One of my Little Jewels! Pachyphytum compactum

I don't actually have IDs on most of these, beyond Hatoria salicornioides, a couple of Rhipsalis, and two different holiday cacti. I don't collect desert cacti but their tropical cousins are delightful and have taken off like crazy since I moved them into this window.

I got this little Echeveria for free from a large supermarket giving them away. It is obviously in very poor condition but I wanted to try to nurse it back to health. Ive grown many things but succulents are not one of them. Looking for advice on how I might give this little guy the best chance possible.

First obvious problem is they overwatered the crap out of them. Currently letting it dry out next to my Aerogarden so it gets plenty of light.

Been trying to not scare these off to get some pictures for a while now! Was so happy with this one.

Should have probably put a part of that title down here, huh? ;)

Anyway, these were also purchased online, but that site shipsthem like that, with soil and in pots.

The store I got them from ships them dried out and with no soil, ready for re-potting. Hope they recover quickly and grow big and strong!

Nice jades just tossed on the sidewalk

love this contrast

(Gymnocalycium mihanovichii)

There’s something about this one that I love so much. It’s a Haworthia kegani X cooperi var. venusta!

I don't know what they are but I think they are pretty nice.

So, here they are - getting sprayed in this heat might not be too bad, but I was worried about the mist hitting the cacti and killing them by overwatering ;)

Struggled with my Tokyo Sun from the beginning, was one of my first plants & I learned so much since then. The time period between the first and last photos are about 8 months!

A cute little Lophocereus Schlottii on the left, and a THICK Euphorbia Triangularis Cristata on the right (the little cactus behind is just photobombing, it's not attached).

Sadly he got a bit etiolated last winter, but this year he's going to get all the light and love so he can stay cute and pudgy :)

Saw these on a walk recently and I have been obsessed with them since. I think the succulents are related to the invasive “ice plant” highway succulent grass you find all over the California coastline. I’ve never seen such a full bush 😃

I’m having to grow all my succulents in a cabinet this year because of lack of sunlight at my current apartment, and my lithops are pretty thrown off by the whole situation. I lost one (the sunken one) I’ve been afraid to unpot everybody to remove, but the rest seem to be doing alright. Two of the dorothea(?) didn’t split at all this year. At some point I plan to separate by species because some definitely seem to want water more than others.

Ok it didn't exactly do anything crazy, but it was blooming like we had never seen before this last November! Absolutely gorgeous!

Hello! I posted a few days ago on [email protected] and one of the comments mentioned there was this succulent-specific community so I figured I would post here as well! So for a bit of background I have a black thumb, I've tried caring for plants in the past and they always seem to die on me. I'm trying to change this! I bought a handful of succulents and am trying to figure out how to keep them alive. Any advice is welcome!

The succulents: dwarf jade, panda plant, echeveria elegans, split rock, and there's one more that I'm having trouble identifying so if anyone recognizes it please let me know! It's the spiky one.

I saved this plant from my office 6 months ago because it had nearly no leaves, and now she's green and growing in a unique way. If this is what healthy looks like, it's all good with me.
