I went away on a trip and didn’t realize how much the sun had shifted and was no longer giving adequate light to my Echeveria. Both of them stretch way out and then one fell over. When I found it I realized the majority of the roots tore off when it tipped. It’s got about an inch of stalk with no leaves so I am wondering if I can just bury that part in the dirt and have it reroot or do I have to just pick off the leaves and start entirely new propagations?
It is now under a plant light for winter so hopefully it quits getting taller.

Mail day. I ordered these from Mountain Crest Gardens. The bright Haworthia and Lithops were bonus items because Halloween. This purchase started off with the Tephrocactus and went from there. Flowers that smell like carrion are in my future with this cutie Huernia thuretii. 👃🌸🤢

Have a variegated prickly pear here that on and off looks like this. Should I repot?

Should I repot my turtles? She’s starting to bald on half the pot. I’ve found a shallow terracotta pot (2” deep; 5” wide) that I want to put her in but she’s currently in a 2.5” nursery pot. She’s my fave so I wanna do right by her. She doesn’t hang (yet) she’s always on this table and I only pick her up gently to bottom water her.

What is this??
I repotted all my cacti in early August and all of them shot up, rather quickly, but I picked this one up and saw that at the bottom… could it be root bound. I don’t remember its roots looking like that…

I was thoroughly impressed with the root systems in these two so they both got an upgrade. I took a ton old leaves off too so hopefully we get a prettier rosette

Hello! I’ve never had much luck with succulents.. but I was feeling adventurous today and got «Boo! » a ghost plant!!! I combined and repotted them together! I watered and am crossing my fingers, nose and toes that he’ll bloom for me! How long does it usually take to see a bloom?
Thanks

I’ve had an indoor/outdoor test going on and have brought 2 Mammillarias inside. Hoping I’ve made the right decision. On top, Hahnianas, left inside under a grow light and the right one has been outside all year south facing. On the bottom, Bocasanas, left inside under a grow light and right outside all year east facing. Side note, neither Old Lady on top has ever flowered but the Powder Puff on the bottoms both have (left one flowers white).

My cereus cactus was rotting, I had to get it out the pot and waited couple of days to cut it. I cut it last night and as you see the cut was clean and green. Today look how it looks like.
Is that normal?

I’ve had this cactus for a few months and it’s about doubled in size since I brought it home! I found that the roots are starting to grow out the bottom of the nursery pot, I’m wondering if I should repot it now or wait until spring?

Hello!! I have a Christmas cactus :). I'm a newbie and didn't realized that the plan needed special care for it to bloom until last winter. I'm hoping to make it bloom this year.. After some research I'm a bit confused because most sources say different stuff. Do I have to please it in a dark or brighter zone? For how long?? Do I have to water it a bit more? I was also wondering for how long it would bloom..? I know they're a lot of questions, but is would be very helpful if anybody could help me please :)) !! Thank you!

So pretty!! 13 inches tip to tip. Only smells awful of rotten meat if I get my nose right in there. Beautiful and fuzzy!

Does anyone know what kind of cactus this is. The plant identifier isn’t accurate.

I think it can’t get bigger and then it does.

Hey! I have had this plant for a year now. Recently the bottom leaves have started to turn brown. Should I be concerned about the stems and roots? Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I've wanted one of these babies for a while now, and look who I found hanging out at my local grocery store!! She was the only one!! She lives in my bathroom where hopefully my husband won't notice I brought home another plant lmao
