About the Succulent and Cactus Bonsai DIY Rocks, Golden Sand Stones
Golden Sand Stones are hard decorative rocks that haven't undergone polishing, retaining their natural texture. The blend of translucent stones in pale yellow and creamy white resembles golden sand from a distance when used as top dressing for potted succulents. With a particle size of approximately 3-6mm, their soft colors enhance their decorative appeal, suitable for both indoor and outdoor potted succulents, as well as for decorating succulents in glass containers.
How to use Succulent and Cactus Bonsai DIY Rocks, Golden Sand Stones
Top Dressing: Golden Sand Stones are lightweight, with particle diameters ideal for top dressing medium to small-sized potted succulents. It's worth noting that the unpolished Golden Sand Stones may have sharp edges and corners, which could scratch the soft leaves of some succulent plants. They are recommended for use with Haworthia and cactus species.
DIY Projects: These aesthetically pleasing Golden Sand Stones can also be used for DIY projects, serving as an alternative to conventional top dressing. They can be paired with terrarium and plants to create tabletop centerpieces or used in fairy gardens and dish gardens, enhancing the clean look of your succulent arrangements.

Shipping Speed
In general, it takes 3 to 10 days for plants to arrive after you place your order. All orders will be shipped out 48 hours after you place them. We ship the orders on work days(from Monday to Saturday) and all year round. In normal conditions, it will take 3-10 days for you to receive the package. Estimated shipping times are offered as needed.

EXTREME WEATHER NOTICE: The Next Gardener reserves the right to hold shipments during storms or periods of extreme heat or cold. This is to ensure your plant does not suffer while it is in transit.
Winter shipping
We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.
Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.
Hawaii, Alaska, and Other US Territories
Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And we can not provide the 14-day quality guarantee for orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. We appreciate your understanding.
Sorry. No International Shipping for now!!!
