Happy Monday! #SucculentSquad Echeveria ‘Aphrodite’- looks so healthy right now, also has a baby growing if you look closely. 🪴 Mexican Firecracker- I got this in the mail Saturday from @Lifeis2short (: thank you! I hope I can give it a happier life! I love the yellow pot too 💛 Stringy Stonecrop- this one is outside, and since spring is pretty much here, it’s regrown and looking nice and tidy.. for now 😂🌿 VSOH- I got this in November thinking about replanting soon… nervous about that.. iykyk. 😳 but is has new growth! Gopher Plant- LOOK AT THOSE BLOOMS! This one is hardy in my zone so it’s also outside. The blooms are so alien like, and each one is different. I took tons of photos, but I can only post five. 😫 #SucculentLove #GrowingSuccs #BloomingSuccs #Echeveria #Sedum #HappyPlants #NewGrowth #StringOfHearts #PlantAddict #PlantAddict #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #Succulents #Succulent

Is it salvageable? #StringOfHearts Hi! I recently got a new string of hearts plant with 6-8 tubers. I placed all of them in a pot together along with a few other small succulents. When potting, I used a small amount of rooting hormone but this tuber didn't take to the soil so I moved it to this separate small container after about a week. The rest of the plant is all green with a hint of red while this part is pretty much completely red and wrinkly. Is this normal and is there anything I can do to help? Thanks!

repotted my Variegated String Of Hearts last night! 💕🌿 I’m so happy I finally repotted it was a little root bound, and I wanted to add a spiller to my new tiered pot I got last week. I’m not quite done but I’m getting there! I made some special soil mix just for the hearts, because they can be a little fussy. I used cactus soil, sand, orchid bark, perlite, & bonsai jack gritty mix. It’ll be acidic which most succs like, and it will be well draining as well. I can’t wait to see how it responds to the repot. I will update you guys as it grows. 🌱💕 #vsoh #StringOfHearts #StringLoversTogether #HappyPlants #NewGrowth #GrowingSuccs #SucculentLove #SucculentSquad #Succulents #Succulent #SuccerForSucculents #PlantAddict #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #FreshLeafFriday #FreshFeaturedFriday

How to help my plant thrive My VSOH used to be so full and happy. It is surviving, but definitely not thriving. I have cut and propagated many times but it just doesn’t look happy, and is dropping leaves like crazy. Does anyone have tips on how to help this plant thrive again??? #HappyPlants #PlantAddict #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #StringOfHearts #PlantTherapy #NewPlantMom #BeforeAndAfter #PlantLove #GregGang #GreggersSupportingGreggers #Greggers
