Looking for some advice with the Burroâs tail. Got the leaves in the fall to propagate, and this is how much growth I have several months later. I had tried keeping a couple of them in water to stimulate more root growth a couple months ago, but that did nothing (other than kill one) and now have repotted them into gravel about a week ago. Hoping this will help but if anyone has other suggestions please let me know, I really want these plants to work đ

Stuck trying to figure out what plant this is. Pictures keep saying itâs Jade, but it grows VERY quickly and just doesnât look much like the pictures? Got it from Costco, and once I put it into its own pot, it started growing like crazy with new leaves coming through every week.

Hi everyone. Can someone please tell me what is ailing my little succulent? It has spots all over the leaves. Thanks in advance!

This is the type of plant that makes me think âget a better cameraâ before posting. Iâm so proud of this one and its progress from the plastic IKEA 3-pack container last year. This is mostly all from indoor window east window sill and grow lights. In fact, it responded rapidly under a few purple/blue LED panels (the $15 variety).
Cheers.

Guys, I had the worst time with growing succulents outside in Florida and am deciding to grow them indoors. I had them out in the open for sun and they got sunburnt. The daily flash flooding gave most of them root rot. I moved them out of full sun and under my roof ledge so they could dry out but the damage was already done. I had to dig them up and ended up propagating them all. It was a disaster.
Here was my beautiful succulent garden before đ˘:

Found this little beauty broken off from its main parent. Had roots and all. I believe itâs an aeonium? But what kind? Kiwi, variegata, pink witch, mascaense, sweet tea?
Hot hot hot
Who has one of these? Full sun doesnât mean full sun in Arizona in July.

Cactus growing pretty fast. Should I repot in a larger one?

After randomly spamming a Copiapoa expert yesterday, Iâm ready to get some hot hot heat on this Cinerea (right) and what I believe is Copiapoa bridgesii. There is a lot of (surprise) mixed info on Copiapoa, and the intimidation factor for me is the mention of coastal conditions (western South American coast starting around Chile) and morning fog. Have you added ârecreate a foggy morningâ to your plant notes?
Note that asking about fog made that expert call on another expert to answer. The bottom line was âyeah, they light it bright.â Here we go.
I also said no more plants for a while, but a local shop had an anniversary event, and Copiapoa is an exception Iâve made. They are the only place Iâve found for Copiapoa, and I was saying a silent prayer as I drove across town on lunch. The shop also has no idea how boutique these guys are, and I ended up answering the clerkâs questions.

Hi! Does anyone know the most effective way to propagate a rainbow pincushion cactus? Mine is getting pretty out of hand.

Hi!! Iâve had this succulent for a couple of years now and i just noticed today that the stem has turned a black color. This mustâve just happened because during itâs last watering day the stem was green. Is it salvageable? Any suggestions?

Here is todayâs âSeriously?â statement & question:
Seriously?
They needed a different name for something similar.

Echeveria Black Prince

Hey! I know Iâve seen a girl here who has a corkscrew albuca. This was a plant on my list and I just got it! Planta is telling me to mist it which I didnât think was right so I googled it and Iâm getting mixed answers. Can anyone tell me light, watering and misting these from personal experience? Also Iâm planning on repotting in same size terracotta pot. Thanks!

Itâs July heat up in here, so I brought out a few who I believe can handle it - with a little acclimation. We have Brazil, Mexico and South Africa up on the shelf.
The four on the bottom havenât had full sun exposure in a while, but this inexpensive IKEA rack gives a nice buffer from mid day scorching. Plus, top and bottom are cool to the touch, which makes it my new unsung plant hero. You have to understand how many elaborate ways I had planned on trying to keep the murderous July/August sun and heat off my prime spot at my last place.
Note the âcastâ on Corpuscularia lehmannii. I guess itâs more of a girdle for support after so many splits. And it looks really plump and vibrant this evening. Yay, my plants survived me for one more day.

Help!! I repotted my dolphins and now this is happening Iâve only watered it once about two weeks ago. Can I save it? Or is it gone?

Hey yâall! I own this beautiful String Of Tears, but I feel like itâs unhealthy. The leaves fall off very often, and they seem to be discolored and the vines are dying. I recently repotted it from the container i bought it in, but the soil crumbled on my hands and the vines were unstable so I donât think I repotted it correctly. Does anyone have any tips?

New little succulent garden to keep my other succulent company! I have no idea what kind they are, they were gifted by a friend.
