I bought a couple of new plants. This one is coming out of the dirt. Should I keep watering it normally or should I pack the dirt down? Also I have accidentally broken some of the leaves. Is it really hurting the plant? What should I do if I break another leaf?

I thrifted this awesome beat up old terracotta pot and drilled a hole in it. Gave it a new life and I love how it turned out! Best $2 of the month š„°

This plant is unrecognizable after a severe bug issue made me chop it to the nubs. That rich red color? Well, I dunno when that will be back haha.

Echinocactus grusonii var. albispinus.
I lost my mind when I saw this spectacular anomaly. I picked it up, stood away, went back, watched the Home Depot garden crew soak it, and then I went home.
The following day, I did the same thing. This plant is too intimidating, but Iām happy to have seen it. Good luck, Silver Barrel.
ps Iām attempting to sell some things, namely shirts with pics of cool plants I meet. Stay tuned for better designs š

I recently took a leaf off a couple of my succulents to propagate; I left them to callus for about 5 days and they looked healed over so I put them on top of some soil. Today theyāre brown on the ends.. is this a complete failure or is there a way theyāll bounce back and grow?

New here, and new to keeping plants alive, lolā¦
So I have 2 aloes, both were (are) in bad shape, one was abandoned at a house but I think is doing at least somewhat better⦠the other I got at a health store for free last week, it has quite a few dead leaves as I was told someone who has a farm of them just drops some off for ppl to take, so no telling how long it sat outside unattended/watered⦠and as of now I have yet to get it in the groundā¦
My backyard faces exactly west and the sun travels across the south, I am in Florida⦠we donāt have gutters so rain runoff is my nemesis right now⦠Iām not sure where to put these guys⦠both are well over growing their pots, so I figured it would be easier to put them in the ground, our yard really has no place for this⦠sorry, Iām not being of much help but this is no where near something Iām used to tackling, just thought maybe anyone had some helpful tidbits⦠or not?? Lol⦠just hoping to find a location that they can be happy in⦠I can take pics if that helps
The tagged plant is the big one from the health store, the other one is called an aloe arborescens to the best of my understanding

Does anyone have any recommendations for cacti and succulents that I can plant in my back yard? I have a small patch of dirt in front of my door and I would love to have my our little garden. Itās shaded during the afternoon but gets the evening sun.

I almost killed this snake plant when I was brand new to plants. Now almost a year later this baby forgave me and look at the growth!

Can anyone tell me what Iām doing wrong? I thought I was overwatering my burros tail because my leaves have been getting wrinkly and so I cut back on watering and they started to get plump again now they are wrinkled and more from the top are wrinkling too when they werenāt before

Does anyone know where can we get a Jade bonsai or a slightly bigger jade plant to create a bonsai, around Mundelein/ Vernon Hills area ? Or any good online options?

Saved 2 holiday cactuses from my MIL and repotted and turned it into 3 (she had them in a spare room and forgot about them) so Iām bringing them back to life !

I found this little guy and I have had him for about 2 months. Itās growing really well but it looks ugly the way itās potted. Any suggestions on what to do?

My paddle plant has gotten very squishy recently. Nothing has changed about her watering schedule, location, or pot. What should I do? Repot? Help!

This is my variation of succulents. Iāve had it for about a month and a half now and right when I got it, I didnāt realize that I needed to have it in the sun more and the leaves fell off of the one in the right of the picture. I really hope someone can help me get it back to its former glory. And yes, it is getting plenty of sun now and enough water.
