Whip out your magnifying glass, because micro succulents are the newest plant trend! Yes, you read that correctly — miniature cacti are here to take the world by storm, and really, we couldn't be more thrilled by the news. The Etsy shop Tierra Sol Studio is what turned us on to the teeny-tiny plants, and their cute pots and adorable appeal are what's drawing a crowd to the global marketplace. With some of the shop's plants smaller than a human finger, their care is as simple as their larger desert-thriving cousins: lots of sun and minimal water, so even beginners can watch over these microscopic cacti. Take a look at the itty-bitty greenery that's making a big impact on the plant community and see for yourself!
