulents are more desert-y plants, and probably won't do well in a high moisture environment.

That is a beautiful planter. I just love the pinky/purple ones!

I was looking for some pictures of succulents growing around ponds and I haven't found any, so I guess it's not the best area for them.

While I was wandering the net, I found this lovely picture:

That is the prettiest ground cover that I have ever seen ! Usually, you see these planted in someone's old boot or shoe, or in an odd planter of some kind. I did not know that succulents would spread that way. I am definitely going to have to find an area where I can plant some and let them spread. Thank you for sharing the beautiful pictures

I was looking for some information online and came across this stunning succulent ground cover. This would be so easy to maintain, so cool and colorful. I agree a lot of people use succulents for ground cover.. but this one real took my breath away. Have you designed your garden with succulents for ground cover? Share your pictures here..

I really don't like succulents and I prefer not to have them in my garden but I must say that I love most of the pictures here, they're stunning. Who would think that succulents can look so nice?
