Hey. So I have this little succulent here and I’m wondering… is he rootbound? Should I size up? He’s pretty tiny but yeah.

heck yeah he’s ready for a new pot! i’d only go one size up otherwise you risk the soil holding onto more water than the plant can manage and the roots could rot

Great! I’ll do that. Thank you.

deeeeeefinitely only size up one, i repotted my zebra too early and just had to move her down today due to root rot taking like half her roots 🫠

#### SadeB replied on 2024-06-05

Oh no. Hoping it recovers. They seem to be hardy.

Hey, Max! 1. Your dog is adorable. 2. Noticed you have one of your plants ID’d as a “sedum burrito”. Just wanted to let you know yours is actually sedum morganianum. Morganianum has more “banana-shaped” leaves versus burrito’s “bean-shaped” leaves. They’re extremely closely related and very often mislabeled in stores. If you’re new to that plant, fun fact: they’re incredibly easy to propagate if any of the leaves fall off. Best of luck with yours! This one’s mine for reference.

hi Adrian, thank you! and thanks for the tip, i really appreciate it! i thought it looked a little different than a regular burro, but it was unlabeled at the store so i just went with what my plant id app said. yes mine looks a lot like your’s, especially as it’s grown and started to hang more. good vibes to you n your cute puppy :)
