Cast Succulents

 My succulent, Aeonium Sedifolium, I bought during the lockdown grow enough for me to cut off sections for casting.

 I had an idea of making the succulents into rings, as seen in the image below, but the leaves are delicate as where they join the stem is narrow in comparison to the tip of the leaves thus making them brittle and easy to break off. I tumbled them for some time to help harden the silver but I am still wary about making them into rings.
