Hi! I potted these three together about two weeks ago. I have a soil mixture of sand, potting soil and perlite. It’s also topped with small rock. I left it outside on my deck but certainly NOT in the direct sunlight Today it was bone dry and one them as you see is curled under. I saturated it with water and bought it in. Is there anything else I can do. I want them to thrive.
What am I doing wrong? For the life of me I can’t keep succulents alive! This is my second go with all new plans and so far one is completely rotting and the other lost half it’s thing.. I’m watering when the app says about once every 2 weeks, they have a growth light (which I slowly got them use to.) I love the look of them but can’t keep them alive!! Why’s causing them to loose their petals? Or rot. It’s cactus soil, pot has drainage. Any advice would be great!
hey guys i have this succulent plant but i just need to know how to take care of this tad weird thing that is happening to it, its grown so much the last picture was when it first happened then now its like twice the size
Is something wrong with this guy?
I'm new to this group and have a question, are snake plants succulents?
I have this dude who is just exploding with new growth despite a battle with thrips. I'm almost sure they're gone now, but the destruction left is bad. How much can I cut off? And where should I cut it?
New addition to my Euphorbias. Hopefully picking up a lot more this weekend at the cactus and succulent show in St Louis.
Can someone identify either of these plants for me? Grew them from loose leaves and have no clue what they are! Assume one of them is a jade plant? Idk, help!
Our orbea decaisneana bloomed and gave us a dark velvety burgundy flower, facing downward (!) I didn’t know this cute sunny succulent would make such moody dark flowers 🖤
I was gifted this little guy (Stanley) at work and unsure of what to do with him. I think he’s a dog tail cactus, but he looks all droopy and sad. Anything I can do to help him out? Should I trim off the droopy skinny bits and propagate? Any and all feedback would be helpful!
Sometimes it takes looking at old (uh, one year old) pics to remind myself that things are actually happening. The one Haworthia grew a three-part stalk, and it's impossible to photograph ha. That is a Pampered Chef casserole dish with two holes drilled in the bottom.
I’ve had this guy for a little over a year and it was sharing a planter with a few friends but I recently repotted it into this plastic planter (temporarily). It started growing like crazy after that and I’m not sure what I should do. The stalk is really long and I thought it was sprouting flowers but now I think it’s more babies. Help!! (Arm is there to block neighbor’s cars)
Hi all. I wonder if anyone can help? I bought a baby rubber plant online, which arrived today along with this little guy as an unexpected free gift. Unfortunately, most of it had come out of its pot in transit, but I've tried to repot it as best I can and have watered to fix it in the soil. It seems to be lots of little separate rooted pieces, but hoping at least some of them will survive. Does anyone know what this is? It was labelled as 'mixed cactus'. Once I know what it is I will look up care tips and it can live with my other cacti. 😁
Does anyone know the name of this beauty?
This is the lone survivor of a trio I bought back when I had little experience and thought, “Succulents are easy.” After finally stabilizing it, I attempted to propagate three pups but none survived my renewed optimism. So, I took a vow of do no harm and left it alone for the past year. We’ve finally reached the point where it no longer whispers “Plant Slayer!” when I walk by. Attempting another pup propagation now… what could possibly go wrong?
Hey yall! I wanted to add a lil something to my cactus garden and placed a single strand of mezoo around the edge and now it’s completely taken over….i think its pretty and the cacti seem to be doing fine but im wondering if i should thin the mezoo out a lil for more room for the cacti to grow?
Growing like crazy
(Mostly) Shiny Haworthia party.
Hi! Newbie here. This is my string of dolphins, it’s turning brown at the roots and falling off. I’ve recently started using a grow light due to not a lot of sun exposure. Any thoughts on what to do? Thanks in advance.
Hi, I’m looking for advice on whether or not to chop and prop my gollum jade. She grew from a single cutting and was looking so cute, but now her stems are getting heavy and weighed down. I’m thinking I can separate her into 2-3 pieces and repot into a larger pot to have them grow more upright. Would it be super traumatic to chop her right at the base? Any advice would be appreciated, TIA!
