Cacti and Succulents

Spot on! I just found a label from the original pot that says "Sedum Album Coral Carpet". Between it and our profuse flowering of Sedum Rupestre Angelina growing with gusto in our front gravel garden, I've come to really appreciate the merits of such plants. They also suit our eclectic...

I'd suggest that the bottom part may be dead , the shoot on the right looks ok but the roots may have rotted off completely. Might be worth cutting a couple of stems off and drying them off for rerooting.

That's good, I'm pleased to know that

Thanks @pete, I have looked at some you tubes and now believe it is Echeveria affinis 'Black Knight'

Thanks, I'll be able to use the compost up now

Amazing piece of really useful information, Pete. Hope you succeed in saving the Jade plant and/or reproducing it, Please-help-my-plants. Send some pics if you are successful

Looks fine to me too

Thank you @pete, yes I do have several Euphorbias, although I have lost a few recently. Now that you mention it I think I posted the close-up photo in the 'What's looking good in May' thread. I'd forgotten ... my memory gets worse

OK cheers will try that tomorrow

Thank you i will do it tomorrow

Rebutia, should really flower in spring. But nice to see some colour this time of the year.

Cheers

Hi KandyThank you so much for coming back to me. I am sorry about this belated reply!I would normally agree with you about the leaves dying back but I have had this plant for many years and it would probably have been helpful if I had taken a picture of the whole plant, so you could see how...

Thanks. They are gone. Just needed that reassurance hahaha

Thanks Pete....looks very similar when I searced on that name. Gymnocalycium oenanthemum....looks identical

Pete was kind enough to send me a very healthy Jade cutting a few weeks ago - today I wired it up and put it into a pot ready to try and bonsai it (well, keep it as compact as possible)I'll keep it updated in this thread.
