Art: Florist turns succulents into wall art in Shaanxi

Florist He Meng has packed her latest creation with more than 60 living succulents and other plants. At 1.9 meters high and 1 m wide, it's the first of its type made by the young woman living in Xi'an, Shaanxi province. Running a small shop at the flower market, the design graduate has applied her skills to floral art. Her shop offers tailored green designs for home or office. Being the first one in the market to use live succulents in an artwork, she had to figure out how to solve all of the technical problems herself.
