I bought a small Little Warty, when I was Only grabbing soil at Home Depot, lol, but I did so well, only coming home with 1 new plant! And tomorrow is my 40th birthday! So I can do what I want, lol 😂 I live in the middle of the Florida Keys and my aloe's and hawarthia's are all outside, as 95% of my plants. I'm replanting it as soon as I figure out which little pot it's going in. Thank you fur your awesome advise and information! It's much appreciated! Happy Easter 🐣 💛 🥰

Thanks for the wonderful information on Gasterias. I bought one at Walmart, of all places! I had no idea what it was, but it was nice and green and in it's little pot it already had several babies. It has been two years since I bought it and it is nice to know how to actually take care of the dear plant. Thank you from Pennsylvania in the USA. ( My great grandparents came from County Down).

I subbed a long time ago for a good reason guys!!! Great info ty!!
Your gasteria's are beautiful! My friend gave me two that were so green n lush but they turned all brown n i thought they died. But it has been raining now in San Francisco Bay Area finally and I see them turning green on their bottoms. So hopefully they'll keep getting better.
Thats wonderful news your Gasterias are greening up, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a fantastic Friday XXXX
They turn brown from too much sun. Indirect light only and they go green again

Fantastic. I always enjoy your info. Thanks for sharing Lyn. Best wishes. NPO
Brilliant video! Thank you.
So happy you enjoyed the video Carlos :-D and thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching XXXX
Thanks for this video, Lyn, I enjoyed it a lot! Your large pot with all those gasterias and their pups is very impressive and beautiful. I didn't know they grow and propagate so fast. Remember those two little ones I found on the floor of our botanical garden and saved? One of them died, and the other one is doing fine. It lost a leaf, and looks a little dry, but it's making a new leaf and will be ok. It used to be with the orchids, but then it got so dark that I was afraid it was dying. I put it in a shadier spot, and now it looks greener again. Maybe it was the light? The little leave in the middle has grown a little, so I guess it isn't dying. :) Thank you, and have a great week! :)
+Orchids & a Dutchy Thanks so much Andrea for your wonderful comment :-) Thats such good news that your little Gasteria is recovering really well and has grown a new leaf, so sorry to hear about your other one but at least you tried your best to help it, and you have saved the other which is brilliant :-) yes you have definitely done the best thing moving it to a shadier spot, I have had to do this with my gasterias too as they are in the bright conservatory but I kept them in the window because we have had no sun at all for weeks only rain haha! so I thought they would be ok but they were starting to look a little yellow on the side of the window, so I have moved them to the back of the conservatory now behind my big plants for a bit more shade :-) keep me updated on how your little one gets on over the weeks :-) thanks a million for watching Andrea and sending both you and ADORABLE Furbaby Hugo loads of love and heaps of happiness for a MAGICAL new week ahead XXXXX
Do I need to wait twenty years to get that big and beautiful? Lol
Lovely specimen 🌵

I have the leggiest gasteria of all time which doesn’t pair well with their shallow roots! I’m hoping I can reroot it in water before replanting. It’s great to see what a successful gasteria looks like!
Thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and have a fantastic Monday XXXX
A good educational Lyn👍🏻 I did have a small Haworthia many years ago but managed to kill it 😂😱. I liked the green/white contrast on the leaves. We have still got a Crassula Argentea (Pigmyweed) Jade plant which in its 10th generation. We start a new one when it gets too big
Have nice day😄😄😄. Nigel
+MuddyBootz Thanks so much Nigel for your wonderful comment :-) Thats amazing that you have got a Crassula Argentea thats in its 10th generation:-) I love all the Crassula's they are amazing succulents :-) Thanks so much for watching Nigel and sending you tons of love and heaps of happy growing from right across the Emerald Isle for a FANTASTIC evening and Christmas week ahead XXXXX

I have this, but didn't know the name, now I do.
Thats fantastic you have been able to ID your Gasteria, thanks so much for watching Susan and wishing you a wonderful plant powered weekend XXXX
Impressive plant, I wouldn't touch it so much, apparently our hands' touch can be harmful for them, yet yours is so healthy she doesn't mind it, it'd seem :) xx

