How to fertilize Andromischus Triflorus
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Andromischus Triflorus after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Is this normal growth? She started out with thick stems and fuller leaves but lately she’s been getting leggy. Is that normal or is there something I need to do to make her feel better? She looks healthy otherwise. Thanks!!!

Greg says this is either an ox tongue (91%) OR a pillow crinkle leaf plant (91%). Problem is, it looks like neither of those. Can anyone tell me who Mysterioso is? Thanks 😊 #PillowFeetCrinkleLeafPlant

Happy #FreshLeafFriday ! I’m sure there’s more than one of us, that had a long week, amirite!? 😳😆 I know I sure did lol. this Friday I thought I would show you guys the progress that my calico heart has made since I’ve gotten her. I know I talk about her all the time but she really is my favorite plant… (I hate to say that & make the other ones jealous! lol 😳) Amor is my favorite plant, because she’s a reminder of my hard work, & reaching the top five for the first time two months ago. It it was a very big deal to me, & Calico Hearts was on the very top of my #wishlist .✨ I waited about two months to repot, because I was so nervous to mess something up or make the plant go into a fit after evicting her from her original home 😬😆. She also had a baby with her, so that was especially exciting because that means TWO of my fave plant 🤭 I since have separated them & put them in their own pots. One is quite larger than the other but the small one is so dang cute. 🥹💕 I am using bonsai jack gritty mix, with some succulent soil & perlite. It seems to be responding well too the new mix, but dries out veryy quickly. All right lemme just stop rambling & show yall the plants 😳. The pictures are in order from the day I got her, to last night. She has grown so well, and surprised me with the rate of growth. I wanted to add the dates for reference. -1&2 October 13th. -3 October 26th -4 November 26th -5 November 30th #NewGrowth #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #Succulent #CalicoHearts #AndromischusTriflorus #HappyPlants #BonsaiSuccs #NewPotWhosThis #repotted #wishlistplant #BeforeAndAfter

I know it’s been a while! I’m fighting fungus knats & seasonal depression 😆🤭❄️ but I’m here to report good news! I have some happy growers in my oasis still, & im grateful as ever to see that I still have a green thumb and problem solving skills! Here’s what we have today…. -Calico hearts 🖤 so glad these have been doing good, I have since repotted her (& her baby that isn’t pictured yet) and they are both doing great, and have new growth. -2&3 Graptosedum California sunshine ☀️ these have been super easy ever since I got them and continue to put off new growth after any leaf drop. They are super resilient in my eyes and have even done well in the cold! - 4 Graptoveria opalina 🌈 super plump and healthy she’s also been super good to me all summer & even now. She’s so perfect 🥺 - 5 tiger jaws, even though he has some red mite looking things he is still puttingg off new growth and doing his best 🤞🏻😳 (don’t worry I willl be addressing the bug issue asap) and yes he has sun scars but he has managed to still look and grow his best. These plants all show me what resiliency can be, and remind me to keep going even when the sun isn’t shining in my world 🤞🏻🌱 I hope everyone is getting through the cold weather, (if you’re experiencing that, if not I greatly envy you 😆) #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #CalicoHearts #Graptoveria #Graptosedum #Faucaria #AndromischusTriflorus #HappyPlants #NewGrowth #PlantShelfie #wintergrowth #Succulents

baby calico hearts update 🌱 The leaves have grown bigger compared to the 3&4 photos from beginning of the month. It also is pushing out a new set. It’s so cute & tiny I’m glad she is growing, I moved her to my boyfriends to a south facing window, so she doesn’t have a grow light, which I was nervous about, but she seems to be doing alright. 🌱😊💚🪴 #HappyPlants #NewGrowth #SucculentLove #SucculentSquad #Succulents #CalicoHearts #Succulent #PlantAddict

Happy #WhatTheSuccWednesday guys 🪴🤗☀️ so glad it’s starting to warm up! I’m sure some of you are glad too! Wanted to share some planty updates today. 1. Got my VSOH planted in my new planter, and also got my baby #CalicoHearts planted in as well, it was time for an upsize. 💕 I only have one more spot left for my tiered planter! And then it’ll be all put together and you guys can see the finished product! 2. Clive my sedum clavatum has some blooms forming! It came in the mail with blooms, I’ve been sticking him outside on warm days & watered for the second time today. So glad it’s still thriving so I get so see those pretty flowers! 🌸 3. Okie my baby crowded Haworthia from @Lifeis2short has grown lots since she mailed him to me, but has shot out an extra inch of growth since watering on Monday 😳 4/5. Opal my (injured) graptoveria opalina (my cat was chasing a bug and mauled it about a year ago) has finally recovered & looking healthy and full again. It also likes the new sunny south window it’s been in over the winter. Look at those stress colors coming back! 🌈 #Graptoveria #Haworthia #vsoh #StringOfHearts #AndromischusTriflorus #NewGrowth #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #GrowingSuccs #BloomingSuccs #sedumclavatum #Sedum #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #Succulent #SuccerForSucculents

‘Heart shaped’ #Succulents update..!💕🪴😆 Two of my favorites - Calico Hearts & String Of Hearts (Variegated). 🌿 My Baby calico hearts *FINALLY* started putting off some new growth, it’s been at a weird standstill for a while, I wasn’t quite sure why.. it hadn’t put off any new growth despite being in proper light & consistent watering schedule. I decided to repot about two weeks ago, & it has since finally showing signs of new growth. (Photos 1&2) it’s tiny, but I know those are new leaves! I have a larger one that has also been a fast grower, so I was confused as to why all the sudden it slowed growth. I think it needed a repot! I also repotted my VSOH (photos 3&4) so it’s been putting off some new growth as well, it’s also been showing more pink, since I’ve been keeping her outside lately in brighter more direct sun. 💕🌿 #AndromischusTriflorus #vsoh #VariegatedStringOfHearts #variegatedplants #StringOfHearts #StringLoversTogether #CalicoHearts #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #GrowingSuccs #succulentsunday #NewGrowth #HappyPlants #PlantAddict

•Red stress coloring from these guys already 😳 , I’ve only had them here for two days now outdoors. The colors have seemed to develop rather quickly.. 1- Echeveria ‘Aphrodite’, lots of red showing up, it used to be a bluish green-grey. 5- The red edges, & pointed tips on the Echeveria ‘Atlantis’, are also a characteristic of light stressing, or direct sunlight. 3&4- Calico Hearts, I’m trying to find the perfect lighting to get those gorgeous red speckles on the leaves throughout the plant. Maybe with time ? They have been under grow lights so maybe now that they are outside in more intense, direct lighting it will start showing again. 🤷🏻♀️🔬☀️🌿❤️ #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #Succulent #Echeveria #CalicoHearts #AndromischusTriflorus #PlantAddict #GrowingSuccs #SunStressedSuccs #OutsidePlants #OutdoorGrowing #OutdoorSuccs #HappyPlants #NewGrowth
