Tried to propagate these succulent leaves and no luck. I left them alone for 2 days to allow the ends to callus then put them in soil and misted it but they just look worse. I’m propagating the stem as well in the first one. I just moved them over to the other pot today but the stem on the right is also another propagation from the same plant. Any tips on how to get succulent leaves and stem to propagate. The other stem on the left in the second picture is the “mother plant” any tips on making sure she survives this? She was quite leggy (see last picture) so I figured a cut would be good here.

my euphorbia that i got 4 weeks ago hasn’t grown at all and i just want to make sure there’s nothing wrong. i gave it more stakes because it falls over and tilts very easy. i don’t do anything besides what planta tells me. he probably could use a spray down of neem oil but i will likely wait until his next watering. he came with all these marks and i want to make sure he doesn’t have a fungus. i just got the systemic granules and put them over all my plants and i’ll wait for next watering to push it into soil (finals season is making me a lazy plant parent)

Do I need to prune this back to about 4 to 6 inches? It’s fairly healthy but extremely floppy. I am not 100% sure of even what it is, as I get multiple answers from Planta.

Hi all! Need your help, please. I am a new plant mama and got this little beauty, but am unsure what the succulent in the middle is. Any ideas? The other two, Planta says are Zebra plants. That sounds right? I have no idea, and want to care for them properly. Thank you! 🫶

I was wondering what type of soil or whatnot yall use for cacti and succulents? I use the miracle gro cacti and succulent soil and water down miracle gro fertilizer. Ive seen mixed reviews on miracle gro and Ive also seen some people say to mix sand or peat in, but also that sand and peat holds water longer which then leads to root rot even with drainage holes. Also, when you first get a plant, do you kind of loosen the root ball before you plant it in a new pot or do you leave it in its shape from the stores plastic pot?

Ugh. Came home from work and noted my milk tree has a rooting base. Can it be saved? 😭

Can anyone tell me what this succulent is supposed to be? It looked awful when I picked it up a few weeks ago (very crispy, partially rotted, lots of dead leaves, etc). It’s looking a lot better with some water and some love, and I’ll be repotting it soon. It wasn’t marked, it just said “Simple Succulent” on the tag 🙄 I thought maybe a weird and/or unhealthy string of dolphins, but I’m not fully convinced?? Either way, pretty decent sized plant for $5 and a little bit of care! It’s perking right up and even has some nice new growth on it 🙂

Cactus seeds just germinated! No clue what they are, got them in a seed packet that said “mixed varieties”

I got this guy as a little baby and I'm proud of how happy he seems to be as he's my first plant. Butttt. Does he need a wider based pot? Im just shocked i haven't killed it to be honest.

So many blooms this year! 🌸🌵

What type of cactus is this? I don’t think Planta can identify it correctly because every time I google search I get something completely different. I keep getting Mammillaria spinosissima and Mammillaria Rhodantha and I don’t know if they’re the same? Some of the pictures to both look exactly like my cactus. Please help lol I’ve had her forever and can never get an ID

Please identify these for me 😊

Need help identifying the middle plant. Planta says tiger aloe but I am not convinced.

This was gifted to me recently. Mind helping me identify it? It seems like the plant child of gasteria and aloe. I'd like to know how to take better care of her... or them? Is it just a bunch a baby aloes? Idk! 🙃