Ooo, someone gave me one of these at the bcss meeting. It's in the shed at the moment 🙂🙂👍🏼👍🏼🌵🌵

Me encanta el color verde intenso de gasteria tanto como las hawortia 🥰
Muchas gracias y que tengas un maravilloso domingo XXXX
I just bought a gasteria today, this video has a lot of really useful information! I had no idea gasterias and haworthias regrow their roots each year. Any tips on how to keep the fan shape from twisting around?
I bet your Gasteria is a beauty :-D its difficult to stop them twisting around though as they grow this way naturally :-D thanks so much Jasmine for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you an abundance of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from the Emerald Isle XXXXX
beautiful!

Thanks Lynn for the great advice! I might pick up one of these if I see them ( probably won't in Ireland!) :( . I've seen the black spots on my aloe plants before! Thanks for reassuring me;) haha! I'm planning on making a trip to Johnstown garden centre in the spring! Is there any particular time in spring you would recommend me going there?
+Peter Mc Guinness Thanks so much Peter for your wonderful comment :-) the great news is the little Gasteria 'little warty' is one I bought from Johnstown garden centre and I think it was only about 1.99 euro, such a great price, and they had a nice choice of different larger Gasteria's too, the good news with Johnstown garden centre is they are well stocked up on plants all through the year, so you will be absolutely fine at visiting there any time in the Spring :-) thanks so much for watching, and sending tons of love from Waterford for a MAGICAL new week ahead XXXX
Broke mine all up. Wish I hadn’t.
Thats a shame, the good news is over time the individual Gasteria pups will re grow lots of new plantlets too, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and support and for watching and have a fantastic plant powered weekend XXXX
Great tips! Thank you =) =)
thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful weekend XXXXXX
Thanks so much for the tips! Super helpful :) would love some advice if you can as I'm so unsure what to do... One of mine's roots were all dead, so I've taken them off and been keeping it hovering on soil and waiting for roots to form... it's been a couple of weeks and no roots have emerged yet, would you recommend putting it into soil straight? Or wait longer? (The base has been dipped in cinnamon and the plant itself looks good still)
Hi there, so sorry for only seeing your comment now, thats great you removed the dead roots, yes you can definitely go ahead and plant it up straight into succulent soil, but keep unwatered for about a month and then after a month you can start to introduce a very light watering to encourage the rooting, good luck with Gasteria, and thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching XXXX
Just got one of these, I'm glad I found your video.
One small thing: at 1:28 you say "Gasteria" is a *Latin* name. It obviously is, as all scientific names are Latin, but the word "gastros" is actually *Greek*.
Cheers from Italy.
+landochabod7 Thanks so much for your wonderful comment :-) and thanks for letting me know about the word 'Gastros' being Greek :-) thanks so much for watching and sending you lots of love and heaps of happiness from Ireland to Italy and have a fantastic day XXXXX

Hello Lynne! Thank you SO much for making this video! I purchased a beautiful gasteria batesiana from a plant shop and sadly was given incorrect info that it would be good in direct Los Angeles sunlight:( Direct sun and heat, along with what I now know is over-watering, has caused it to sunburn and many of it's base leaves to yellow and shrivel. I've just moved it into a shady spot, but am wondering if I should prune the dead leaves off and re-pot in the same way that your re-potting video instructs? Any advice would be much appreciated!
Hi there :-D So sorry to hear about your Gasteria batesiana, the good news it should recover really well, yes you can prune off the dead leaves and then re pot again, you have done the best thing moving it to a shadier spot and these plants are brilliant at recovering really well :-D good luck with your beautiful Gasteria batesiana
@@desertplantsofavalon Aww, so happy to hear they're survivors! Loving your videos that I've had the chance to watch -- they've been more helpful than any of the info I've been able to find online and even a cacti/succulent book I have! Many thanks again for your help!! Sending love and appreciation:)

