Root Rot Help! Hello everyone, trying to save my little baby from root rot, I think I have cut all affected areas off, do I need to do the bottom of the leaves also? And should I leave out of soil for a couple days or repot straight away? #Sempervivum

Hens and Chicks Care Hi couple questions, my plant has lost the purple color on itās tips and outer leaves are growing downward instead of how they were originally, all upward toward the middleā¦is this normal or something wrong? Also, the Chicks are at the very edge of the pot, should I replant into a larger pot or will they still grow as-is? #HensAndChicks

Succulent ID I have this plant that I thought was a #hensandchicks, and the app identifies as a hens and chicks, but it looks kinda like an Echeveria 'Dark Moon' to me. It's not from a store, so it has no label. It's from my grandma's garden, and in the summer, they grew with tall flowers, but it's now late fall. Some sand is on the leaves in the pic, and I see a little offshoot thing that Echeveria can possess. What is this? #succulentid #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #planttherapy #plantcorner #plantlove #iloveplants #newgrowth #planttlc #greggang #adhdplantlovers #whatismyplant #identify

What happened to the beautiful red?? What happened? When I bought him he was this beautiful red. I thought from what I've been reading is that succulents can change colors when they're stressed in sun so I put him in the sun hopingto keep his vibrant color, and he's been turning a pale green ever since. Then and now

My plant is drying out. This is my plant, i bought them 3 days ago, and within 2 days they have dried up and look unwell. What am I doing wrong? Could it be the cold weather? I could really use some advice.

What are these? When I potted this plant I put some small pebble type rocks on top of the soil. Itās had yellowing leaves Iāve been removing every now and again. Today I started digging in way underneath the leaves and saw this! Can someone tell me what they areā¦mealy bugs? Soil mites? And what can I do to get rid of? Iām assuming I should repot? Or something else? Thank you in advance!
