From bright green to dark red/purple My black prince went from a bright green color to a dark red, almost purple shade over the course of the Summer. Is this normal or something to be concerned about? #Echeveria

#freshleaffriday My #echeveria and #kalanchoe "flapjacks" love this window! #succulentsquad #succulentlove

Unfortunately I had to say goodbye to not one but 2 of my Echeveria💔this week. I kinda have the feeling I overwatered which lead to their decline😭these were the first succulents I’d bought so I keep telling myself I’m still learning but it’s definitely heartbreaking losing them #SadPlantDay #Echeveria #sadplantparent

It's been a chaotic Tuesday and I'm in need of some relaxation. My Chroma is gonna drive me mad with this flower stalk. The buds are this beautiful neon pink and I really need it to go ahead and bloom. Cannot wait to see what the flowers are gonna look like. The Graptoveria 'Debbie' I chopped and propped this summer is really coming into its own. Cooler nights and full sun have done it a ton of favors. 🩷🩷 Lastly, my Pinwheel is growing the cutest little pup; look at the dainty tips on it! Please ignore the soil, I had just watered it. While I don't have my Melaco listed on Greg, it's colors are worth showing off. I'm in love with the reds coming out. ❤️❤️ #whatthesuccwednesday #whatthesucc #succulentsquad #succulentlove #succulents #succulent #echeveria #graptoveria #planttherapy

How often should I rotate my Echeveria's pot? Should I rotate it a little bit every day or a quarter a week? I currently rotate it a quarter a week. #echeveria #succulentsquad #succulentlove #succulents

Should I cut this back? It’s getting new shoots around its base and also see new shoots at the top. Can this be re-rooted if cut back? #Echeveria

My plant corner on my back porch is looking awesome! When I see how many plants I have.. I realize that I’m for sure a #PlaAddict as well as #SuccerForSucculents 😅🪴 I also wanted to share an arrangement I made this morning! (Photo 3) Another arrangement from a couple weeks ago that I didn’t get to post, my baby yoda planter contains one Graptosedum ‘Cali Sunset’ & 2 Golden Sedum. The last arrangement I did a while back in august, but I’m not sure if I ever posted it 😅 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #SucculentLove #Succulents #SucculSquad #Succulent #succulentarrangements #GrowingSuccs #OutdoorGrowing #OutsidePlants #PlantShelfie #PlantCorner #GregGang #WhatTheSucc #Echeveria #Sedum #Sedeveria

Happy Friday! I hope everyone is doing okay. My weekend started off not great due to some car troubles. :( I just got this car a month ago because I was in a wreck and totaled my car. So it’s extremely frustrating to go through this again. I hoping everything will be resolved soon, send good vibes’! Here are some pics I took this morning while I tried to get my mind off of things for a bit. Plants are always a relaxing way to silence my super loud brain.. lol. 😅🪴 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #Succulents #Succulent #GrowingSuccs #Pachyveria #Echeveria #clavatum #PlantTherapy #Sedeveria #OutdoorGrowing