Eu tenho essa suculenta acho muito linda 😆👍👏👏
XXXXXXX
HEYYYYY LYN! ☺☺☺☺😁 omigod I'm so honored .. by making this gasteria video already make me happy but u even mentioned my name ... u don't have to Lyn 😊 you're too kind haha .wow that clusters of gasterias you have .. so cool.. I hope I could grow some like that too 👍 I have gasteria glomerata and gasteria baylissiana .. and the rotted one and died is the glomerata ... like I already told u if u remembered because of over watering.. lol .. we're friends now Lyn. .. I pray good karma for your kindness .. thanks so much Lyn for the wonderful video and for your time making that video even just for my humble request ✌nexttttttttt please show us the exact way to watering gasterias .. like how exactly you pour the water .. like is it from beneath and just put the pot drowned in water or by the soil or all the leaves included ... because I know u watering it next year right ? because theyre dormant now... and another question .. do gasterias have dormant period too in tropical climate ?? or that just occurred on 4 seasons countries ??? xoxo from Indonesia
+Indra Yudha Kusuma Thanks a billion Indra for your fantastic comments and I was so happy to make this video, and I am just so sorry I took so long to make it haha! :-) I will definitely make a video in the Spring about the exact way to water them ,a s it can be difficult with all of their rosettes because if they get damp they are prone to rotting, so its always best to water from the base of them, but will definitely make a vid in the Spring on the watering requirements :-) Thats such a brilliant question you have asked about the tropical climate because the temperature and the light levels has a huge impact on the watering levels even in the Winter, and because you are blessed in Indonesia with warm temperatures and brighter and higher light levels all through the seasons, I definitely think your Gasterias and other succulent plants will definitely keep on growing through the winter but at a slower rate than Spring and Summer :-) I would keep your plants on the drier side still and giving them some water about once a month just to prevent the soil from getting too dry, but if they show any sides of shriveling then give them a good watering to prevent them from losing their roots :-) Hope this helps and wow! what I would do to be in warm Indonesia now haha! Thanks so much for watching Indra and have a FANTASTIC Monday ahead XXXXX
+heartfullofhappiness its actually raining season now here in Indonesia 😂 so basically there's not much sunlight everyday and the humidity level so high but once again thank you Lyn xoxo can't wait to see you other fantastic videos every other days haha lots of love

