I'm going to pretend that I let my succulents get leggy on purpose so I could propagate them 😅
I always do that on my leggy plants too tita, and it works like a champ
Thanks for sharing. I love your beautiful garden.
Happy mother's day Ms. Liz! Another educational video. Thanks for sharing. 💚
Thanks Liz... Beautiful.. and great ideas!!
Thank you so much Liz,very good tips.
Thanks for sharing.I 💘 succulents.So I'll do what you did so I can propagate.
Oh my goodness! You are so helpful and knowledgeable! I am new at the succulent game but I love them! Thank you for teaching us all how to propagate and grow happy, healthy succulents!
The pleasures all mine. Hope it's useful. Thanks for watching.
Happy Mother’s Day! 🌹💕🌺
Thanks so much.
Wow beautiful succulent😘
Your blue bird is so stunning
Excellent lesson
In the USA they are called something else. I never knew I owned a blue bird till recently when I beheaded and propagated. The babies are so compact and are pink! I was so excited to know I had one of your favs.
Hate it when they're called different names in different parts of the world. Try going on Korean or Chinese websites. They would have named it like, flying on blue sky or blue wings....LOL
Awesome video! Ty!
Thank you Liz!
You are so welcome! Hope you had a great Mother's Day.

I’m early nice video
Yes you are! Thank you for watching.
hi ms lizk...happy mothers day
Thank you.
Great channel to learn. I am a very experienced gardener. But I want to learn about succulent and I really like your educational style and experiments with succulents. Your weather is kind of similar to the Pacific Northwest so this is a great classroom for me. I got a succulent bug. How many succulents do I need? I just got started. But I am fortunate to have some big and nice ones already. Keep the class open. I am pre-registered for all your future classes. The more classes I attend the less succulents I will kill!!!
Welcome to succulents addict anonymous.😁 With regards to your question of how many succulents do you need... There's really no limit. It's all up to you how much time and space you have. With so many beautiful species and variety of succulents, one can easily get carried away.
Hello po belated happy mother's day po, thank you for sharing this very good technique po
Thank you too.
happy moms day Liz
Thank you.
Thank lizk. Very informative. Is it reversable the leaves that are looking downward?
Yes, it will when grown in full sun.
Maayong adlaw diha nimo ma'am ug HAPPY MOTHERS DAY SA IMOHA😉💞🥰 amping pirme God bless you and fam.
Thank you Florieben. Happy Mother's Day to you too and God bless.
Dear my friend.
🐶 Thank you for uploading a nice video.
🙀 I love your channel.
🌹 I watched your video (I watched the commercial in full. I also gave it a high rating.
💛💛💛
🌹 I will come again. I hope that your friendship will continue. 💛💛💛💛💛
Thanks for watching.
Hi Liz, I really love watching your videos, it’s really inspiring. Do you sell succulents as well? If you do, where can I purchase. I live in Sydney suburb. Thanks
ATM, I'm not officially selling yet. Just growing them for my own consumption.
Happy' mother's day mam lizk
Thank you.
Thank you Liz for these beautiful videos you share with us,they are awesome.
However, I have a doubt, is it necessary to do a slow acclimation to the morning sun before putting it all out to prevent burning of the leaves?
If yes, have you done a video about this acclimation to sunlight ?
Yes it's necessary if you don't know how long the plant has been grown indoors. Below is a link to my ACCLIMATIZATION Playlist. Hope it helps.

