The Journey of Prickly Petals

In the vast expanse of nature, amidst the myriad of flora, there’s a resilient beauty that stands out – the succulent. Just like these plants, Prickly Petals began as a tiny seed of passion in the heart of Wouter, and with time, love, and dedication, it has grown into the flourishing platform you see today.

Meet Wouter

A picture of me, hard at work!

Hello, fellow succulent enthusiasts! I’m Wouter, the green thumb behind Prickly Petals. My journey with succulents began as a child, exploring my grandmother’s garden, marveling at the intricate patterns and vibrant colors of these unique plants. Over the years, this childhood curiosity transformed into a profound passion.

I created Prickly Petals to share this passion with the world. To me, succulents are more than just plants; they are symbols of endurance, adaptability, and timeless beauty. Through this platform, I aim to inspire, educate, and connect with fellow enthusiasts and novices alike.

Our Mission

At Prickly Petals, our mission is simple yet profound: to celebrate the world of succulents in all its glory. We strive to provide accurate information, practical care tips, and a space for all to share their succulent stories.
