My tilantia flowered a few days ago. I got a bit curious about the process and just read that they flower once, a hermaphrodite flower, then they go into a cloning process and give birth to a genetically identical offspring that starts a new circle, grow, flower, clone and so on…very Foundation Trilogy-like 🤭

I found this leaf a couple of months ago and wasn’t sure what to make of it. I thought I’d let it rest on some succulents soil and whatever happens…been about 8 weeks more or less and to my surprise the tiniest of roots have found their way into the soil 😍 Any guess what it might be?

If anyone remembers my “I messed up” post from a couple months ago and by chance are curious for an update… Well, 36 of those oopsies have established roots and/or rosettes (several have already dropped their mother leaf), and there’s still over a dozen prop leaf cuttings waiting to decide if they’re going to wake up or die off. And no, before anyone asks, I don’t live in a shoe 🤭

Need help identifying! Planta and Google have been no help. It keeps coming back as a turtle vine, but it doesn’t match the pictures. Any help is appreciated!

Assuming these might be moonstone, but I found 3 succulent leaves on the ground and took them in for a chance to grow. Not sure what these 3 are

Does anyone have any advice / recommendations for a fertiliser for succulents and when I should fertilise my plants please? Would you recommend top or bottom watering? Does this change for younger plants / plants with puplets coming through? Most of my plants are succulents or semi-succulents. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Do to have any recommendations on cacti and succulent soil? I have two of them and I’m thinking of actually buying RosySoil.

My new kitchen window setup. Last year I mainly had succulents in the window, but most grew too big to fit here, sooooo...switched to adding a few cacti for this display.

Has anyone ever seen a zebra succulent do this? She’s still growing out the top/middle, as well as producing two pups on the bottom.

I flicked a stink bug off of him about a week ago and have now noticed this spot frome where the stink bug is. I don't know if I should leave it or cut the top off? I can't tell if it's just wound defense or a rot issue

Overwatering? I’ve always associated yellowing as overwatering, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what’s going wrong here. Possible root rot? How does one deal with root rot in cacti? Fernando is the one plant I have had the longest. I recall when he was just a tiny ball. Advice?

Cacti may look simple and unassuming, but their blooms are unexpectedly stunning—like a quiet plant saving all its drama for one perfect moment. Left - Spikey Bishop's Cap Right - Ballon Cactus
