Succulents are some of the first houseplants I started collecting. They're also some of the first I made the biggest mistakes with, and subsequently the first I killed off. From my errors, the most important thing I've learned is that you need to have your succulent growing in the right spot for it to be happy.
Although succulent care is fairly straightforward, their ideal growing environment is very particular. That's why there are some places you should never grow succulents. Most notably, those overly humid and lower light spots aren't going to do the best indoor succulents any favors.
