How to fertilize Lecheguilla
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 Lecheguilla after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Look what I got! You were right it’s a really cool book. Lots of good information. I’m not sure I want to do decorating with succulents, but who knows. I might be taking a pottery class so I could make some terra-cotta pots in the future. Then I might think about the decorating part of this book.  #TheWateringHole tags: @MarionsOasis @Just1More @Sassylimey @Ms.Persnickety @TidyTigerpear @DreamMachine @BEsucculent @kaleena @MamaLinne @debbiedo @BonusTaraire85 @Idplantthat @mtplantlady @BabeVila @RefinedSandwort @LaLaslovlies @FitBrowallia @JenniferNoel @CutePolypremum @AC73LoveCats @SweetAzurebluet @IWantThatPlant @ILoveMyPlants @princesspitstop @Jho @Dawgfreak @Luckeecharm1 @MockingJay @HolyLacealoe @stephonicle @Ponytailmom @SunflowerSunset @PrizedShadscale @Popcornjoness @BuffCaperspurge @Preciousplants1 @baobab_zig @GreenPurpose @antsinurplants @LucidAgapanthus @ShadowBoxrBaby @Forbes57 @TRose @CactusAdjacent # #succulents #succulentLove #sedum #echeveria #kalanchoe #aloe #crassula #euphorbia #cotyledon #dudleya #Bredasdorp #agave #simpervivum #Salicornia #hatiora #epiphyllum #portulacaria #Austrocylindropuntia #graptopetalum #graptosedum #aizoaceae #aristaloe #lithops #ariocarpus #pachyphytum #curio #gasteria #tephrocactus #faucaria #frangipangi #othonna #Anacampseros #sesuvivum #dracanea #haworthia #stapelia #curio #ceropegia #senecio #aeonium #Zamioculcas

my agave is looking brown and drooping in the middle. it's in succulent soil with a drainage hole in an outside porch and I'm watering it the recommended amount. should I just limit it's water intake? #Agave

#Agave Is the leaves drooping and some turning yellow on the ends normal (excuse the few broken ones that broke when moving her outside for some sun, she’s a bit on the heavy side and a awkward pot for picking up). She has new leave growth and a cute little pup (when and what do I do for the little guy)?

Oh no, not me trying to sneak in these two beauties this morning when I suddenly got caught trying to be slick… My daughter sold me out. She said, “Mom, I brought in the essentials from your car but what about the other plants?” DH sits up straight, asking “What other plants?” You guys, I only brought in the one from Austin Succulents yesterday but these two were on my wishlist and I picked them up Thursday while purchasing Blue Flame Agave for my other house. He knew about those but not about the #AgaveVictoriaeReginae #QueenVictoriaAgave that was on my #PlantWishList. He thinks we have a jungle at our house and we do but… but! They’re so pretty!!! Just look at that architecture! My plants are in the garage. I’m uploading them once I finish my coffee but look at the stock images of the mature ones! How does one say “No, I’m good…” to this kind of plant majesty??? Was it worth gettin caught? I think so but what do YOU think? Would you do it just to grow these? #PlantAddict #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #Agave #AgaveLove #HappyPlants #PlantTherapy #CreatingMyOwnDesert #CentralTexasGang #GoForBroke #StillThriving
