# Hi all. This plant has been acting weird lately. It is a Needle…

_Posted by Shayla on 2026-02-26_

Hi all. This plant has been acting weird lately. It is a Needle Stonecrop and a haworthia. The haworthia has started growing.. something? I’m not sure if it is a new sprout or if it’s something to be concerned with. But my stonecrop has been really dying down. The first picture is from when I got it in November and it’s really thinning out and dying off and I’m not sure what’s happening, honestly I don’t even know where the leaves have been going, they just disappear- it’s not even that they are dying off and getting brown.

Advice appreciated! It gets indirect sun during the day and I don’t water it often.

The stonecrop needs lots of light, even direct sun. The haworthia does not so they are not compatible. I have very bright grow lights and have trouble keeping some stonecrop.
