So my Shrek ears are in a 4-inch pot they are 7 in tall and I think about 8 in wide and it feels like I should transplant it to a bigger pot I can't tell because of the kind of pot it's in if the roots are coming out the bottom or not and it seems super happy so I don't want to upset it either so any thoughts? 🤷♀️🙏🪴💛 I have a million plant questions today
Fiancé and I are loving this app. We used the diagnosed feature and discovered we overwatered the poor thing but it’s still pretty. It’s hanging on lol
I saw the plant in the white pot last month at a local nursery. The price was $129, and I passed because that is $100 more than I've paid for any plant; part of the fun of plants for me is the challenge of waiting and seeking. I picked this new one up last night after a day of debating because it's so much plant. To manage, I'm going to split it across 2-4 pots. Wishlist item complete for $29. Yeah, Home Depot.
I bought this cactus today, it's labeled as Torch cactus, trichocereus grandiflorus. Planta didn't have that species in the database. Made me wonder if the big box nursery mislabeled it? What do you all think?
Meet Spikey, my 1-1/2 years old Bishop's Cap (with spike). He gave me his first gorgeous flower ❤️
Currently trying to get this guy to root, thought it looked funny in this cup
First pic of the Easter cactus 🥰 we’re new plant parents and excited for the new lifestyle. I also have a snake and aloe plant 🥰 have fun everyone 🙌🙌
I was called this was a mystic lilac echeveria, but there is no such play out as far as I can tell LOL any thoughts? It's got green yellow pink purple and blue colors on it, any thoughts? 💛🤔🧐🤷♀️🙏
Jade plant ‘Gollum’ I love the way he looks in the orange pot
Euphorbia horrida is this plant I bought at Home Depot yes they had euphorbia’s! But look how happy she is she is spitting out flowers out of every pup.
New to the cactus world and I just got this one today. I was told it’s a Starfish cactus but Google says it’s a drooping prickly pear. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
This grrlll is really making me wait 😭
i NEEDED to share this gorg mermaid tail found on FB marketplace🤗
I was afraid the mother plant would die so here is my first Echeveria propagation. Actually my first propagation of a plant ever.
Not sure if this makes me a “good or bad” caretaker 🤣. But wanted to share cause I think this is fascinating. So as the weather heated up and the sun got brighter I guess, I noticed this plant (fairy washboard I believe) and also another one with not as good of pics (Haworthiopsis venosa) got sunburned. Or maybe this was happening for a bit and it finally dawned on me it’s sun burn. But what I want to share is that I moved them out on Sunday. So 4 days later and they are already greening up. It was really cool to watch the transition. And for the fairy washboard it just happened super fast. One day it was that red brown color and the next day, green. It also looks more plump and healthy. I’m not really clear on if sun burn is bad for all succulents I’ve heard some don’t mind it. But this plant definitely looks healthier with a few days out of direct sun. 😅
I have a lot of succulents but have trouble knowing when to water these two. One is a euphorbia cristata and the other is a fairy castle cactus. With most succulents you can tell by touch or feel when to water but these I need to tell by looking. I try to be aware of how plump they are or not, but still not sure how far to let them go. Does anyone have some suggestions knowing when these guys need to be watered. I use Planta of course but use it as a guide only.
a while back more poor cactus turned all brown i was watering it everyday (i learned from my mistakes) and i believe i drowned it, it has this brown colour but has become more green over time, which seemed odd to me, those flowers growing from the top have definitely grown in the last few weeks, is it possible for it to regenerate or was it just not quite dead in the first place? ill have a picture now and when it was its healthiest, this is my first cactus so any help or advice is greatly appreciated
This poor thing is about 4 years old. It was recently moved from my mom’s office to mine. She’s not able to take care of them, so she asked me to. It did lose some stalks during the move. I usually kill plants and I’m afraid this one is my next victim. The soil is dry. I mist and water when the app says to. It’s in our waiting room that is mostly windows and it’s about 7 feet away from the window. I moved it to take better pictures. It lives at our coffee station. How do I save the yellowing ones from my murderous ways?
Those of you who saw my post about my dominos cactus blooming for the first time ever…I’m proud to say that yesterday was the day! One full week from bud to bloom and it wilted by 7pm last night. I got pictures around 6am, so I think I was pretty close to the peak bloom. Does anyone know how often this happens? I tried doing some research but couldn’t find a definitive answer. There’s another bud started that I’m not sure if it will open again this year or if it will wait like the last one did.
Yay I got my first succulent I’m so excited to see how it does, any tips on what to look for when it needs water?
