This poor thing is about 4 years old. It was recently moved from my mom’s office to mine. She’s not able to take care of them, so she asked me to. It did lose some stalks during the move. I usually kill plants and I’m afraid this one is my next victim. The soil is dry. I mist and water when the app says to. It’s in our waiting room that is mostly windows and it’s about 7 feet away from the window. I moved it to take better pictures. It lives at our coffee station. How do I save the yellowing ones from my murderous ways?

    Keep it near the window. Succulents need a lot of light. Don’t listen to the app and stop spraying it. Get rid of all of the dead parts on the soil and on the stem I don’t know what is your watering schedule and how dense is the soil, but that’s another problem. For now, just give this plant as much light as you can and it will thank you;)

    It’s not dying! Succulents are pretty resilient. True pruning the pieces that look dead down. If a good leaf (or whatever they’re called for succulents) falls off, you can put the part that attached to the stalk down in the soil and it will sprout!
