    All plants should get some amount of trimming. I have pothos that I cut back every year. I have friends with pothos that only have a single vine and refuse to cut it, but wonder why there's no new vines.
    We need to remember that plants grow in nature and nature isn't always the nicest to plants. Almost every single plant in the world will grow more branches when cut back. This is the best way to get full plants.
    I'm loving these videos of yours. Keep making them!

      We had a beautiful Pathos that covered the entire ceiling. We placed hooks and string to just support yet not hinder growth. It was about 15ftx10ft, all one pot. I would mix water and milk to keep it healthy.

    Here in the Philippines, we grow Kalanchoe pink butterflies from the fallen pink plantlets. They have roots and they thrive very well on soil. But your kalanchoe have beautiful pink leaves, ours here have green leaves.

Someone gave me a green mother of 1000 and it's a favorite of mine but I have never seen a pink one before. I must find a pink one now! Thank you for the inspiring video!

    I'm convinced that cutting too long succulents will stimulate them to be fuller with so much new growth. When we see you do this, it looks so easy and failproof but as I was watching I was beginning to wonder where exactly to cut. How far down and when? Th you so much for letting us know that in your next video you'll cover these subjects.

    Teresa, I love your videos! I live in SoCal too, and unfortunately my backyard faces west, so you can imagine that my succulents are NOT happy with this heat... Can you recommend which varieties tolerate afternoon sun the best? I don't think I made good choices when I selected my plants and I'd like to switch to hear resistant types.
    I also wanted to ask you about that shelf assembly you have for your plants. Was it custom made? It's awesome!
    Thank you in advance!!

    • @ChopstickandSucculents
      @ChopstickandSucculents  6 лет назад +3

      Hi Anna! Yes, the shelves are custom made.
      I have fire sticks and crassulas that received sunlight all day and they are fine. Echeverias and some Aeonium varieties are a bit sensitive to sunlight. Those with thinner leaves cannot tolerate too much heat and prolonged drought. Those fleshy ones when stable can tolerate better but still depends on the variety.

  • @G2DU
    @G2DU 6 лет назад +2

    I have a question regarding growth rate of offsets. I would like to know if they will develop faster on the mother plant - or if it is better to separate them and grow them as individual plants? I'm trying to expand my collection and I'm new to succulents. Your youtube channel is one of my favorites and I appreciate the way you incorporate artistic and design elements into your work.

    • @ChopstickandSucculents
      @ChopstickandSucculents  6 лет назад +1

      G2DU it is safer and yes, they would grow faster when they are with their mother plant. You have to let them grow a little bit, bigger than thumb size. Although it also depends on the variety of plant that you have.

    • @G2DU
      @G2DU 6 лет назад +1

      I will use that as a 'rule of thumb' :) I was referring to Sempervivum varieties. Isn't it surprising and amazing how a gift of a succulent can so quickly turn into an obsession. Your guidance is greatly appreciated, as are your videos. Also, I now use a chopstick. Best regards.

    • @ChopstickandSucculents
      @ChopstickandSucculents  6 лет назад +1

      G2DU yes indeed! Succulent hobby helped me a great deal emotionally. It has become like a meditation time for me when its only me and the succulents. It’s the best hobby for me so far. I’m happy to help others who want to learn too.

    • @G2DU
      @G2DU 6 лет назад +2

      Your reply has helped me more than I can express here. My intention is to acquire enough stock to create mandalas using succulents and coloured stone. Perhaps this is ambitious for a beginner, however being rooted in meditation practice, I am always going to be the student. Suffice to say, many thanks for your inspiration.

    That flowery pink one!! Is there a more green one because I have a similar one but the leaves never got that large or pink. Some of the flower edges turned pink though. I had to cut the top off of the mother plant because it got infested with meal worms. But I noticed the flowers grow roots, fall off and begin new plants. One started growing leaves with tiny blossoms already.
