Of all the trendy plants — we're talking fiddle leaf figs, cute little cacti, etc. — succulents just might be the trendiest. Maybe it's their vaguely prehistoric looks or the fact that they're easier to keep alive than most of their viridescent brethren, but the love for these plants is real. So real, in fact, that there's a sizeable Instagram subculture dedicated to sharing images of them. Welcome, my friends, to Succugram.
Seriously, succulents just may have more fan accounts than Beyonce and Ariana Grande combined. So if your feed is feeling in need of a little something green and leafy, read on for our recommendations of which ones to follow. Just remember: Digital succulent super-fandom is weirdly habit-forming. If you suddenly find yourself waking in the middle of the night to view (or post) images of out-of-this-world succulents, well, don't say we didn't warn you.
SuccyCrazy
With 16.7k followers, this Bay Area-based succulent lover shares plenty of pictures of traditional succulents — and also some wild-looking things we never would have guessed fall into the succulent category.
Succy_Place
I don't know about you, but I'm weirdly here for calling them "succys." Obviously, Succy_Place is too — and cat lovers will be psyched to know that the owner of this account has a feline who seems to like plants as much as they do.
Succulentssss
Not only is this account's featured image a picture of a succulent Photoshopped onto a human body, it also has the hookup on some seriously out-there succulents. We're talking little guys, coloured ones, things that seem downright alien. Hence, one assumes, the 71.5k followers.
South Beach Succulents
While many succulent accounts seem to be comprised mostly of re-posted content, South Beach Succulents does their own photography, to the joy of their 16.7k followers. And if you see something you like, there's a good chance you can order it in their Etsy shop.
SucculentKitty
It's hard not to love the pretty pastel succulents this account serves up. Honestly, who needs flowers anymore when you've got these?
Succulent_Mix
This account does, as advertised, provide a mix of varying types of succulent. If, at this point in our Succugram journey, you haven't yet been shocked by the kinds of things that qualify as succulents, I implore you to gaze hard at the image to the left. Yeah, that's real.
Succulent Studios
Ever wonder where succulents come from? Well, lots of places, but one of them is Succulent Studios, a company that will ship you two brand-new succulents a month for $10 (£7.85).
Succulent City
With 312k followers, Succulent City is the premiere resource for succulent content — yep, even succulent-themed cakes.
The Simple Succulent
This California-based succulent collector has 27.4k followers and a vintage car full of succulents. No, you're jealous.
MySucculentAddictionIsReal
The person in charge of this account certainly does seem to love succulents. Like, a lot, if this photo is any indication.
SucculentSuz
SucculentSuz shares with her 29.3k followers pictures of succulents big, small, and even fashioned into adorable crafts.
SucciesByCherry
The only thing cuter than a succulent is a succulent in a planter with a face painted on it, and on this, Cherry delivers.
Succulent Central
The curator of Succulent Central has a clear affinity for the colourful, the spiralling, and the otherwise unbelievable.
Succulent_Zoo
A great as these succulent accounts are, at a certain point, they all start to look the same. Not so of Joe Rockwell's succulent-animal creations, which are pretty much guaranteed to put a smile on your face.
Harddy Succulents
Not only does this Harddy share some astoundingly beautiful succulent pictures, but you can order from them online at Harddy.com.
