My Leafy Life
The death of a Moon Cactus.
I was disheartened to find Sunshine has died. ☹️ I've had him about a year longer than the average life span.
I was doing my weekly check on my plants since I have several that have pups. I also turn them 1/4 to a 1/2 turn. I noticed Sunshine was really wobbly in his soil so I was going to adjust the soil and press it a little to make him sturdy. It wasn't working and it caused me to look closer. The green graft is what died. I don't know if I'll get another but he was a great cactus.

Update! The flower stem? Stalk? (lol) is about a foot tall now! I’m still in disbelief that this little guy shot out a flower

Can someone help me identify these jades (or I what I assume are jades) neither the plant identification tool on planta or chat gpt could tell me and it has some odd growth that isn’t typical of a normal Jade, for example I pruned it because it was falling over which in hindsight I think it was supposed to do and it grew very straggly but grew a lot, the big one is the one I pruned and the small guy is the trimming that I replanted, the small one is more accurate to what it looked like at first. Thanks in advance!

Hey can anyone tell me what’s going on with me snake plant? Other than the strange spots she’s in excellent health. I was wondering if it might have gotten sunburn but she’s been in that same spot for over a year and loved it. I did move her Just in case and she doesn’t look as happy. I think she might be loosing a leaf in the last image. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Is my leaf cactus okay? It’s put out all of these long tendrils, one has a leaf shape at the end, but previously new leaves just looked like the old leaves but smaller. I repotted recently (not long before it started doing this) because it was looking very limp, and when I took it out of the pot, it was root bound.

Can someone explain to me what is happening to my Mandacaru plant ? I have had it for over two years now, and it has been growing rapidly during this time. However, ever since the plant accidentally fell over and a bump appeared on its stem, I have noticed a brown stain developing on its surface. About a year ago, I removed some of the brown spots using a clean knife, but the stain has continued to spread. I am really concerned about its health and wonder what steps I can take to help save it and restore its vitality.

Hi! I bought the most GORGEOUS cactus the other day, and the seller told me the name, but I've completely forgotten what they told me it was- I think it started with an s or a c?
Either way, I've named them Thimble :) (Not because they're a thimble cactus, I didn't even know that was a thing until trying to find out what cactus this is lol, I've just been sewing recently)
Edit: Just realized rereading this- I never said why I actually posted this 💀 I MEANT to ask what type of cactus this is loll, if anyone knows please help me out!

Hi, I need help identifying what are these yellow/brown spots on the tips of my aloe Vera plant. I am trying to keep it alive and healthy, but I am a newbie. It is also still in the nursery pot. Should I repot it? Please help and thank you! 😊

But why? She just dropped her leaves one day and croaked. Im so sad. I never even knew what type of succulent she truly was. I followed proper soil, light and and watering schedule, or so I thought. Planta didnt diagnose, so anyone know?

If you live in UK and want whimsy cover pots for you succulents or other small plants, visit M&S. Look at these absolutely beautiful cover pots I found at M&S I work at. I’m OBSESSED!!!

How do you set up a planta schedule for a planting with several plants? I am finally having success with succulents using the app (yay!) but I’m not sure how to list these new mixed pots I’ve made. Anyone have a system that works?

Does this succulent seem ok to ya’ll? To me it looks like it’s trying desperately to escape its pot. Also not quite the typical Fibonacci optics anymore since I bought her.
