I’ve had this for maybe 5 yrs and I’m not sure about that but I’ve only replanted once. Okay is it suppose to be looking this way I’m not sure. I do know it pokes the mess out of me

It does need a bigger pot 😅 terracota, shallow, pots are the best. Ideally, it should have an inch between the plant and the rim of the pot. I use gloves to repot mine, but yours is small enough that you could use some grilling thongs

Thank you, this was giving to me and I’m not strong on succulents, but I will get this in a better pot. I’m trying on this new territory
