I’m in zone 9b (SoCal). I have a North facing, covered balcony, but I love succulents! I propagate everything and I like “saving” neglected plants.

Senecio rowleyanus

🥺Had to finally get rid of some plants that were too far gone with #mealybugs . Hopefully, I can grow them back from cuttings, and the mealy bugs won’t have anywhere to hide. #succulent #propagation #pests #stringofpearls

@cyndi I’m not allowed to put holes in the wall outside.🙄 And it’s too long for my pot sized shepherds hook.

My string of pearls got damaged when I was moving everything around, so I thought I’d try propagating in water. At least it looks pretty. #stringofpearls #succulent #props #waterpropagation

@sushiwaitress I saw some on Pinterest and thought it looked better than my usual plastic tray of soil 😂

When mine flowered I was shocked they had a lovely fragrance. Who knew, from such a tiny bloom.

#new I know it’s sunburnt, but it was blooming, so that’s a good sign, right? November 6, 2018 #stringofpearls #succulent
