10 Cold-hardy Succulents

Winter is around the corner in the Northern Hemisphere but that doesn’t mean you can’t still add a few more succulents to your collection! Here are some lovely cold-hardy succulents for those of you who don’t have a lot of space left over after bringing your plants indoors. Many can survive freezing temperatures and even snow!

These succulents have adapted to colder weather by minimizing the amount of water stored in their thin leaves and shallow root systems, but remember it’s still best to try to keep these varieties dry. Consider starting with a smaller order to experiment with this winter to see what works best for you. Refer to the zone hardiness for the low temperatures for each individual plant.
