Hey! I have a question about my aloe pup. I was told to put it in water til it grew decent roots, which it has, but I'm also worried it might be rotting? I'm not sure if this is normal. Should I be worried? It's growing a new leaf so it seems to be doing fine otherwise

The roots are firm but dark. And the core stem is dark and soft, but doesn't seem to be spreading upward past that point yet

(it's been sitting in my window so the color is slightly off. Been getting a tad too much sun I think)

Best to let the pup hover above some water instead of actually putting it in water! Putting it in water might cause rot, letting it hover above water will stimulate it to grow roots without that danger. Picture doesn’t look too good, roots are probably dead. If the plant is still alive i would remove the roots so it can start over again. The dark stem doesn’t look healthy and it being soft is concerning. i would try to wiggle the bottom to see if the dark part lets loose, sometimes succulents start rotting but dry out again before the rot can really spread and do too much damage

Woke up at night to watch her bloom and she then proceeded to keep this flower alive for 2 nights and 2 days

Hace unos meses compré una suculenta que estaba en una maceta pequeña. Cuando llegué a casa la trasplanté. Y desde entonces, no para de crecer sana y vigorosa.

fantástico :)

This person stole my picture and acts like my plants are theirs. I’m probably not the only person whose pics have been stolen. Can you please report this account? Thanks!

This plant didn’t get the right care for a while but it’s happier now! Also look at my orangutan :)
