What kind of succulent is this? They’re big! My mom gave them to me from her garden but she doesn’t know what they’re called and the AI gave up a lot of options.

Good morning and happy Saturday… I have had this dragon fruit for quite a while and didn’t really water it that often I know the seasons have changed and we are now into winter and I also changed its spot… Don’t know why it is turning kinda yellow and brown I don’t know if I am under watering it or over watering it. Any help would be great thank you so much.😊

Excuse the low quality picture. I am not home to help my mom take care of her plants, but she sent me this asking what could be wrong. It was obviously growing great in the summer heat and she has moved it inside due to the cold but transplanted it because it grew so much. She has it placed in a full sun area and says she doesnt overwater it. Does anyone know what the yellowing of the bottom half means and how to fix it?

My Mammillaria karwinskiana flowered a two months ago and recently it started growing the long white tuffs, they feel soft and feathery in the location where the flowers are. And now this bright, hard protuberance has appeared! I have been following Planta’s advice for care. I have watered and fertilized per their schedule. What is going on?? Is this a fruit? Whar are the white puffs??

Hello everyone!! I know this post is a bit late with it almost being Christmas/ Hanukah! (Happy holidays). But, during this time of year you are very likely to see “Christmas” cacti this time of year!! But, most of these Christmas cacti are NOT Christmas cacti at all! Most are actually Thanksgiving cacti. As a ✨pro✨ at Christmas cacti it drives me nuts to see a thanksgiving cactus on display labeled as a Christmas cacti. Don’t fall victim to this!!

A while back I over-fertilized a succulent of mine. Not sure how long ago exactly, but it’s been a fair amount of time. It’s been slowly dealing with leaf yellowing and leaf drop. I water in every two weeks and make sure the soil is dry. It gets beamed by sun in the morning and has a grow light the rest of the day. What can I do for it? Also, I used pumice as a top layer for the soil to hold him in place, However, after watering the plant, over time the pumice has become a bit red. Is that normal?

Hi, Can someone please tell me what this plant is? It’s unmarked when I bought it today. Looks like a Jade plant. Google Lens said Crassula which I think may be the same thing as a Jade but not sure.

My moon cactus is growing cray fast! And spouting several new limbs. Should I trim them? Let them keep going and add different support? What does it mean
