Designing the arc

If you haven't seen it in my Facebook or Instagram, my wife gave birth a couple of days ago! She just got discharged today and I finally got to take both her and my baby girl home.

Anyway, back on topic. In a previous episode, you have seen me elevate the arc by lining it with large volcanic rocks and filling the inside with loose soil. I haven't really thought much about the design yet but I have a rough sketch. So I am currently thinking about the layout and design for the succulent arc.

I intend to integrate sunken bowls and pots into the design again. Then surround them with a little tapestry (or just fill up parts of the gaps). Right now I am leaning towards not having a perfectly symmetrical design, as that will limit what I can do with the arc. Instead, I'm thinking of creating multiple points of interest. Maybe set the bowls/pots in groups and at various heights. The multiple points of interest will work well especially if I place a variety of large echeverias, one per container.

So far all I know is that I want large specimens of echeveria to go inside the containers. Then I'll go around and take some cuttings and pups from my propagations to use in any of the tapestry that I end up doing.

If you have any suggestions, I'd like you to share it in the comments. I will probably start working on it next weekend (the weekend of December 16 and 17) so I will be watching out for your comments until then. Can't wait to see what we end up doing!