Hi !thanks for your great video What time of the year is the best to repot them?
Hi there :-D its best to re pot Gasteria from Spring until late Fall, its best to not repot them during Winter :-D thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you an abundance of love and happiness and PLANT POWER from right across the Emerald Isle XXXX
Não entendi nada do que vc falou rsrsrs, mas já havia alguns dias que eu queria ver um vídeo sobre essa planta. 😘😘
I bought today gasteria verucusa with lot of babies around=)
+Sebastian Thank you so much Sabastian for your wonderful comment and for watching :-) Thats brilliant that you have bought a Gasteria verucosa with lots of babies around it :-) They are wonderful plants to grow and I bet your Gasteria is a beauty :-) Sending you an abundance of love and happy growing from Ireland for a wonderful day XXXXX
Fab video. Thanks. I have one which has lots of babies coming, where the parent leaves are going a pink colour. Is that ok?
Also, how long would you leave that pup in that tiny pot before potting it on please? Months or a year? Thanks again.
Hi Bernie :-D so happy you enjoyed the video :-D and thats wonderful news you have lots of babies growing, yes it can be normal for the parent leaves to go a bit of a pink colour, it can be due to excess light or lack of water, but mine goes pink to in bright sunshine and it is not harmful, I leave the pups around the Mother plant to form a clump, it does not harm the Mother plant, but you can definitely remove the pup once it has grown about an inch in size, and pot up into its own individual pot, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and have a fantastic weekend XXXX
What about sunburn on the leaves? Should I just trim the sunburnt tips? Thanks for the video!!
Hi there :-D yes you can trim any leaves that are sunburnt, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and have a fantastic new week XXXX
I would like to know if they need more space to reroduce them? Thank you!
Hi Daniela :-D they can grow all clumped together but giving them a wider pot would give more room for the plants that grow from them more space and this would encourage the Gasteria to grow wider :-D thanks so much for watching and have a fantastic weekend XXXX
Thanks
Thanks so much for watching Yvonne, and have a fantastic plant powered Sunday XXXX
Hi Lyn! Really informative video, thank you! I currently have my little gasteria on a bright southern window sill (I didn't realise they didn't like bright light until watching this video) It's gone a browny/red colour I think probably due to excessive sun, but it is also getting a flower! So i'm unsure whether to move it?! What are you thoughts? :) x
+Rachael Totty Hi Rachael :-) Thank you so much for your wonderful comment :-) thats such wonderful news your Gasteria is coming into bloom and if I was you I would leave it in the same window its in until after it flowers, because sometimes moving them can make the plant drop the flower, and although the south window is making your plant go reddish, it won't harm your plant to leave it in the window until after it has flowered, and then I would recommend moving it to a position with more shade and your plant should green back up again really well and continue to flower the following year :-) thanks so much for watching and sending you lots of love and heaps of happiness and happy growing from Ireland and have a fantastic Wednesday XXXXX
+Desert Plants of Avalon Thanks so much for that info, I appreciate it! :) I came across your channel about a week ago and find your videos really helpful but also relaxing and positive at the same time! Will continue to watch! Keep up the good work and happy growing to you too! :) xxxx
Rachael Totty Thanks you so much Rachel :-) so happy that you found my channel :-) Sending loads of love and happiness to you from Ireland and have an INCREDIBLE Thursday ahead XXXXX
Have you been repotting the big one each year? how do you keep it all together as a clump?
+maxpawl Thanks so much for watching and your question :-) I don't re pot the big one in a bigger pot every year as it is very slow growing, but I do get it out of the pot every year to check the roots and cut back any of the dead ones. :-) most of the smaller 'rosettes' are coming up from the top of the plant rather than from the bottom of the roots, so I am able to separate the roots to check them over without separating the smaller ones growing up from the top and around the top, as long as I am able to get to the roots and separate them, then I leave them as a clump, if I wasn't able to reach them though I would definitely recommend separating them all if it was the only way to reach the roots :-) Sending tons of love and heaps of happy growing from Ireland and have a FANTASTIC new week ahead XXXXX
I can confirm, gasteria hate bright direct sun :( (though my gasteraloe really likes it hehehe)
Don't some of them also have a "summer sleep"? Whenever it's too warm?
Thanks so much Ben for your wonderful comment :-) yes I have noticed that some of mine also have a Summer sleep and then towards the end of Summer and early Fall they go on another growth spirt and grow like crazy haha! thanks a million for watching and sending you an abundance of love and happiness from right across the Emerald Isle for a FANTASTIC Friday XXXXX

how it watering gasteria?
gasteria loves dry or moist soil ?
plz tel me mam...
Hello, would tomato fertilizer work for Haworthia as well?
Hi there :-D yes tomato fetilizer used at half the strength that they recommend for tomatoes would be perfect for Haworthia and also Aloe too, I use it with every 3-4th watering I give them and my Haworthia's have all bloomed this year :-D thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending you tons of love and happiness and heaps of PLANT POWER your way for a FANTASTIC day XXXX

