Hi there! New-ish plant mom here! I got this echeveria back in August and when I did, it was really full and dark in colour. Then I went on vacation and my friend overwatered it terribly. A lot of the leaves fell off and I had to repot it because the soil was so wet. It’s now growing back and looks a lot better, but I have a few questions:
1. I’ve done some reading and I think I need a more shallow pot that is about 2 inches wider than the plant leaves. Is this right?
2. As you can see there’s a thick stem where the leaves used to grow out of below the leaves that currently exist. If I repot this, how much of that stem do I put below the soil? do I leave it as high as it is now?
3. There’s a little growth on the side that looks like a “pup” of “offshoot” can I clip this off and plant for propagation?
Thanks in advance plant gurus!! ♥️🌱🪴

Cactus community! Whats a fast growing cactus that can be bought in stores? Is a trichocereus cactus fast growing?

Sadly my succulent died
This is it before he died
His roots started rotting too and I couldn’t figure out how to save him so I just ended up throwing him out❤️🩹

Hi all,
I recently saved this plant from a green house and was wondering if if I could get tips on how to fix him up as the stems are looking very sad

Lots going on over here, including plants I forgot to add and put on a schedule oof.
Dark green is the new theme in cactus, and I’m super duper back on a mimicry vision. I even bought seeds - that aren’t Lithops, but that Micro Landscape Design shop sent seven baby Lithops, so there’s that. I believe I have near 30 of those at this point ack.

I’m having issues. One of my Graptosedum is loosing ALLLLLL of its leaves. They’re falling off on their own. Woke up to like 10+ leaves the last two days. It’s only one of them though and they all have the same soil and lighting conditions. Why is this??

HELP! DESPERATE!
This is GSPO. The only cacti to survive me for multiple years (going on 6 or 7?). He's lived in this fish tank forever without any problems but one of my last waterings did too much and I think there is mold. (Amazoned a real container to be here tomorrow)
QUESTION: what special things do I need to do before the repot? Alcohol or anything?
This cactus is my life.

I am pretty new to plant and I have a question about a cactus I bought. I got it from Walmart, and it has a very pretty flower on the top. I have seen on Instagram that the flower is fake and I should take it off. Is it harming my plant to stay on or would my plant be better off if I remove the flower?

I saved this guy from a client. I don’t know when it’s been watered last. I watched it crawl out of its pot over the last year lmao. WHAT DO I DO TO FIX THIS?
