String of Pearls issue My string of pearls was growing like mad, but lately it has slowed down and many of the pearls have dried up. It's in succulent soil (my mix) and I've been careful not to over water, but I wonder if I've gone too far. Any ideas, oh great minds of Greg? #plantsmakepeoplehappy #stringofpearls #troubleshooting #help #succulentlove #whatthesuccwednesday

#bluechalksticks Leggy Blue Denali is now almost 2.5' tall 😬 can you prop the middle portion to grow a new crown when cutting leggy crowns? Also, this boy got full sun and still grew a gangster lean... 'Greg' says indirect light, everything I've read says all the direct light it can get. Also read that it loves full sun but to be kept cooler- which is why he came indoors 🤔 #propagationstation I live in N. GA so we have heat, humidity, and bright 🌞 if that helps 😊

Hey! Could someone give me some advice on how to take care of my raindrop vine? She’s small, and I water her often, but her ends are very dry and the drops fall off often. Any advice or tips?

Just beautiful. That’s all. Delicate asf. Don’t know how it will work out with a hack serial killer like myself.
