The twenty cent succulent plant

by anja

I rescued this plant from where I work (a large box store) and gave it a new home.

The stem of this succulent plant is lime green with a bundle of stems at the base not a bulb.

The plant right now is about 4-5 inches tall and has leaves that curve inwards somewhat. The leaves are smooth not furry.

I have another one of this same succulent plant which had grown three large offshoots which I removed. Unfortunately, one died but the other two are doing well.

Hi Anja,
You're well on your way to being a collector. Starting a succulent plant collection is very addictive - pretty soon you'll have lots of these lovely plants filling every window.

The biggest issue with growing succulents is that they need a lot of light, sometimes requiring a boost from a fluorescent light to get enough to stay healthy.

Noticing your plant has a tendency to droop is an indication that it lacks light, a common problem when they've been kept too long in low light conditions such as a box store, not the best situation.

I'm sorry I can't accurately identify your plant as the picture is a little dark.