Thanks so much for your wonderful comment Kitty :-) thats such brilliant news you have bought one of these gorgeous Gasteria's they are such fantastic plants :-) Yes I would give your Gasteria a good drink now and if the shop had watered it previously you should still be ok with this time of year :-) thanks so much for watching and sending you an abundance of love and happiness and Plant Power from right across the Emerald Isle for a fantastic weekend ahead XXXXX
+Desert Plants of Avalon Thanks so much!. Your the best :)
Hi, my gasteria fall to the floor and one branch was severed, can it be rejoin? Thanks.
Hi Jose :-D its possible you may be able to save it by propagating the branch as a cutting, pot up the branch in dry succulent soil and keep in a warm and bright position and no water until mid March, its possible you may get roots to form over time, but in Winter it will be much slower, if the cutting starts to shrivel you can lightly mist the cutting and soil, but roots will still form in dry soil too, good luck with your cutting and thanks so much for watching XXXX
I just got my Gasteria today and was wondering how it would do in a terrarium? Which is why I bought it. Lol
Hi Carlena :-) thats wonderful news you have got your first Gasteria :-) personally I wouldn't plant it into a terrarium because they tend to encourage higher humidity than when grown individually in their own pots with lots of air space around them :-) thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching and sending an abundance of love and happiness and tons of PLANT POWER from right across the Emerald Isle for a MAGNIFICENT Sunday XXXXX
I have just gotten one from the store, but they just left it to die in the winter. It is pretty shriveled and purple. There are a couple leaves that look savable. Is there a way to rescue it?
Hi there, yes you can also propagate Gasteria from leaves, if you cut off the savable leaves and allow the cut part to fully dry 'callus' over for about a eek and then plant into cactus and succulent soil, then keep mostly dry until Spring and just mist the very top surface of the soil once a week until the Spring, keep in a bright and warm position to encourage faster rooting, good luck with your plant and thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, and sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER and Happy Holidays to you XXXXX
@@desertplantsofavalon Thanks! It has been bouncing back, and the leaves that I cut are starting to scab a bit. Wohoo!

Hi Lyn, I bought 5 different ones of this plant! I like how neat they look! All because of your channel! lol! Grow lights ok for a little while on these and haworthias???

Hi Paul :-D Gasteria are more shade loving plants and although can take bright light they can still go pale and get sunburn if if you move them from inside to outside without acclimatising them to the brighter light they will go pale or and red, the good news is if you move your Gasteria back into a shadier position or inside in time it should recover again, but the pale parts may not recover but any new growth will be green, if you move outside again keep it in a shadier position away from strong sunlight, thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful plant powered day XXXX

How do you get them to flower
Hi :-D Gasteria will often flower if given lots of light and in my experience they prefer to be slightly pot bound to flower, as when I have potted on my Gasterias they dont seem to want to flower until a few years later but the ones I keep slightly under potted produce flowers every year for me, I use a tomato feed and use it at half the strength they recommend for tomatoes for all my succulents and cacti and I find it really helps to produce flowers due to the high potassium :-D here is a video I made on how i use the feed to get them to flower ruclips.net/video/Re7pQkHm-aM/видео.html and also on how to get cacti and succulents to flower : ruclips.net/video/5wovFgmnvdg/видео.html XXXXXX

How can I save if there is root rot ?
Hi there :-D its best to cut off all of the dead roots and then leave the plant unpotted for a few days to allow the cut roots to heal over and then repot into dry cactus and succulent soil, keep the newly potted plant dry for about a week before watering again, here is a link to a video I have made on repotting and pruning off the dead roots on Gasterias, ruclips.net/video/pwlRXWVqHS0/видео.html thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful day today XXXX
❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏👏👏💗
Thanks so much for watching and have a fantastic day XXXXX
When can I transplant
Hi there :-D you can transplant any time of the year with Gasteria's but ideally its best during their growing season from Spring until mid fall/ Autumn :-D thanks so much for watching and have a wonderful Tuesday today XXXX
this was a 10-minute video and don't have time to watch the whole thing....how often do you water this plant :)
Ok.. I have something like this.. I thought was an aloe plicatilis...idk what it is!!!
Well...I just repot mine..its winter but it needed it. So far its good 👍
Thats wonderful you have a plant like this too, and its still ok to repot in Winter if you keep the soil on the drier side until spring, thanks so much for your wonderful comment and for watching, sending you lots of love and happiness and PLANT POWER for a wonderful weekend XXXX
why gasteria leaves go thin?
Mine were like that when I purchased. Leaves were paper thin. They were dehydrated. Once I watered it several times, they plumped up.
