Werxshop 001: DIY Succulent Gardens by Kermodi


Handy design principles and a few trade secrets (shh...) were revealed at Kermodi's first DIY class held recently in Vancouver. Kermodi Living Art was honoured to kick off the Homewerx Werxshop series with Werxshop 001: DIY Succulent Gardens.

The DIY class was held on a sunny, spring Saturday at Homewerx modern lifestyle store on Davie Street. It
was devoted to the care and unique personalities of succulents ~ plants that store water in their leaves and roots. We played with many varieties of cacti, aloe and eccheveria, to name a few. Fresh, animated and very zen, succulent gardens from soft sage to vivid greens were composed by our keen plant artistes. Thanks to all those who got down and dirty!

DIY class with Kermodi? Just LET US KNOW!

Get your outdoor space summer-ready




It's feeling like summer in Vancouver and we have one thing on our minds: patio dinners and BBQ parties. There is something about eating (and drinking) outside that just shouts "Summer" at the top of its sun-kissed, short-shorts-wearing lungs.

In anticipation of soon-to-come outdoor dining, here is an easy way to spruce up your outdoor space: potted succulent gardens. Succulents are ideal plants for summer and (bonus!) they are plants that keep the health of the planet in mind. They love the outdoors, look sculptural and beautiful - and unlike some outdoor plants the watering schedule will not make you a slave to the watering can. Kermodi offers quaint sempervivums in greens, chartreuse and silvery gray and echeveria in greens, greys, mauves and even stripes!

(Oh, and succulents make great hostess gifts too. Trust us, there is already enough potato salad.)

Considering an outdoor arrangement that is more voluminous for your roof terrace or patio? Kermodi offers outdoor planted arrangements in all shapes and sizes - from edible herb gardens to large privacy planters.

Give us a call, or send an email to inquire about our offerings.
