Finding light for Witch's Moneybags in your home

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

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

Is this a showy stonecrop? Originally Greg app said this was peperonia Hope. 🤷♀️ #ShowyStonecrop

Repot day!! Yesterday was repot day for most of my darlings! My succulents and spiderwort all got put in coco coir, and the rest all got an up pot! Also, I realised why my #witchesmoneyplant wasn’t growing even though it had decent roots when I switched her from water to soil: she’s working on pups! They’re slowly making their way to the surface of the soil so I can’t wait to see how they turn out! #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #repotting #cococoir

FINALLY some new growth on my #witchesmoneybags !! This poor baby has been with me for a while now (basically since like mid summer), and I was wondering why she wasn’t putting out new leaves or anything like that, but when I repotted recently I realised that it was because she was creating pups!! You can just about see this little darling peeking out of the soil now, and I can’t wait to see how they grow over the summer!! I’ll keep you all posted 🤗 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PlantTherapy #PlantCorner

Their nicknames are live forevers and that’s quite true I propagated her and moved her around twice in the last two months and she’s done very well and never given up on me. ❤️❤️
