# First time succulent keeper here. I started out doing the hard thing…

_Posted by Hal on 2026-04-02_

First time succulent keeper here. I started out doing the hard thing and propagating from a few leaves and everyone is doing so well😭

Photo 1: ogre ear- one of my original leaves that I thought was just going to wither and die and she’s doing amazing!

Photo 2: crinkle plant- another original that doing fantastic

Photo 3: random echeveria leaf I found broken off at a store. No idea what type it is but it’s doing soooo well

Photo 4: Crassula springtime that I bought the mother plant at a pet expo recently and when I was potting it, I broke a leaf off. You might not be able to see it but it rooted into the dirt!
