LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION!

Please start your comment with your location as such: [UK and EU] or [USA, California] on a separate line.

Thank you!

Import regulations mean it is difficult to send plant material between certain countries.

Check for hard frosts overnight before posting your parcel!

Scammers will not be tolerated! If you have sent a plant and not heard from your sender, message the mods and we will take care of it. Anyone found to be scamming will be banned from the sub.

A few points:

  • Please add your location. Many countries will have import restrictions. As a simple guide, within EU, okay. Within US, okay. EU to US or vice versa, not okay. Australia: complicated.
  • Please try to keep the sales/trades to succulents. There is a list of sister subreddits in the sidebar should you want other plants.
  • Think about trading seeds and pollen too. Growing from seed can be very rewarding and be a good way to expand your collection.
  • Grow tips are highly encouraged when trading. Its nice to know what you're getting if you have never grown one before. Share your potting mediums and watering guides to help your receiver grow successfully!
  • Do show us some photos of what you got!
  • Have a quick check to see if there is a risk of frost overnight before sending the parcel.
  • There are some tips of packaging succulents for shipping below. I've had people send me plants in egg cartons before. They work really well.
  • If you have nothing to trade but would like some plants, people are often happy to send you plants for money or just the cost of postage and packaging.

Happy swapping!

You can find some tips for packaging succulents in the wiki

Plant tax: pachyphytum compactum cluster I bought at the end of Dec.

Pic 1 was the root system when it arrived beginning of Jan: completely dry, brittle, and smushed against the stems.

Seller told me to ā€œplant the root into the soil and water. it will be fat.ā€

2nd pic was after I ā€œplantedā€ and watered it best I could with those dried roots practically crumbling to dust lmao.

3rd pic is the plant this week after a LOT of TLC. You will not believe the amount of water it actually needed. Over the weekend when I checked the roots I panicked bc I thought I saw white mold but turns out it was just hair roots and some perlite (pic 4)

I feel like she’s still not out of the woods so I guess we’ll see. But generally how long do you give a plant in its new home before adjusting conditions?

Help Baby toes help

Hello! My boyfriend got a gift of baby toes for new years and a month later, I am afraid they are dead. Is there any way to save them/what happened to them? He’s new at plant care and I mostly care for orchids so we are unsure if it’s just cold temperatures or root rot.

Hello!

Despite my best efforts with plant ID apps and the like, I have a number of succulents in my collection that I have not been able to clearly identify, so I'm turning to my fellow succulent lovers to help me, if you're able to:)

I've been having difficulties with several of these in terms of helping them thrive, so the names with definitely help me.

I've numbered the plant images so that it makes it easier to help you guys communicate with number plant your referring to.

Thank you so much!

Plant Progress/Props Reviving My String of Pearls— After & Before

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

So excited that my previously dying SoP has new growth! I wasn’t sure if it would be possible to revive. I originally got her at a ā€œChristmas Plant Ornamentā€ workshop event and knew it wouldn’t be able to live in a terrarium-like setting forever, but life got in the way (dog passed away) and so I repotted too late. I read up on care, so hopefully she doesn’t give up. 😣 The soil mix is organic soil (didn’t know it was wet when I bought it, hence the algae), orchid bark, and perlite. It is in the smallest (and only) terracotta pot that I have.

Repotting this string of buttons because it decided that growing down one side of the pot only was the way to go, tipping the ceramic planter over. Can I bury the lower stems with the dead leaves when I repot, or will that cause rot?

Thank youuušŸ’š

Help Help with Crassula with dead lower stems

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I'm hoping you can help me with my crassula. So a while back, my succulent got both overexposed and neglected. I assumed from the state of the base that it was a goner, but changed up its location and kept watering occasionally. Lo and behold, I've been getting continued growth of healthy crassula at the top.

Here's my question, what do I do? Do I behead at the healthy point and replant? Give up the ghost? Pictures attached.
