Hello! I’ve had this snake plant for about 6 months now, and it’s been doing very well until just recently—it’s leaning over and has a few brown/dry patches on the leaves. It’s been inside for a few months since it’s too cold outside, and it’s about 5 feet from a window. Is there anything I can do to prevent the leaning or should I just chop and prop the wonky ones? Also, is there anything I can do to prevent the crazy leggy growth on the littler succs? There wasn’t any info on the tag but it looks like Bear’s Paw, Ghost Echeveria, Mother of Thousands, Elephant Bush, and Aloe Vera. Any tips are appreciated 🤍

I believe this is a Opuntia humifusa. I live in Iowa where prickly pear are not hardy, so I thought. A couple years ago I was out for a walk and I saw one growing outdoors. I was surprised. It has grown in that spot for over 10 years. Recently while out for a walk I saw that it had lost a pad onto the sidewalk so of course I picked it up. This was about 6 weeks ago and it had already started getting cold. The little pad was sad looking in a little purple. I let it dry for a couple days and then planted it. I'm hoping it will take root. I have another prickly pear that's doing well but I don't know the specific variety I'll add a picture of it maybe you can tell me. Also any pointers about succeeding with this new arrival would be welcome.

I think this is a pine cone cactus. I acquired a single "cone" from my son who got it from someone else. I stuck it in the soil and waited and waited and waited. Just when I was about to give up it came to life. Now it looks like this and last summer it really fattened up a lot. It finally seems to have enough roots to hold it up. Prior to last summer I had to prop it up all the time. If anyone knows anything more about this variety I'd be interested to hear it.

Can anyone help a girl out? This poor stapeliad is dying on me and I don’t know what to do! It has drainage, I’m not sure what wrong, has anyone else had this problem?

Hello everybody ☺️ my babies have recently been looking a bit droopy and I was wondering if anyone knew how to make their leaves grow upright and more plump towards the center if the plant again? Also, for the taller succulent, is there a way I can prune it so it grows more wide rather than tall?

How can I get this cactus to root after I pop it off? Also if your wondering why the top is off its because my cat chewed a hole in it. Its okay though 😃

Aren’t these amazing?!?! I’ve never seen them in bloom before! They’re not mine. I saw them walking around the Sutro Heights area of San Francisco

I’ve had this succulent for at least two years. It doesn’t seem to really be growing much and I’m wondering why the tips are brown

Came home last night to these two beautiful flowers that opened on my winter cactus. It's my first cactus, and so far it seems to be really happy 🥰
