I haven’t repotted them in 2/3ish years. Any advice on what kind of pot I should repot with? They are thick but flimsy Also should I trim the long one and propagate?

    Im in the middle repotting my jade too- also been like 3 years. Mine grew more like tree trunks and up. It was in a west facing bay window and got lots of sun tho. I would def chop and prop those leggy bits. Let the end callus over for a few days and drop it right into soil. Do not water for another week or so.

      Well their roots tend to grow outward instead of deep. they do enjoy being on the cramped side rather than too much space. Have you pulled it out to see if the roots are bound? If they arent you may just need to give the roots a tidying and prop the leggy branch and stay sameish size. Then you could add a support and see if it will straighten up

    Hmmm…..this is kinda difficult to say but I don’t think this is normal growth pattern for any sedeveria. They are not a vining plant. Growth should be much more compact and have some red tones. I would prop all of the nice stem ends. But new props are going to need a lot more light to avoid the legginess. With the needed light they will color up and grow side pups. And stay more compact. My suggestion is to plant stem cuttings into some high grit succulent soil. Terracotta is my go planter material for young props. As for the bare stems, I would cut them down to a couple inches and see if they will grow multiple rosettes. I currently do not have any sedeveria. So I could be wrong. Hopefully someone else can comment on their personal experience. The pic is the growth I would expect from your sedeveria along with similar color. The pic is my echeveria pulidonis.
