Ms Aloe plant here seems to have a weak root system and therefore seems very wobbly. How do I help her strengthen her roots?

Oh hello there, little flower who chose the first cold and dreary October day to bloom. Beans’ brother, Gaucho, bloomed last week and really didn’t appreciate me swabbing the flower for seeds. Despite being attached to slow growers, these flowers were fast to bloom and continued to morph during the day (some petals elongated to the side, other bits reached for the sky). ps This plant makes 5 out of 5 wins for Mountain Crest Gardens. I highly recommend them.

Hi! Can someone please help me identify these plants? The first two I propagated after I found out how easy it is to do so with succulents. The second two are my mother plants I’m hoping I could bring some life back into. (I believe they are succulents) If anyone could recommend plant identifier apps without a pay wall that would be great too! Thank you!

Hello, I really need some advice with my Aloe. a client gave me Vera about a year ago and she’s been kind of abandoned unfortunately. I’m trying my best to bring her back to health now but I have no clue how. She has sprung back to life a lot more then she was but does she have too many leaves? ( I have no clue what to do if this is the case) All of the pictures I’m seeing on here only have about 6/7 sprouts but mine seem to be growing everywhere😂 any advice is appreciated. Thank you ☺️

Anyone know how I can revive this succulent. It fell out of its pot and after that it hasn’t looked to good.

Happy Sunday! I got this succulent from a mystery propagation box online and it was labeled as “Vera Higgins (Graptosedum)”. It’s doing really well and has a lot of roots so I decided on adding it to Planta. My problem is I don’t see it on the Planta catalog. Anyone know what option I should choose?

Hi! I’m new to plants and have no clue why the leaves are all starting to shrivel up and fall off. I don’t want to over water them bc I just got rid of mealy bug. Any advice?

Hello, I just got these succulents a few days ago I don’t think they are supposed to be all in the same pot, and I’m also not sure what kind they are. Any one have and tips on what I should do and what type they are? Thanks!

although my other two succulent babies died, i noticed this morning that my zig zag or fishbone cactus has a baby!! since mid June i’ve been watering it pretty sparingly since it’s in my bathroom which is a pretty humid place in my house but it has plenty natural indirect light! im sooo excited to see growth as this will be my first *successful* propagation 💚

UPDATE! After thinking about it all night, I decided to take out my Calandiva from her bigger pot, completely expose the roots to check for root rot (thankfully no signs of it), and then repot it into the only pot I had available with fresh dry soil. I made sure to gently pat the roots dry with a paper towel. Now I have her safely indoors in front of a North facing window (I have no windows that face south with a platform to set her on). I think I can save her! Her leaves are definitely not as droopy as last night :) Fingers crossed!! Side note: I 100% mean to put her back on the bigger pot once the soil in that one has dried. I would hate to waste so much soil.

Hello! Question: I repotted aloe last year and it has gotten huge. What should I do about the leaves that are so much that are lower than the pot and breaking at the tips? Do I need to repot in a bigger pot again? Thanks!
