I've had this for 2 years. Been really slow growing and really haven't done much other than keep on a grow light 12hrs with its friends. A couple weeks ago I gave it a soak from the bottom. It looks like it's getting yellow and I'm concerned. Any ideas..

So my mum got me three succulents and I want them to not die but have no idea how to care for them. The species are Portulacaria afra, Sedum morganianum and Echeveria prolifica. I have some begonia/gloxinia potting soil (pH 5,5-6,5 if that helps) and sand. Would a mix of that work as a substrate or is there a better option? Also what about watering them. Right now the soiled is prettyyy dry, but I read that you only really gotta water them when the leaves get wrinkly. Also it's not very sunny in winter where I live and the temperature is going to reach -8°C soon, so is that too cold for them to be on the windowsill and do they need some special light or does any lamp work? Any help is appreciated.

Yes a plant in a snowglobe pot is cute.

NO ARTIFICIAL SNOW IS NOT A SUITABLE ALTERNATIVE TO POTTING MEDIUM

pardon my rant, i just finished cleaning up a Gasteria that was in a snowglobe pot for xmas. pot was fine but there was no soil just nasty fake snow. so please pardon my anger.

also i dont know much about gasteria, any tips would be apreciated

Top - identified by Google Lens as Echeveria Agavoides. Bottom left - identified by Google Lens as Graptoveria Pink Ruby. Bottom right - was labeled peperomia. Identified by Google Lens as Peperomia Asperula. Are these identifications correct?

Bought them yesterday, repotted today. They are on a shelf inside, next to a south-east window. Ambient temperature 16-19 degrees Celsius. Any tips?

I purchased these pre-potted from a local store. The (?) with each picture is from the ID suggested by the PictureThis app. I'm not positive they're correct. E.g. note that it suggested the same thing for #1 and #2, and I do not think they are the same plant. But then again I know absolutely nothing.

Love the frosted tips after a cold night. Only a mild freeze but the colours come out nicely.

I needed something small to plant my little succulents while they grow and we'll K Cups. They're the perfect little size and have worked well so far. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle for the win! We'll see how the journey goes with them.

does it look okay? seems like it needs to be trimmed or potted in a smaller pot? me and my boyfriend have one that looks a lot different any advice is welcomed :-)

my panda plant wasn’t getting enough light and was growing tall. i’ve since increased its light and it seems to be growing more normally on top instead of taller again, and the top parts now have grown aerial roots.

I know you can cut the plant and repot it to propagate but i’m not exactly sure how or where to cut, how long to wait, etc. Should I wait or would this be a good time to propagate and grow it with enough light this time around? the bottom part of the plant has definitely seen better days.

The only reason I'm considering one of these is because they are in stock locally. Has anyone used either or know even if they'll be suitable for most succulents?

My mom and I named her Bonnie after we bought her from home depot. I will be putting her in a different pot soon!

Hello! Im in arizona and would have thought these would be like any other succulent, pretend they don’t exist and water every so often. The one in the middle is fine but my two other potted ones are dying slowly. I have them in succulent soil blends and need them potted because I’m renting and they were like $40 each. Any suggestions?

Hey there, hoping to get some help with an ID on this cutting I was given.

Have lots of soil left over from a plant that was infected, can I reuse it for new babies?

Thank you!

Import regulations mean it is difficult to send plant material between certain countries.

Check for hard frosts overnight before posting your parcel!

Scammers will not be tolerated! If you have sent a plant and not heard from your sender, message the mods and we will take care of it. Anyone found to be scamming will be banned from the sub.

A few points:

• Please add your location. Many countries will have import restrictions. As a simple guide, within EU, okay. Within US, okay. EU to US or vice versa, not okay. Australia: complicated.
• Please try to keep the sales/trades to succulents. There is a list of sister subreddits in the sidebar should you want other plants.
• Think about trading seeds and pollen too. Growing from seed can be very rewarding and be a good way to expand your collection.
• Grow tips are highly encouraged when trading. Its nice to know what you're getting if you have never grown one before. Share your potting mediums and watering guides to help your receiver grow successfully!
• Do show us some photos of what you got!
• Have a quick check to see if there is a risk of frost overnight before sending the parcel.
• There are some tips of packaging succulents for shipping below. I've had people send me plants in egg cartons before. They work really well.
• If you have nothing to trade but would like some plants, people are often happy to send you plants for money or just the cost of postage and packaging.

Happy swapping!

3 of my succulents were perfect before i went to work last night, was looking today and now there’s dots on all 3 like this. Is it gnats? Humidity? Did it fall and i didn’t get told? Looking for a answer

I am thinking of getting a Aeonium Black Rose Tree to keep inside in a small pot. How easy is care for them? I literally know nothing about plants. Like less than nothing.

To give an idea on my climate and in case it matters. I live in Western New York. I keep my house in the mid 60s to low 70s throughout the year with forced air for heat and air conditioning in the summer.

How would I take care of it? Are they hard to take care of?

I’m not interested in any other plant at this time (I want the plant because it’s actually merch from a Broadway show).
