This plant looks like someone starved a Mammillaria and then cast a spell to reanimate only the bones. From llifle: “Leuchtenbergia is a monotypic genus (having only a single species). However, despite its very different appearance it is closely related to Ferocactus and hybrids have been created between these two genera. This hybrid is known with the name Ferobergia.” I’m waiting a bit to add “var. thachythele,” but a really cool, discounted, rare supermarket find, nonetheless.

Hello! I was wondering where I should buy my first zebra plant and what would suit my situation the best. Here are some photos of the area that I have. Today is a really foggy day so the lighting isn't ideal but summer is close by so I'm sure they will do great with all the light.
I feel like Tom Hanks in Castaway every time I'm present for a plant doing positive stuff. Like, "I have made fire!" I have successfully been present and set up conditions to allow this plant with the big name to grow some roots and regenerate. These new leaves are popping up like crazy, and I can’t stop high-fiving myself and the plant. I’m pleased at this vision lol. New season, new head. 36-year-old Pachypodium lamerei (Madagascar Palm) y'all.
New to plant keeping. Can someone identify this little succulent for me? Just wanting a specific name. Thank you!
Any idea how to propagate this plant? I’m not sure what kind of succulent it is, I posted about it getting long a couple weeks ago from being in artificial light. So today, I just gave it a haircut (cut off the top of the plant that had gotten too long) and kept a couple of the clippings. They are now in a separate planter. Kind of under the soil, but I’m not sure if this is the right way to propagate the clippings. Any tips?
who else has an old man cactus? just got mine, so inlove with itđź«¶đź«¶
this may be a stupid question but my jade plant now has these mini ones - do i need to separate them at all to give them more space?
does anybody know why my devils backbone is doing this? I thought it might be due to overwatering but I don’t water it often at all
Hi I just started using this app. Anyone knows how to save my succulents? They were all from one single plant. I separated and repot repotted them. I used to put them in my bedroom with very limited sun and they are dying. I’m now putting them in my balcony. Thinking about getting some new soil.
Hi! This is my Kalanchoe and I just recently removed the dead blooms and leaves and I’m starting to notice the stems from where I cut the dead blooms off are turning yellow. I’m not sure if I should cut them down or what. I also have some yellow leaves with brown tips but their still green near the stem to. I’m not sure if I should cut those off as well. But along side all this I have lots of new growth so I’m very unsure with whats happening. Any advice would be great! Thank you!
So I got this variegated Jade yesterday. I rescued it from its soaking soil and repotted it into cactus mix and gave it just a slightly deeper pot. Should I remove the leaves that have brown on them? Or should I leave it alone to settle in first?
There’s a little friend growing from a loose leaf on my succulent. What would you do? The main plant has been dropping leaves but the main stem isn’t rotting and I couldn’t find any root problems. The top leaves on the main plant are also sorta bending. Is it trying to shield its stem from the nearby growlight?
hey!! should I remove the wrinkled/dry tipped pieces? also is this sunburn? i know this plant doesn’t like full sun because it burns easily.
hey all, I moved back in september from a fully south facing window to here; a south east facing window. I have some grow lights coming in today to put by the fairy garden pot, and on the left side by the lithops/donkey tails. any advice is welcome, I also have a radiator that my stand is up against, any advice on watering? I notice I have to do it way more frequently. I have an alocasia and bonsai tree which is what the humidifier is for, and as we can tell my pitcher plant has succumbed to the heat:( I loved her so much so if anyone has any tips on what I can do for my new one! I haven’t ordered yet so please give suggestions for species/different types, before I had a nepenthes alata, if that helps.
Does anyone know what kind of cactus this is? We got it a few weeks ago at our local garden but it didn’t say what type of cactus it is. There’s a ton new growth and we’re even getting a few flowers!
hi! is this guy getting too much light? hes pretty close to my grow light, which is on for maybe 10-12 hrs every day.
Hey everyone I was wondering if I should repot my Huernia zebrina? I bought it about 2 weeks ago and I don’t know if I should leave it or repot it.
Is that stalk going to flower? I got it less than a month ago and it didn't have. That stalk in the middle. I'm assuming it's a good thing.
some of my many donkey tail props that are growing nicely! 🪴
Getting a head start. All but four of them newly repotted and ready to rock.
