Is it normal for queen of the nights to grow their leaves this thin do they normally start thickening out or am I missing something to help their growth? I bought this at Walmart this past fall just before winter and it had a tag that read fern and was marked to five dollars. ( I knew it was a cactus and had to take it home ). All the long thick leaves are original all the new thinner growth is since it has been here since I believe the end of October.

Does this African violet have any hope? It’s my second attempt.

Medusa’s Head got a new planter today so her foliage can cascade down. I used a plastic pot to insert into the metal pot, hoping it won’t rust.

Hi all - first time I’ve successfully propagated baby Echeveria (yaay). Turns out they just needed neglect and time. Ok so what comes next? Will they root into the soil if I just leave them sitting on top, or will I eventually need to plant them proper?

My wife got this Eve’s Needle last summer, and left it in an area with very minimal light, leading to etiolation. I kidnapped it around November and have been giving it about 14 hours per day under a grow light (better grow light than in the photo..it was temporarily moved). Anyway…it’s growing nicely…and very dramatic (not always leaning over). My question is….is there a possibility that it will thicken over time, or is it doomed to be thin at the top? Hoping to have the entire stalk thicken so that it doesn’t lean from time to time (usually when moved to a new location).

Hi, I just checked the succulent that I’ve had for a while and found these, which look like burn marks. Still, I don’t understand what’s going on because all of the winter months I was trying to test out a light, a plant light, and it would become Lagi after a while cause I don’t think it was getting enough light. I moved it back to the original place. It was the windowsill that was south-facing, and I don’t water very often, as I follow the advice, and I’m checking it to water it. I see all of this, and it’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen, and I’m gonna attach a picture of the one next to it, which is your original mother plant, and it’s driving really well. I thought if I put it back to its original place, it would get better, but I don’t know. I’m scared. I’m really scared. I also added pictures of what it used to look like before winter, so I’m not sure whether I should chop it in half. I don’t know what to do. I’m so sad and scared. Edit: another thing to add is that I watered both plants at the same time, which is why the result is more shocking. The plant also hasn’t even come up, yet it’s in six days

The original stalk is discolored and the other branches were dying so I cut them off. Will it grow more or should I cut the remaining branch off and start over, it has ariel roots, and if so how do I do that.

I have this (what I thought was) aloe plant that I got from the discount section at Lowe’s. It seems to be growing tall but not necessarily leggy so i’m not sure it’s elongation. i was hoping i could get some suggestions on changing care so it’s not as tall or if I have the wrong plant and thats just how its supposed to be! Theres a lot of leaves broken off from how I got it, hasnt had any issues other than some sun burning since ive had it. It gets decent sunlight from a window and sometimes additional growlight.

Hello plant parents- A friend of mine asked for help with a succulent that was unhappy. When I got the plant, it was yellowing with new growth. I repotted it in new succulent soil, added some liquid fertilizer and gave it back to her owner. After a week, it looks even worse than before. I figure it’s stress from the repotting and removing the dying leaves. Any other suggestions would be helpful!

Hi everyone! I received a cutting of kalanchoe a while back and now its flowering! I’ve just been watering it from time to time until now, but are there best practices for taking care of it while its blooming? Also how long will it take to bloom? Im new to this plant so any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Hi all! So my boyfriend had gifted me a beautiful Valentine’s Day bouquet that came with a succulent! Upon arranging the bouquet, I noticed the succulent was on a stick. I pulled it off, and this is the bottom. There’s no roots. Can this pretty succulent be saved? Will it grow roots? I’d love any tips on how to make roots grow to let it survive 🙏💚
