Asking for a friend because succulents aren’t my area of expertise. My friend has the mother plant and is very fond of it. She took a cutting for her daughter, let it callous over and then planted it. Does it look OK? Do you have any advice? The cutting lives with her daughter and they want to help it thrive. TIA!

My rosey looks awful brown and patchy ? She had a artificial fake flower on her and I carefully removed it with tweezers and I water her every 2 weeks. Is this normal for a old lady cactus?
The main stem of my Thanksgiving cactus is breaking off. I switched from slow release stick fertilizer to liquid fertilizer over the summer so there’s been a lot of new growth lately. Maybe it’s be a weight problem? Is it possible to save the plant? If so, how?
would it be okay to leave the baby jade growing to the side of the plant or would it be best to separate and replant? if so, any tips for replanting to make sure the main plant doesn’t get damaged? I’ve had this plant for years so it is making me nervous 😅
Hi any advice for my little buddy?
I propagated this succulent a few weeks ago after I learned why it was stretching and etoilated. Any advice to help it along? About a month and a half ago I thought the leaves were dying, so I put them in a different bigger pot outside. I wanted to see if anything happened then half forgot about them. So today I found that a couple have started growing and I moved them to a more specific pot. Any advice here is welcome, I also have plant food but have not used it on these.
Okay, Winter. I see you.
Does this look like it's getting enough sun? It started getting those long stick like things coming off it and I'm not sure what they are unless they're under developed leaves.
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!
I stole the succulent peices and my Lithops are blooming!!
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.
Please help identify? I was gifted this. (Needs to be attached to stick or it doesnt stand up)
I'm very new to plants, but I've been attempting to propagate a few ghost plant leaves. does everything look alright? any advice? sorry if the picture isn't good, I can add more angles if need be
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!
I wanted to join the group to share the planter I bought for my aloe. Look how cute it issss.
