With these plants all you need is alot of bright light, like sun and water once a month depending on if your climate. Also does it have drainage holes on the bottom? If yes then great. If not then be very careful nnot to over water..

I live in Texas so it’s very hot during this time of year. Yes, the pot does have a drainage hole !

I water my succulents slightly more often in the summer but my apartment is quite bright and hot in the summer so I water ever two weeks roughly at this time. Not much fertilizing only sometimes and diluted. Winter might mean 3-4 weeks between watering. I have had to be careful to not over water or over sun believe it or not!

I honestly am not sure about succulents, but I have read that a lot of plants do better without rocks on top of the soil so that you can monitor for mold or infestation. That’s a lovely group of plants!

I also enjoy creating succulent arrangements. I think you chose plants with similar needs so they should be good for a while. And looks like terracotta planter. Another great choice. I always finish a display with a topping of some sort, like you have done. You can also add a few large rocks and/or drift wood. Check out my Planta. Here are a few of what I have done. Last pic is an outside arrangement.

Your arrangement is pretty. The cactus may eventually need to go to a separate pot because it needs a lot less watering than the succulents.
