Thank you for watching and letting me know. I'm glad my videos have been helpful to you. Stay safe and I hope your interest in succulents become a good medicine for you.
Yes! Eto ung kadugtong ng isang araw. nabitin ako doon tita lizk. Sa isip ko ay sayang hindi na pinakita ang pag kuha sa mga babies🙈. Eto bagay sa aking shaded garden tita lizk thank you for sharing this vids😘❤ have a nice day po😍👋
Hi Liz! we are a group of 6 friends all plant enthusiasts and avid watchers of your videos (we didn’t know until we met up today). We’re from Sydney and we’re thinking if ok to visit you 😆 if ok lang. we are fans na
That is awesome! Thanks for watching my videos. Unfortunately, I have a very busy lifestyle that I don't know when I'll be home. That's why it's difficult for me to dedicate a time for people from interstate to come to my house. ATM, I'm preparing for a 4 month prospecting trip to WA.
Liz what a gorgeous specimen plant! I have an e. neon breakers that developed pups all around it, and instead of taking them off, I plucked off the bottom lips of the mother plant. So that the pups would have room. I think I regret that now? Good news is, I have plenty of plants to work with in the future :)
i loved this video and would like to watch some video about echeveria that are difficult to propagate by leaves. sorry I can't speak English or write I use the translator, but I love to hear you speak.
Mam liz i think thats Echeveria Colorata v Brandtii 😊 kamuka po nya ung colorota ko. Nakakahappy i cant wait maglabas ng babies ganyan colorota ko po. Thanks po sa tips about sa nodes😘 every videos new learnings po.
I use spoon or small shovel for small pots. For big pots like this, spoon takes too long which also makes the video longer. Thanks for watching. Cheers
According to many info online they are one and the same but I beg to differ. I have a colorata fa. lindsayana that looks like a chihuahuaensis and colorata and a Lindsayana that looks more like a colorata var. brandtii.
Hi Liz I bought a pup on 27rh July 2021. It was 1” when it arrived. It just won’t seem to root up. I have over 100 succulents that I’ve successfully grown MOSTLY from leaf or cutting so I’m not new to the game. I just wonder if you can make any suggestions as to what I can do. The roots do start to grow but then die. They don’t rot. The plant looks virtually as it did when it arrived so I’m baffled. It was in a 5cm pot. No fungus gnats in any where. Would you remove the dried up roots? Would you soak or water propagate it? Would you put it in just coir? I started it in just coir but then after 6 months of no growth repotted into 50/50 coir/pumice White roots do appear. But then just dry up 😪 any ideas? You do say they take a time but not this long I’m thinking 😆
PUP???😁 I'm sorry have to laugh but what plant? Dried up roots means you haven't watered it for a long time. Coconut coir dries up really fast so have to water every couple of days. Seeing the small roots means you keep pulling it out of the soil. They get stress and dry up. Growing indoors also encourages a lot of mealybugs on the roots that you can't see. They look kind of reddish and not white. They might be eating the roots. There's also soil mites that thrives in dry soil/coir and is eating the roots. After checking all these, I suggest giving it a good dousing of my metho solution on the roots. Plant it back in the normal soil mix and wait. Hopefully it's still warm enough to encourage root growth before winter comes.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK 🙈siren it was sold to me as an E colorata Lindsayana. I’ve only pulled it out about every 4-6 months but being too dry may be a factor. Thank you SO much for replying. I’ll have crossed fingers.
@@moiraberniegatt9491 It's a strong plant. I had a lindsayana in its original soil for 4 years and it's still alive. I tend to plant and neglect them, and they seem to thrive.
I've already seen this video before but since I am having issues with my colorata, I have to watch again. I don't know what I'm doing wrong po. She's now down to 4 leaves from being a big plant. She got sunburnt badly so I plucked the leaves but I don't know why they just turn soggy hence unviable. I put the leaves in a sheltered dry place. The plant itself, I soaked her in Seasol before repotting her then I put her in the shade then the leaves have turned mushy. I water once a week po because of the recent heat here in QLD ( now we're back to heavy rains) So I had to pluck more leaves off which now left me with 4 leaves on the plant. Now, she's just sitting on top of of the soil. Too scared to plant her again in the soil.
Colorata doesn't like water. They need a fast-draining soil especially if they're grown outside exposed to the element. A sunburnt plant should be left alone to heal where the exposure happens. This is one fast way to acclimate them. After a few months, the sunburnt leaves will grow out and the plant will eventually put out some side shoot pups. If she's still alive, put her in a bright protected area and leave her to root-up and grow if there's any life left in her. Otherwise, best to start with a new plant and acclimate first before putting out in the sun.
