This one was meant to be shoved in the ground as "landscaping." It exploded with growth for a few months, but started lagging. So, let's dig it up. The soil was like wet cement in the bottom six inches of the pot. I mixed in a bunch of shale, lava, clay, and a decent amount of the original soil. Note that I broke my scissors and had to use a saw - and that still took 20 minutes before I could wedge the plant.
Help! My mother in laws Jade Plant is in dire need of my attention and I don’t know where to start! I’m sure it shouldn’t have dangling branches but I’m reluctant to cut it as it’s 15 years old but if I have to I can chop prop and replant. I’ll defo repot it just as soon as I’ve got enough medium haha.
Uh oh! I think my monkey tail has mealy bugs. What do you guys use to get rid of them?
Anyone have an idea on what this plant might be? It’s definitely a succulent but I’ve had it for over 2 years now and while it’s cool with how much it’s grown(it was originally only a couple inches tall) I don’t remember what plant it actually is and want to make sure I’m caring for it correctly. Any ideas would be helpful🌱
This funky guy is one of my favorite succulents. He lives at my office under a grow light. Phyllobolus resurgens
Anyone know what kind of succulent this is? Planta said it’s a zebra plant but I have a zebra plant and this doesn’t look like it or have the white bumps on it
Coming out of dormancy!
What is happening to my dragon fruit cactus 🐉🍎🌵? Is it corking?
anyone know what this is?
Addendum to the last post due to having a "Hey, look where you are now!" moment.
Can you tell which of my four Euphorbia mammilaria is newest? I'll tell you that the green one is my favorite.
My succulent has a new growth. I need help. How can I do to reproduce them?. This is my first succulent. I've had since this spring.
Hi, my Christmas Cactus is dropping clades. Any tips would be appreciated. I water and mist once a week. Thanks
Okay. So. I feel like I know some of the answers I’m already going to get here already, but here goes… Ever since I got this little guy he’s been stretching and stretching and lost the red colouring. I KNOW that’s lack of sunlight. I put it in a south facing window for a while and it didn’t seem to help unfortunately. In the meantime it also got a lot of edema I think because I was afraid to water it too much so may have been too irregular. I have since moved to an apartment with no south windows :( it is currently under a very bright grow light that has been known to scorch my basil, but it’s only gotten more etoliated. Now, its leaves are really drooping down quite dramatically - is that from overwatering or just lack of sunlight? Some advice would be much appreciated! Note that this photo was before moving to the grow light.
This one has also been outside over the summer & it got a nice brownish sun stress color along with some new growth!
I’ve also been thinking of chopping this one back just bc I liked how it looked more as a shorty. I’ve never chopped a cacti tho so I’m curious as to whether I just chop & transplant directly into the medium? Any advice is appreciated.
The difference a summer outside can do 🤩🌵✨
My aloes.
She’s about 19 inches across, Doing great, has a little dehydration in the long limbs, but growing bigger! I have her in a big pot because, she wasn’t thriving in a small, congested space. I would love any help or suggestions? 🪴
Just made a shelf with my grandad for my succulents
