First time taking care of a succulent. Are the petals supposed to look dry? When I researched it showed that the petals were really plump and green or whatever color they come in. I donât know if Iâm watering my plant enough or if this is normal. I watered my plant this Sunday and it does have slow fertilizer in the soil.

So hereâs an interesting find. I got this variety of succulent plants from a Trader Joeâs store about 3 weeks ago. Iâve used this app to identify each plant, which include: echeveria, ghost plant, jade plant, jade plant âhorn treeâ, ogre ears, greeneâs liveforever, and shooting star golden sedum. This totals to 7 different plants, which I got for $6. Now that I think about it, a pretty good deal. They all came planted together in one 6â terracotta pot. My question is, can I leave these plants together, or should I remove them and repot each one individually in their own separate pots? I want them to thrive and Iâm not sure if leaving them together would be the best option for them, even though they look really great together. Your input is appreciated! c:

Hey Planties! I have this cactus (not sure the specific species twas a gift) thatâs been slowing leaning over the past few months. It seems to be healthy, no rot in sight, but Iâve been pondering how I should repot it. I donât know if it likes to be leaning, or if I should go straight up with it. Lmk if yall have any advice, regardless im excited to repot!đđŒ

Poquito got a new pot đ„°! His sun burn hasnât gotten worse since having him inside with a grow light, we fertilized today, and heâs not dead so a win is a win đ. Louisiana sun was about to take him out before he had a chance to live. Canât wait to continue to turn my thumb green đđŸ

I found a plant!đ€Ł Planta said I had a gollum jade plant, and I remember buying it a year or two ago. But I donât remember the last time I saw it so I assumed it died last year over the several month stretch I was very sick. But I just found it!!đ„ł
I have several plants that Iâm not sure I own anymore but I also have several propagations from their leaves, so I am waiting until they are bigger to see which ones they are. But they are all grapetoveria or sedums (or some similar cross) so definitely not a jade. This gollum plant has been nagging me for an update for 11 months and I keep snoozing it. đŽ
I just realized this week that when I mindlessly water all the plants in the school room, I am watering two jade plants. The variegated one and another funny/stunted looking jade. Iâm always doing school with my kids as I do this, so Iâm never really paying attention to which plant. Just if it needs water. I finally registered I had that second jade up there and was really feeling crazy.đ€Ș I KNOW I didnât buy a traditional jade because as much as I wanted one, my mom had one that I was going to get a leaf from when it got bigger. She has decided to give it to me as she wasnât able to give it enough light and she knew I loved them.â€ïž But that is somewhere else. So where in the world did this jade come from?!đ€Ș
On a whim, I decided to scan it on Planta and every single scan came back gollum jade.đ€Ł It has much more normal looking leaves then I remember, but I guess itâs been hiding in plain site this whole time! Apparently Iâve been mindlessly caring for it for the last year!đ

Hey everyone! Does anyone have any tips for my succulent that is shriveling? I only water it when I get a reminder from Planta⊠But it isnât growing, now the leaves look like this! đ”đđȘŽđȘ·

Hi Friends! This is a Queen of the Night (Epiphyllum Oxypetalum). I brought it home from a green house around a month ago and itâs perked up quite a bit. Still in the nursery pot as I wanted to acclimate it. I watered it for the first time last week and Iâm noticing what looks like aerial roots growing from the longest leaves on the plant. Does anyone have experience with these that can advise what I can do to help? Iâm assuming itâs to help it grow taller, have you used a moss pole?
Or are these blooms?
Appreciate any guidance!

My Easter cactus is dying ;(. Anyone see anything obvious to help it?

How do setup plants in Planta when you have multiple in one pot? I have them added as separate plants currently but thatâs not really working with tasks happening on different days per plant. Should I start it as just one plant?

Hi all. I think this is a ripple jade. She had a lot of nice growth but about 10 leaves have dropped and now left with this. I donât think itâs been overwatered and has enough sun. Anyone have any ideas why it would drop so many leaves? Thank you!
