Hi all! A few questions about my succulent: 1. Does anyone know what it is? I’ve had for about a year now and I’m still not sure! 2. I chopped off the top a couple months ago because I had it under a grow light which caused it to get lanky, and now it’s had new growth over there, I’m just not sure what I should do with it? 3.I plucked out a couple drying leaves at the bottom most layer just before taking these pictures, will the bottom layer continue to die out as the top continues to grow? 4. It’s very easy for me to pull the plant and its ball of dirt out of the soil, I have to be super careful not to whenever I’m plucking out dead leaves. So this tells me it still hasn’t rooted itself properly into the soil. I last repotted it 6 months ago or so. Is this cause for concern?

So I have a Christmas cactus and ever since I’ve had it it has been pretty brown and had like one flower on it. Anybody know what I’m doing wrong or can you give me tips on how to take care of it?

I rescued this plant recently, it was just growing without any care it seems. I only have a tiny burros tail that I took from a cutting, it constantly sheds. This guy didn’t lose many in the drive, it was that bare when I found it. What’s the best way to go about this? Can I root the stems once I give this guy a good haircut? Should I cut only a few now and then again in a couple weeks? Do I have to cut high up? Slightly attached to this guy for sentimental reasons or id wing it. I just see so many beautiful ones and want to make sure I get it looking good.

Can anyone tell me why my haworthia keeps losing leaves? I have her in well-draining succulent soil and only water when it’s dry to the bottom. It seems she loses one leaf every two weeks; they just shrivel and die. I just checked her roots and they are healthy. Does she need a smaller container? Is she sensitive to drafts?? I really want her to thrive and would appreciate any help!

I’m slowly attempting to fill in the evolutionary breadth of the S. Africa “splitting” plants. My mind continues to remain blown as I scan through the subtleties of all these leaves. And then I set them next to Mexican Echeveria and, armed with only street science, spout off about a leaf traveling across oceans to create a culture. I’ll talk more about the Karoo Rose at a later date - it is the reason for this accidental plant binge.

Hello! Can you help me identify these succulent leaves so I can see how to propagate them (or if it’s not possible)? These are found leaves from the floor of the store succulent section (not stolen cuttings). I know some of them are in bad shape, I’m okay with experimenting with a high potential rate of failure 😊 Feel free to share you favorite succulent propagation method as well - it’ll be my first try! 😄 Thank you!

Hi guys, I posted in another group but didn’t get an ID. Does anyone know what variety of Jade this is? It’s got small white hairs (especially on the underside) giving it a silver shine. Thank you :-)

Both my mom and I have had trouble with this type of succulent. It drops leaves every day, I repotted it to see if that was the problem and it just keeps dropping leaves. Any tips on saving it?

hey so i think i positively identified my cactus as Eriosyce subgibbosa. I was thinking that or Neporteria subgibbosa, which isn’t on planta. Planta told me it was a nipple plant?? i think because she isn’t as black as she used to be 🥲which brings my question, will more intense light make her go back to being black?

what would you guys suggest for propagating string of pearls?

I have been wanting to start playing with cacti grafting, do you guys have any suggestions for plants that work well for grafting? I have a medium size barrel cactus, I didn’t think that would work too well though. Thanks!

this succulent has been through hell & back MANY times (due to my own negligence). i still can’t believe how persistent this disaster of a plant has been after being in the worst condition it’s been in just a couple months ago! pictured jan 27 (before the rescue efforts) & mar 31! hoping to keep her happy this time around 🌿

Let’s see how they root! Super excited!!

Is anyone able to help me identify this? I found it at the store and thought it was unique and couldn’t pass it up but now I am having trouble identifying it!

I bought this variety of succulents from a local Target and would love some help identifying them! I have my guesses but curious what other people think/if you know what they are. Trying to see if my identification app is accurate or not. Also, do they look healthy? I’ve had them under a grow light for about a week now because I was afraid they weren’t getting enough sun. Would love any and all help, information or tips on how to care for them. Thank you!
