This poor gymno is sick. it's collapsed in on itself. does not seem to be fungus. Has not grown any roots. I don't think it is dead yet but i don't have much hope.

I rescued this false Christmas Cactus from a relative who passed. I think she has experienced some underwatering and neglect because her root ball was very tiny with stringier roots. I cut off a decent amount of growth (not seen in photo) and repotted her into a soil mix with a high pearlite content. She is in indirect light where my thanksgiving cactus is thriving. Anything else you recommend? Do you think she is viable?

Is she okay? I’ve never had succulents before, this is my first one. I thought all of this growth was good but planta said she looked sick, wouldn’t tell me what was wrong unless I bought the subscription though….

I woke up and found these two newbies popping out from the center! 🤩 Flowers or babies? Also- I know it’s “normal” for petals (?) to fall off, and mine have done that from the bottom over time. Is the dry straw-like stuff ok? Thanks!

I received and planted a couple of new Peruvian Apple Cactus that I got from Rock Mountain Orchards on Etsy. I’m thrilled and excited to watch them grow! 🌵

I just bought this a couple of weeks ago and there's already three new flower branches. Love this plant!

Any ideas about how to help my plant? For a little background, I moved two months ago and this one gradually started dropping shriveled lower leaves. Last week, the middle part of the stem weakened and broke. I’ve pruned this plant before so I cut above the break, let the cut scab for two days, then started misting with water. The shriveling on the stem just keeps spreading and two more leaves have fallen. I’ve never seen anything like this before. What’s causing it? And is there anything I can do?

Does anyone know about white Stenocereus Beneckei? I've seen them in green and white and I'm not sure if they start green and then turn white or come in two colors.

I need help. I gave it too much water and didn’t realize at the time, and now I’m sure the roots are rotting. I’ve noticed that there’s a lot of little fruit fly looking bugs around it. Also, it’s been drooping and the leaves have been falling. My mom kinda buried it in the soil so it wouldn’t droop anymore (idk if that should’ve been done or not). I don’t really know how to take care of this plant. Is it too late now to fix? What should I do?

Hello! I’m once again looking for some guidance. My buddy here has some stems that have shriveled up. They still feel strong when I touch them however and the smaller stems growing next to the main body are new. Do I have anything to worry about? I just moved them to a new window with better sunlight recently. 🌱🪴

Is it normal for Snake Plants propagated from a cutting in perlite to grow so slowly? My Baby Nagini has taken 11 months to get to this point.

I picked these up yesterday on a mission to save some plants. Menards was drowning them lol anyways I’m not too familiar with cacti and succulents. How do I care for these? They’ll be repotted today

This is Doubting Thomas! I called him that as I bought him December 2024 full of tiny buds which all fell off when I got him home. Then as I looked him up I realised he wasn’t a Christmas cactus at all. He was either an Easter or Thanksgiving cactus! So I spent all this year carefully watering, feeding and misting him wondering if he would ever flower. Look how he has rewarded me - awe and to think i ever doubted him!

Does anyone know what this beauty is? It used to grow outside my old workplace in W.A (Aus), always wanted to steal some now I’m kicking myself I didn’t because they got rid of it all 😭 It would flower in the summer, only when it was rainy or stormy though 💚

Happy thanksgiving everyone! I recently got this plant from a greenhouse and it came home with mealybugs, at least that’s what I think they are. Anyone have any tips? I believe it is an elephant bush, but there was no classification on the original pot.

Julio Hybrid. Is he not getting enough light? Something has changed, but the season has also. Just seems like the ends are maybe etiolating.
