Hi everyone! I’m fairly new to gardening. I have a couple succulents and cactuses and I’m looking to repot. Some are starting to have roots growing from the bottom and some don’t have enough space. I also want them all together for easier watering and moving around. It won’t let me attach all the pictures but here’s some. I have soil, fertilizer, root booster, and pea pebbles. Any recommendation before I repot them ? I also posted a picture of where I plan on repotting them. The wood planter has a decent separation for drainage and that’s why I put the pebbles.

Rescue update! Took this guy from my mom’s house two and a half weeks ago. Leggy stem, dying leaves, no roots. Now cleaned up, in a pot that fits, and new roots are growing! I kill so many plants, it’s nice to save one for once!

Because no one - including me - can get enough of Lithops after learning that something like this exists in the world… Various sizes. The tiny ones are kind of a side note in this adventure - they were tossed in as a bonus in a seed pack. My Lithops advice to me a year ago would be look at photos of crusty but healthy Lithops in living in the wild. Keep that image in your head as your plant morphs into something not exactly what myriad advice suggests ha. Let’s see if I get blooms in a few months.

Can anyone help me identify what this cactus is? X

Can anyone name this? Planta isn’t conclusive.

Hey all! I have an odd question… long story short, I live in a tiny house so deciding where to put plants is difficult. So far I’ve been hanging most of my plants in macrame hangers on pullies to pull down closer to windows. Anyway, my question is since it’s a small space with many windows, is it a big deal if full sun plants aren’t in a south or southwest (I have southwest) windows? So far my plants seem to be doing ok, but wasn’t sure about their long term health if I put them in a north or east facing window.

Happy Friday from my cacti to yours!

Hello Everyone! This is my first post! I’m new to gardening. I inherited a variety of cactus at the house I moved into. They apparently had been neglected for quite awhile. I would love to bring them back to health if possible. I am attaching photos of the cactus that looks most poorly. I’m not sure what species it is exactly and what issue it is fighting? It appears to have areas with rot or scale maybe? It does have healthy looking new growths which gives me hope. Should I try to propagate the new growths or is the “mama” salvageable? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Have a wonderful day! - Nicole 🌵

My desert rose won’t flower or grow leaves on the middle part of the stems, but the tops. What else can I do?

Hello everyone! This is my first post and I’m new to the forums. Was just wondering if this new growth on my cactus will fill out or if it’ll stay looking like a stick?

(jade, the jade plant, has gotten longer sense i took this photo, she’s doing so well i’m so proud🥰)

I got these delivered the other day and absolutely love them but I need help trying to figure out what all these different ones are, any help would be great. I am a beginner and any tips would also be great.

When I propagate this Jade plant, should I give it away as a gift, or add it to my collection?
