Julia Hillier

Author of Succulent Style

Julia Hillier is the author of Succulent Style: A Gardener’s Guide to Growing and Crafting with Succulents, a #1 New Release in Cacti & Succulents, Gardening, Horticulture, and more. Written with warmth and clarity, Succulent Style is packed with expert-level insights shared in a way that anyone—from plant-curious beginners to experienced growers—can easily understand and enjoy.

Julia learned from the very best—the first succulent growers in the United States, including world-renowned expert Dick Wright, who taught her propagation and hybridizing techniques firsthand. She was invited into their greenhouses, their growing spaces, and their world, and she generously shares that knowledge with her readers. These growing techniques and design secrets were often kept close in the industry. Julia now passes them along to you.

Her passion for plants and decades of hands-on experience have made Julia a trailblazer in succulent design. Many of the styling techniques she teaches in her book have helped revolutionize how succulents are used in tabletop arrangements, wreaths, and wedding work. Her thriving business, Succulent Artworks and her designs, have been featured in multiple national magazines, on Prime Time TV and displayed at major tourist attractions and botanical gardens. Succulent Artworks is known for luxurious, living designs that ship beautifully nationwide.
