I’ve followed the watering requirements but now my poor plant is withering away. What’s the best solution to hopefully bring it back to life? #Echeveria

Is he okay? Soil has good drainage and is very dry. I noticed a mushy leaf #Echeveria

My partner let me pick out some new babies from MCG and he paid for them for our anniversary! We are on the struggle bus 💸 right now so I think it’s pretty awesome, plus look at the cool plants I scored ! A variegated ghost plant that looks like a pastel neon princess, two variegated cacti, ice plant which I’ve been coveting since I saw @vvvelo’s, a sweetheart Hoya and an Echeveria Dionysos. If I can keep the humidity in this place low enough, they are going to be ✨Gorgeous✨ I haven’t had time to pot anything yet but I’m hoping to get to it tomorrow. He also got me baby toes and a crassula moonglow 💖🥳🪴💕 #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantsAreTheBestGift #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #GhostPlant #Hoya #Echeveria #IcePlant #CactusClique #Cactus #Cacti #variegatedplants #variegationappreciation #PlantAddict #PlantHaul

When should I give up on these seeds? I bought some succulent seeds off Etsy in February. They germinated and sprouted some little leaves but they’ve not done anything for about 2-3 months and they’ve gone kind of pale. How long should I wait before I give up? #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #Echeveria

Wanted to share some pictures for #succulentsunday 🌿😊 1/2- a baby I found on my pachyphytum ‘Starburst’, this is its first baby it’s put off since I’ve had it. Yay! 3- Sedeveria ‘Dark Elf’ looks like it may be starting to grow a flower, it has grown one before and looked similar. 4- Lipstick Echeveria, I need yo repot this one but its leaves are looking much better after accidentally burning it when I first brought it back outside for summer 😬 5- Silver Snake Plant- is putting off a pup! My first pup I’ve had on this plant, it seems to be a pretty slow grower. 🤔 #SucculentSquad #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #HappyPlants #NewGrowth #SnakePlant #SnakePlantSquad #SucculentLove #Succulent #Succulents #BloomingSuccs #GrowingSuccs #Sedeveria #Echeveria #Pachyphytum #OutdoorGrowing #PlantAddict #LipstickEcheveria #SilverSnakePlant
