#crassula

A mix of crassula and sedum stragglers that I’m trying to revive after a lengthy period of restarting their root growth.

Some pups I isolated into a little pot.

And my favorite, in the bright green pot. I think once upon a time I had a positive ID for it, but at this point I just know it as pretty baby.

Spent the morning splitting all these guys up and giving them their own homes

I’ll be honest and I can only positively ID the bear paw kalanchoe (small fuzzy guys with little brown spots). I’m psure, though, that the spiky one with reddish edges is a crassula of some kind, and the rounder one is sedum. I think they all started as fallen leaves taken from garden store displays, so I dont know that I ever actually had the right info on them, if I ever did.

(Pro tip: if you’re broke/cheap, but live near the big guys like a Lowe’s, Home Depot, or anything like that, you can often find fallen leaves all over the place. The leaves are great for starting a plant from propagation. If you’re feeling less risky, I’ve heard from a lot of people that you can haggle over the price of a dying plant, if you’re interested in a challenge. Dying plants may sometimes be too far gone, but you can usually pull off a healthy amount of leaves to start from, and it usually still works out to being cheaper than buying the little 1" starter/filler babies)

Outdoor bubs updates.

The purple hearts are so stoked to be outside, they’ve grown in almost bushy with how much sun they get.

And the sempervivums are just going crazy throwing pups these days. I actually just let a few of them drop into the pots when I upgraded them a few weeks ago.

The ones I’m most stoked on are those moonstone babies that are about to flower.

Sunday funday. Nice weather means upgrading the plants and trying to give them some more outdoor time until the weather lets them stay out long term.

Some of the moves I made

Crassula perfoliata var. falcata (Propeller plant)

Such a stunning succulent! The flowers are just out of this world, not just the bright colors, but the texture and shape.

Do you grow this baby?

As with many succulents, they like lots of sun and love to let their soil dry in between watering sessions. Mine are potted on the ground and get full sun and foggy mornings & evenings.

It’s colorful again ❤️

Surprise here: the Jade plant “Gollum” just timidly bloomed for the first time here. Usually Jade plants need to be larger and older to bloom

Sorpresa: la planta de jade “Gollum” ha florecido por primera vez. Normalmente las plantas de Jade necesitan ser más grandes y más años para florecer

Jade plant flowers finally opened

Crassula ovata (jade plant)

saved this jade plant from the reptile section in petco; all dried up and had some dying leaves, but gave it a heavy watering and she’s recovering well
