I recently bought a burro’s tail/donkey tail and so far it’s looking good, but I killed my last one and I’d like to figure out what to avoid before I end up killing this one. My best guess as to what happened with the last was that I overwatered it and it wasn’t getting enough sun to dry the soil out between waterings, but any tips on how others keep theirs alive would be greatly appreciated! I’d like to get her big enough to put in a hanging planter if possible. I also have a few leaves that fell off in the repotting process so any tips on propagating these guys would be a big help. 😊

Hi succulent circle!! I am a brand new beginner plant/succulent mama, and I just got the echevaria from my local farmers market! I love the pot but in researching how to care for this succulent I found that ideally there should be more room for watering, drainage hole in the pot, etc. so, I wanted to come on here and ask the community if there are any tips for repotting this little guy, specifically what type of pot, how big/small it should be, watering tips, and any other helpful information! I look forward to learning more about this plant, thank yall!!!

After almost a year of dormancy basically, my Christmas cactus has finally started growing new leaves!! I’m so proud of her! 🥹 She’s also getting much fuller and hardy!

Hi all! I was gifted this beautiful aloe last summer by a neighbor and in the past few months she has tripled in size. Yesterday I found her flopped over. Her stalk was not cracked so I am assuming it is because she is top heavy. I recently repotted her because she was outgrowing her old pot. As you can see her top is much larger than her bottom. What is causing this?

my euphorbia white ghost hasn’t grown the entire time i’ve had it, i got it last september. does anyone have any tips on how to make it grow more. i have it directly in a west facing window (my highest light window) and i dont fertilize it (just cause i dont know much about that, but am open to it). it’s in a plastic pot and i haven’t repotted it since getting it, but checked today to see if it needed to and i dont.

Hi guys! I have this plant for the first time and I’m mot sure what happened to it. Is it trying to reproduce itself? I believe it happened overnight

Im still a complete newbie! But when adding my plants to this app, it asks how far from window, it’s about 15’ from the window so I’ve been putting the max but then thought, should I change it since they have lights? Also is there a way to set it to lights ‘yes’ under the Site so I don’t have to go in to each one every time? It’s a gloomy day, but generally they do get some very in direct sun light through the day from a few windows, and then in the evening more sun comes through. Please let me know any other app tips!! 💚 The large one in front of the cactus is getting moved and repotted today, I got him yesterday.

I have this extremely dark built in bookcase that I've been cleaning off and trying to figure out what to do with. I decided it would be perfect for some of my little cactus. Obviously going to need plant lights. Any recommendations? I have the stick on under shelf ones but I'm afraid they won't be bright enough.

I have this gorgeous succulent, but she has many tiny spider like bug that is crawling through her soil. I don’t know if these bugs are bad or good, I’m guessing they’re not good. Does anyone have any tips on how to repel them? I have a citronella plant and I put some of the oil on the outside of the pot. Is citronella ok to use on the actual plant? I could really use some help so all recommendations will be considered and helpful. Thank you so much.
