When I bought Mira from the clearance rack the other day, her leaves all looked healthy, but her flower stem was very droopy. Now, look! Standing straight up, and blooming! 🤗🪴💚🌸 I still need to get her a proper pot. That’s on my to-do list for tomorrow! #EcheveriaPelusida #BloomingSuccs #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #babevila

Yay Mira! 👏🌸 so beautiful! Echeveria is sadly the only plant I’ve never been able to keep alive! I don’t think they get enough light here even on the windowsill. Do you use a grow light? Here’s to more happy growing for Mira ☺️🌿🌸 also I love buying clearance plants and giving them some love 😂

@elizabeth.myrrh I never had any luck with succulents either until recently! I started reading about them and now I have a whole collection, several are echeverias. I recommend following @SvelteKingfern , she knows everything there is to know about succulents, and I’ve learned a ton from her on this app! And yes I do use grow lights, I only have a couple of windows that get good light, so grow lights are clutch for me! My plants love them! 🪴 thank you for your kind comment 💚💚💚

@BabeVila That’s great to know thank you so much. 😊 It was one of my first plants ever - it stretched out into a tree and then eventually died 😅 so definitely a light issue. I just got a grow light this week so we’ll see, now I’m a little more inspired to try again 😄💛
