I recently inherited a couple Christmas cactus from my grandma, and there’s a bunch of white stuff on some of the segments. Is this something I should try to clean off, or it’s just how the plant looks now?

So I have these two remaining little succulents that are still alive from a larger succulent garden; the rest have died off and I’ve honestly just been neglecting it since. Would love to keep these ones alive though if I can. How should I go about propagating or replanting these? The soil has not been watered in several months and is incredibly dry, so is callusing even necessary? Can they grow in water? Any help is much appreciated!!

What should I do with this little guy? I've been smiling at his funny pose instead of chopping etc. He sits on my west facing windowsill (UK)

Has anyone ever tried propagating Kalanchoe in water? I know succulents are usually propped in soil but I’m curious to see it in water.

just dropped my first plant in 2 years 😭 hopefully I'll be able to propagate at least the one with the node

i planted these pups (haworthia savanna i believe?) a weekish ago and they look all yellowish and dry, i watered the soil a little before i planted them but should i water them again? im using this plant light thats on 12 hrs a day and it was in my bathroom for a few days before i realized its probably way too humid for them in there when i shower and stuff and just took them out last night if anyone had any idea how to help i would really appreciate it :>

Can you propagate a haworthia with one of the broken stems or whatever they are like one of the big things came off a couple of them broke 😩🤦‍♀️ and I'm hoping somehow I can propagate from them

I just repotted all of these. How long should I wait until they are okay to water?

How long should I let these sit to seal off before putting in soil?

Made this very cool succulent arrangement copying a local nursery that sells them this way! 😍🥹

I was so afraid my Scarlet Hedgehog wasn’t going to come back after winter. I think we may be okay!

I wonder if this is a couple babies growing on my red shark tooth pagoda, or if this is how the plant grows it's really hard for me to tell me what the adult one looks like with this one's still a baby self🧐 I love rare plants

Is my snake plant ready to be repotted? Or how do I know when it needs a bigger pot?

Hoping to get some advice on what my poor guy needs. Picked him up with a bunch of other succulents a few weeks ago, and noticed it’s leaves were somewhat pale and yellowish, with a few of their edges browning. He’s been repotted in my own succulent mixture that very well draining, and is under grow lights 12+ hours a day, and rotated around frequently. I watered him for the first time after his repotting (over a month ago) a couple days ago after assuring his soil was dry. He looks somehow better and worse than when I first got him. Some of the leaves are more more green and plump, but some of the pale yellow leaves have lost even more of their green pigmentation. Since watering a few days ago I noticed a several leaves have fallen off on their own, some of them wrinkly and green, some of them the pale yellow leaves. The upper leaves on the plant seem secure and plump, but some of the leaves on the lower plant are wrinkles and fall off if bumped. I just want to know if there is anything else I can do to make him happy, and if anyone has advice on why there may be some leaf shedding plus some of those stubborn pale leaves. Photos include two different angles of the plant currently, and some of the leaves it has shed off.

Two questions~ Listed in order of priority. Plant identity: Echeveria Pulvinata Ruby Pruning question: This little buddy has grown a lot since I brought him home (see baby pic). I feel like I should prune him back to shape him, as he is rather leggy. I have not had a succulent with this growth pattern before & am hesitant to chop him. I did see a post today where someone chopped theirs, so that gives me a little more confidence. However, I have some other questions. Can I propagate what I remove? I usually propagate my succulents, but as I mentioned, my other succulents don’t have branches like this one. Color/nutrient/fertilizer question: Where did the ruby go? I identified this plant as an Echeveria Pulvinata Ruby when I purchased him last year. However, the “ruby” on his leaves quickly went away (see baby pic for comparison). I water with filtered water (altho it is hard water where I live); he lives in my eastern facing kitchen (lots of sunlight; direct in the mornings, bright the rest of the day). He has bloomed twice since living with me & grown a lot. So to me, this fuzzy Echeveria seems happy, but I am at a loss as to why his leaves are only green now. I usually assume this is like the melanin in our skin & becomes deeper with sun exposure, but he gets quite a lot of sunshine… Is he lacking some nutrient? Thanks!
