What’s happening to my #Sedum ? Hey, guys! My sedum has this nasty white/brown stuff on it. I thought it was just dirt at first, but it’s spread across pretty much all the leaves now. To me it looks like some sort of fungus, but I’m not sure. Does anyone know what’s happening, and if so, how do I fix it? #helpneeded #PlantClinic

Can you plant the petals to grow another plant? So many of mine fell off when I replanted #Sedum
-
I think the roots never recovered and the stem died. Maybe the head will reroot.

I just got this plant I just placed it in succulent soil and hopefully it goes. Do I water it now or wait? Also it says from my search it's a coral reef? Can anyone verify? It does look like what I saw but want to make sure TIA #Sedum

The tips of my plant gets ashy looking. Is it too much light? Not enough water? It’s currently under a grow light for 8 hours per day. #Sedum

Can I cut this where there are leaves missing and just stick it back in the pot? Will it root and grow if I do this? #Sedum #happyplants #newgrowth #jodisplace
