Time to prune and restart? #SucculentLove
Hi plant friends. A couple of my echevarias got leggy this spring before I found a better, sunnier spot for them, and I’d like to prune them to regain more of a rosette shape. I’m nervous though, since I’ve never done this. I think that I could dock them, cut the longer stalks into sections and perhaps create a multiple plant-scape in a large, shallow pot with new succulent soil. Any advice on the steps/stages? And what will happen to the original plant? I don’t want to kill them!😬 Thanks for sharing your experiences and support.💚 #PropagationStation

@Echeveriafriend Wherever you cut, that cut must callous over for at least a day before you put it into new soil. The bare stem pieces would need LOTS of bright light in order to grow new leaves.
Thank you! This info (& visuals!) is so helpful!
