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

Can my plant be saved? Got two of these plants as a gift (not sure what species), but this one is starting to look very droopy and wilted. I don't think it will survive :( I already cut off one wilted branch, not sure what to do about it now. The other twin (Susanne) seems to be doing fine (under the same conditions), so I can't figure out what caused it. Does anyone know at least what type of plant this is?

Another one for #freshleaffriday this one is an outside love!

I brought this in from living outside all summer and fall. I sprayed it down with my alcohol/soap/been/water mix but noticed all these black dots. If they’re bugs, they seem dead. Should I keep it quarantined a little longer?

My baby is blooming!!!! I’m so excited! #Sedum

Lets ignore the state of my mug 😂 and look more and the plant shall we. Great when you know another plant guy in the office, I drop off a chilli plant and he drops this little guy off. Trying to find the best pace for him and me. Think i see some new leaves too but not jinxing it. Just need to make sure I dunk my biscuits in the right one 😂😂 #coffeewithsucculents #teawithsucculents #succulentsquad #sedum #plantsmakepeoplehappy

Anyone know what these spots are and what I should do about it? #ShowyStonecrop

Do I need to replant it to shade? Please look at the sedum’s roots - the stems at the base of the plant look withered. Should I replant it to a less hot place? #Sedum #SuccSquad #SuccLove #Succs

Propagation not growing in a pot? Hey guys, so maybe about a week ago I potted a clipping from my garden which had previously been in water and had some solid roots growing. Since potting, I’m pretty sure the roots has continued to grow because I gently pulled at the base of the plant and it was pretty secure in the soil, but there hasn’t been any new growth on top. The clipping was that length when I took it from the garden, and the damage to the leaves had already been done before I’d propagated it, so I’m a little bit confused about what’s happening. Because it didn’t seem to be growing much I did add some coffee grounds as fertiliser to help it along a bit, but I’m not sure if that’s as the right call. Any thoughts? (I have since moved the pot away from the windowsill but still in bright indirect light because the stem was turning red) #PropagationStation #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #witchesmoneybags #NewGrowth

Tiny holes on my Witch’s Moneybags? I noticed these little dots on my #witchesmoneybags and I’m not entirely sure what it is. They weren’t there the other day and the don’t rub off, which makes me think that they’re tiny holes but I’m really not sure, and they’re only on that leaf. Any ideas? Edit: that massive hole was there when I first took her as a clipping from my garden #Propagation #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #

Does anyone know what is going on with these leaves? Hey Greggers, was looking at Deilen and noticed some of these marks on his leaves, the top ones and a couple of the bottom ones. Does anyone have any ideas? #succulentsquad #waterpropagation #plantsinwater #officeplants #stonecrop #plantaddict #planthelp
