Saw these on a walk recently and I have been obsessed with them since. I think the succulents are related to the invasive “ice plant” highway succulent grass you find all over the California coastline. I’ve never seen such a full bush 😃

I’m having to grow all my succulents in a cabinet this year because of lack of sunlight at my current apartment, and my lithops are pretty thrown off by the whole situation. I lost one (the sunken one) I’ve been afraid to unpot everybody to remove, but the rest seem to be doing alright. Two of the dorothea(?) didn’t split at all this year. At some point I plan to separate by species because some definitely seem to want water more than others.

Ok it didn't exactly do anything crazy, but it was blooming like we had never seen before this last November! Absolutely gorgeous!

Hello! I posted a few days ago on !houseplants@mander.xyz and one of the comments mentioned there was this succulent-specific community so I figured I would post here as well! So for a bit of background I have a black thumb, I've tried caring for plants in the past and they always seem to die on me. I'm trying to change this! I bought a handful of succulents and am trying to figure out how to keep them alive. Any advice is welcome!

The succulents: dwarf jade, panda plant, echeveria elegans, split rock, and there's one more that I'm having trouble identifying so if anyone recognizes it please let me know! It's the spiky one.

I saved this plant from my office 6 months ago because it had nearly no leaves, and now she's green and growing in a unique way. If this is what healthy looks like, it's all good with me.

I really need to stop buying every succulent I find cute. I am quickly running out of space, and in winter I might have to sleep outside so that all my plant buddies can stay indoors...

These beauties were there, just waiting for me to take them home, so I did :) Got a really nice planter (not pictured) too - today's a good day!

When some of my succulents stretch over the winter, I need to repot them into lil' dinky pots so they can start fresh! Yes, I know I need to get a grow light 🙄

This shoot grew over the past week and the flowers started to open today. I'm super excited! Bonus pic of a pup I pulled off last season.

I've had these for a year or so.

They are hanging out in recycled salsa containers for now but Im starting to think I should repot them?
