#WhatTheSuccWednesday #CactusClique #SucculentSquad #GregGang Happy Hump day Y’all I can’t believe it’s already Wednesday again time flies. Just another picture of the Drostenia Foetida ! I’ve only had this plant since April this year and it’s been consistently putting out flowers. Not colorful at all, but cute nonetheless! And it came with a little freeloader, a so called “blind passenger” It cracks me up, because I seem to be unable to propagate succulents or anything else for that matter. But this accidental propagation seems to be working. It’s too early to tell what it is. And I’m hoping it’s not just a weed! The last picture is of the Greenovia Wine cup, as you can see It’s been here since last year September, and I have yet to water it! I read that it was dormant when I got it and not to water it, nor to remove the brown bottom leaves. So that’s were I stand with this plant, but I also haven’t researched any further. If someone has any info about this dude, I’d be very appreciative! So that does it for now. Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their week, Ciao!

I helped a friend who needed help with her greenhouses and farmers market in the 1990's. She always said "a weed is just an unwanted plant". We likely work hard on our indoor plants, whereas someone somewhere is pulling them out by the bushels.😆

@Popcornjoness I’m not sure where you’re from but I just got mine from a Dobbies! They were selling them as a “limited edition” plant and I was lucky enough that my bulb had two plants growing from them. Apparently they’re pretty rare so maybe just have a look online?
@LikelyDaboecia your frizzles are so gorgeous!! I was just debating on tossing mine because it’s really sad looking. But you’ve inspired me to repot it and see what she does.
@LikelyDaboecia I'm in love with your frizzles....I did not have the right environment for mine and it succumbed to rot pretty quickly - something wasn't right, but I'm not 100% sure what. I know the lighting was probably too low. Someday maybe I'll try again. Yours are awesome!
@PricklyThumb They’re fab even I have to admit! If they’re not curling well then i’d suggested watering it less- or your plant may be going into dormancy!
Love the big blooms in my domino. They should open tomorrow. Sad they only last a day. Kiwi is showing her bright colors. Pinecone is finally doing something after a year. And I had to copy @Boymom-plantmom and get myself a lifesaver cacti. It just arrived yesterday 💚
@UltraKoreanfir I mean I stay in a pretty cold country, the only thing I do is try not to open the window too much and sun, sun, sun! I think these guys are definitely worth a second go if you’ve got the will!
@LikelyDaboecia it’s really struggling. Brown and yucky. It lives outside and I’ve been moving around with different sun amounts and just can’t find its sweet spot. It’s ugly.
@Ms.Persnickety I "think" your freeloader may be a bear paw kalanchoe. At least it has the right shape.
I don't know anything about the Greenovia...maybe contact the seller though. I would not think any plant would lie dormant for a year, and the leaves are looking wrinkly. I'd be wondering about when & how much to water too, to bring it OUT of dormancy. Very curious.

@PricklyThumb I’ve got mine on an East facing window so it gets like 3-6 hours a day of light, I think the curling problem is definitely an overwatering and the browning comes from too much sun if it’s not going into dormancy or you’re not seeing new growth like mine. How long have you had it?
@LikelyDaboecia it’s had zero new growth. I got it this spring. It’s currently getting morning sun (east) from sunrise to about noon. It’s been getting rained on a lot this summer. And my cacti rule is if you can’t survive outside without me fussing over you, you are not welcome here 😂
@PricklyThumb Hahah then honestly I’m not sure- I think it’s the watering thing, it’s pretty picky and needs to be watered when the soil is fully dry, no more no less. Clearly mine is a bit of a tank though- one of the biggest i’ve seen in terms of stem size 😂
@LikelyDaboecia well I pulled frizzle from the pot and its roots look good. 🤷♀️ I gave it fresh soil and some worm castings. So now it either grows or goes with God 😂
@LikelyDaboecia this is so cool. Now I’m furiously googling where I can get one to add to my collection!
Got a little stand for some of my succs and others. Time to reclaim my kitchen table. #whatthesuccwednesday #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict
My #whatthesuccwednesday
This guy is doing a funky twist all of a sudden. Usually they're sort of fanned out, like left to right ..but he's gone haywire.
The cacti - on the right, the red spines are super pretty in the sunlight. On the left the fuzzy one has a bunch of new growth starting....I think it looks like a Gremlin that fell in the water! Mr. Bunny Ears is droopy today ...probably angry about all of the rain. Or is it indicating thirst?? 🤔
My faves of the week are the Euphorbia though ...they have really grown a lot out in the natural light & rain.
Lastly, I posted about this little paddle plant a few weeks ago ...left outside through the winter since it had died....it resurrected. It has doubled in size since my last post on it, and the "large" stem/nub has melted away in the rain, I guess???

Brand new #Cacti mom! I know I'm kinda late for #whatthesuccwednesday but got this guy last week and had to represent him! 😁🌵
Calypso’s triplets are all shooting up! (I think they’ve been light reaching so she’s currently being adjusted to a grow light). One triplet decided it didn’t want to match anymore and stretched out the opposite leaf LOL love this little mystery plant from lowes clearance 🌱 (may vs today!) (current guess is an ox tongue) #Gasteria
@Ms.Persnickety not sure if u got your mystery solved already, but if the leaves stay relatively thin and you start to see tiny little things growing in the nicks on the leaves, your free loader may be a mother of thousands! (A type of kalanchoe) which is the most PROPAGATION of plants u can get imo, this is one of mine when still healthy and what they looked like as babies
@LikelyDaboecia Absolutely LOVEEE 😍🌀 I’ve never seen one before! Where did you get this if you don’t mind me asking? 🤓💚
@GmaMadeMeDoIt I love it so much too! I got mine from a Dobbies as a limited time deal so I don’t know how helpful that is for you unless you stay in the UK
@LeafSprite Thanks for the info. I’ll wait a little longer before I can definitely say what it is. But you might be right about it being a “mother of thousands “.
