These are my 4 Desert Rose plants that I have had for about 3 years. You can see that I have kept them alive but they have never thrived or blossomed. The 3 small pots sit in a south facing window and the larger one sits in an east facing window Can anyone give me any advice on growing these? I have been following Planta’s watering and fertilizing schedule

Hi!! So I got a Calandiva today at Trader Joe’s. Honestly it was an impulse buy and I really want to take care of it and see it thrive. I’ve read a bunch of articles and they all say that they bloom late winter and spring, and the flowers last around 4-6 weeks. But it’s the middle of summer and the flowers are still here…? Do I leave them alone? Should I be pruning them already? Any help is welcome :)

I noticed his stem is a dark green color! I looked it up and said it might be rot?! I don’t want my boy to die! I don’t water it more than once every 2-3 weeks? Or when the soil is dry! Should I get a bigger pot or maybe he needs more sun? His leaves have been naturally just falling off since I got him 3 months ago even tho they’re healthy :(

I love Echeveria blooms. They are tiny but lovely all the same. Should be a fun show

Does anyone know what kind of cactus this is. I’ve had it down as a mammillaria but so unsure. And will it ever grow babies? Can they even grow babies🤣

I got this climbing aloe a little over two years ago and it has never been repotted. When I got it it was close to 4 inches tall and it since has exploded to over 2 feet should I consider reporting or leave it be since it seems to be growing so well?

Does anyone know the name of this cactus, I believe it’s a Cereus Peruvianus Monstrose Apple Cactus. What do you when the plant is not in the Planta library?

This plumosa came in a 2” pot from Trader Joe’s. Literally no growth for six months, and I was sure it was dead. And then she went nuts after being in a East-facing window (morning sun for three hours, supplemented with a low key panel LED light).

I am shook! Two firsts today! My first succulent and my first time ordering from Etsy! I got my plants today, and until I fell in LOVE with the variegated string of hearts, I didn’t think I liked succulents (dont hate me)! The condition of these two babies (hearts and also a variegated string of pearls) is EXCELLENT! Beyond anything I even hoped for! Anyway, I came here to ask about this little guy, he was wrapped in paper with a sticker, like a gift, in the box with the other two. Is it a trinket or something I can grow/plant and if so what’s the best way to please it? (Told you I was new to succulents lol)

My prayer plant wasn’t very happy in its original pot. I repotted and I think it will do much better now but the one side is like this :( … any ideas on how I can help it? Should I remove the leaves that are drooping?

Would anyone know if my Christmas Cactus will bloom again? When I first purchased this pretty lady she had the red flowers, but they eventually fell off. This December will be my 2nd year with her and still no new blossoms😢.

Found these little babies at Aldi’s today. There were a few more varieties… but I didn’t want to go nuts as I’m leaving for vacation in a few days. Short and spiked has got some roots coming through the bottom. Any advice for these lil guys?

Repot yes or no? The one she is currently in has no drainage. I can poke drainage into this one. It’s a bit more shallow but I think it’s ok?

Just wanted to share a picture of one of my favorite cacti, this prickly pear. Not a very good picture because I didn’t have the energy to take it out of the window and it’s a little crowded. Lol.
