Ants keep invading my house to live in my succulent plants. How do I keep them out? I’ve repotted, tried cinnamon sprinkled around and even diatomaceous earth but the buggers keep coming inside. I live in the desert so it’s 120 in the summer. I think my plants will just die if I try to move them outside🥲 Cue the plant pic of my babies drowning in cinnamon and diatomaceous earth lol 😭
My aloe has a limpy leg should I chop the limpy part off or should I leave it? I’m not sure how to care for one
I said "holy ****" when I saw this one. It is huge, and photos aren't doing it justice. It came up on the receipt as "SUCCULENT -PINT" haha. I also had to grab some Lithops, but passed on the super mutant nelii (pictured).
Every year she gives me the prettiest fruit 😍 Huitzilopochtii- still can’t pronounce her name 😆
Hello! I got an easter cactus a years ago, and while my mom did take care of it for a few years, it's now been in my care since I moved to a bigger place. The problem is, even the years in college when my mom took care of it and since I've moved out, it's never flowered once. I've head some pieces of advice (like allegedly having it in a closet which seems risky?) that we had tried but didn't work. I was wondering if there was more I could do?
It seems like my bunny-ear cactus is really not doing well - is there a way to recover it after the “ears” have flopped over? Edit: my current picture didn’t upload the first time, sorry about that!
My Easter Cactus is blooming! Share your blooming pics with me.
If fertilizing with the little pellets which (says feeds for up to 6 mos) which option do I use, water or sticks? Its only those 2 options. Which option do you use?
Hi! I recently went to Home Depot and was looking at the gardening section and fell in love with the succulents. I was wondering if anybody on here could help me, I really want to get more into them but I want a low maintenance/easy one to take care of, I don’t care if I have to repot it or anything like that I just don’t know much about that either, also i would like for it to be an indoor one, but I still want to see it grow overtime and see it’s progress. Can anyone help me find what I’m looking for please!!! Thank you.
We are renovating gardens for a house we bought last June. One garden is parallel to the driveway and full sun. What sedums would people suggest for color, low height (less than twelve inches), and love to grow around landscaping rock. Thank you.
I’m new to lithops, and I just got them from the store about 2 months ago. I was afraid to do anything with them because I didn’t want to hurt them. I see that the stones are starting to split. I’m worried about how close they are together and how compact that soil is that they came with. Should I repot them and separate? Or don’t touch while they are shedding? Any advice?? Thank you!
Hey everyone, happy tuesday 🪴 Should I chop and prop the top part so that the roots are planted, and so that pups in this pot can grow?
Planta says my pepperomia likes moderate watering… not too much, not too little…🤔! Can anyone tell me what percentage of moisture I should look for on my moisture meter? I have found that the not too much… Etc, isn’t very helpful, at times. So, should someone know whether these plants tend to prefer medium water on the dryer side or medium water on the moisture, loving side, I would really appreciate that info. This plant has been having a really tough time, and I’m trying to figure out it’s little secrets .. TIA!
I'm wanting to get a good cactus and succulent soil mix, but I'm scared to order it because they all seem to have bad reviews about gnats. Is it safer to buy in store? Or does someone have a good recommendation?
this was so hard to capture, but my plant's leaves are sparkly? ahaha its like glitter ✨
My 1st terrarium🌳
Hello everyone! I just received a bunch of succulent cuttings that I’d love to grow, but I have no clue what they are 😂 I was wondering if anyone could help me identify the species and provide propagation tips? I was thinking the first picture might be some sort of pencil cactus, and that the middle two may just be variegated jade plants. Thank you so much 🤍
Hi! I was given a Christmas Cactus a few month ago and recently grew it to be big enough to get a new pot! It’s been growing but now I have this other leafy green plant in the pot and I can’t tell if it’s a weed or something else altogether. Any ideas?
PSA: if you're a dumb and don't put gloves on when repotting a cactus..... duct tape, really helps get those quills out 😆😰😢
Crown of thorns. I wasnt expecting these pinkish orange blooms
