Copiapoa Montana .. The root on this thing is insane , did a lil trim before the repot .. added skull calcium 🤘💀
Morning from the fam 🪴🌵🌱 40 in counting
I live in zone 7, I think. Arlington, WA. I just brought back several succulents and jade plants from my dad’s in Nice, CA. My step mom passed away last year and my dad wanted me to take most of them. Some of the jade were so root bound their roots were growing into the ground. I repotted them in good succulent soil and they are in my yard now. I usually put my potted succulent outside on summer and they do great. I’d love to put some in the ground but am not sure if they will do well. There’s no way I can bring all these in for winter though. These pictures are a small amount. I have some bunched together just for traveling purposes. I’ll repot those, but would love to plant them in the ground. Help…
Meet Noel, my new Candy Cane succulent!!! Love her coloring!

Saw this BEAUTIFUL set up at my local nursery and thought it’d share. Price of $115 wasn’t too pretty but 🤣

So I absolutely love my pincushion. It got unpotted after my spouse accidentally got pricked (they forgot it was in the window and were opening the curtains) and I set it back in its pot. I accidentally forgot to put more soil back in. Months later it was curved and awkward looking (I completely forgot due to having an insane work load taking up my time) and I got it in with more soil. I leaned it up against something hoping it would straighten out even though I had little hope after the experts on here say it would remain curved and silly looking. Now it’s standing straight up again and I’m curious why. Limpy isn’t limp anymore and I’m incredibly confused. 😂
Granite’s brother Rocky is doing well after his 2 tbsp drink…update: Just realized what is wrong with Granite! He recently absorbed his outer leaves (giving him a healthy drink that way), then I gave them both 2 tbsp of water…over doing what granite needed! Hope he survives…
Well plant fam…I’m unsure of Granite’s future! I had a Royal Flush split rock, Nettie, that ended her life…and it started this same way! Anything I can do to reverse it at this stage? He recently absorbed his outer leaves and the inner ones seemed extra happy! Then I gave only 2 tbsp of water at the base, as recommended by my digital assistant…Nettie’s demise is pictured in the comments.
Hello lovely C&S Circle! March 28th I created what I call my Italian Saucer bowl. I am concerned about the zebra plant. Where it was before wasn't good ans I thought that repotting and being sure to water ( now that I have Planta) ...I thought that it would regain it's green/white "spikes?" A couple improved, but as you see, not all. So, what do I do? Do I try as gentlely as possible to cut off the dead/damaged/stressed parts? I would really appreciate your help. I am flummoxed.
I need some advice please. There are gnats in my succulent plants. I finally bought some yellow strips and that seems to be helping catch them but they keep showing up. I am letting my plants dry out to try to kill any eggs that might be in the soil. Going on 3wks now. I also added some cinnamon on the top of the soil. I have not noticed them in other plants, mainly the succulents. They seem to have moved from my bathroom to my kitchen succulent plant now. Any other advice on how I can rid my home of gnats?
Made some new arrangements.
Took absolutely too long to move these guys out of the greenhouse. Should've done it a month ago.
I’m thankful there are strangers out there who will let me bother them with my prides and problems. Here are some of my prides. Problems to follow soon enough.
Did my camera get it right!? Any care tips? Already have a few Jade plants, of another variety, that are all doing well.
So…any Sand Rose parents out there!? I’m curious about mine growing some green above the pink!? Normal? Sickness? What’s going on…!?