Oh Wow! Thank you so much Liz, will check that out right away. 🙏
I love your sick bay area. Did you get it installed? I really wanted something similar for my succulents.
I DIY everything. Thanks for watching.
Love your channel. Do you sell any plants or just enjoy them for yourself? Mary, CT USA
Just mainly for myself. Thanks for watching.
Hi Liz, this is a great idea but why didn't you do this way with the Romeo's from previous videos? Wouldn't it be easier to cut and propagate them this way?
I'm guessing this can be done with all succulents? This way is good for all the echeveria that are too tight to head chop. ☺🥰😍
Romeo is extremely slow growing. Why do you think I have most of my Romeo in the shade.😄
👍
if you have an echeveria scorpio, can you show it some time ? :) its a hard one to find a video of
I don't have one at the moment but they look similar to Echeverias setosa var. deminuta. They are quite easy to grow for me. I had them in my master soil mix and are exposed to the element. That's full sun, frost and rain. I consider them a plant and forget succulent. I only water them when the bottom leaves feel soft.
Hi Liz i have noticed that my bluebird are getting smaller and etiolating and drying. But i think its still alive. Is this because i planted it in small Terracota plants and giving less water like 10cc per week? It is exposed to morning to midday sun.
As a rule in watering succulents, Water less but heavy. That means I soak most of my succulents to get them really fat, then no water until they need watering again or the leaves feels soft. This video might help.

Ahhhh ok Liz ... so i am t#@$ng my bluebird. Oh no. Thanks for the help
Happy mother's day good afternoon po
Thank you Conch.
So pretty po!! I killed 2 blue birds already (not the same) 😩 both just started getting black leaves and it spread and when I uproot it the stem half was black too and I also make sure I don’t over water them and soil is a very gritty mix and the pot is not even deep. How can I avoid that issue po? Or what’s causing it?
One of the reason in my experience is soil containing sand and pebbles or non porous substrates. It also happens with certain strain; so it's a good idea to get only one plant per variety from one seller to be certain as to what sort of hardiness the plant has. For example, I buy my Blue bird from different sources and take note which sellers plant dies and don't buy from that person anymore as they might have a bad strain or growing condition.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK Oh ok I will keep that in mind. Thanks po! 🥰😊
Wondering what soil medium you’ve used on these succulents.. 🤔
I make my own soil mix and I have a few different variation. Link below this video in the description box.
Good morning mommy❤
Good morning!
So does that mean succulents are not suitable for window sills where there’s no direct sunlight? Does “direct sunlight” apply to tropical regions such as where I am?
Depends on the kind of succulent. There's even tropical succulents and a lot of them prefer grown in full sunlight. Some succulents to name a few like Andromischus, Aloe, Ceropegia, Haworthia, Gasteria, Begonia, Rhipsalis can be grown in window sills with no direct sunlight.
Some variety of Echeveria, Graptoveria, Pachyphytum, Graptopetalum; to name a few, can grow in window sill with no direct sunlight as long as there's plenty of bright light.
Sangat indah dan menawan tanaman itu❤️❤️
Terima kasih.
Learned a lot po tita. Stay safe po
Thank you! You too!
Happy mothers day po sa inyo
Thank you po.
Happy Mother’s Day po tita. May I ask what soil mix you used for those blue birds? Thanks po in advance.
The ones in ceramic pots are in my Advance soil mix(for prettying) and the ones in plastic pots(for propagating) are in my master succulent soil mix.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK thank you po. 🥰
So I have a succulent with several stems that over winter inside got so stretched out that it almost looks cool . So there are new succulents starting on the end of each stem and then some in the middles where leaves had fallen off. What I'm wondering is 1... should I still behead in hopes of more babies forming on the stems and 2 is there anything I can do to encourage more babies on the stems after I pull leaves to propogate?
First, what plant is it and what is the season where you are at the moment. I would only do this on the plants growing season.....
If there's new growth, I would leave them as they are and not even water it unless the soil is really dry or the pot is very light. I would wait till the new shoots gets bigger before harvesting.
If there are many stems, I might even try and cut one stem off and see what happens to that stem.
@GrowingSucculentswithLizK it is a sedum adolphi and I am in East Nebraska, so it's end of spring... sunny days Temps in 80s and some cloudy rainy days. I have it on a patio table with an umbrella because full sun seems to burn the leaves.
@@leanna3458 RUclips keeps hiding your comment from my comment feed, so I only saw this a month later. Sedum Adolphii grows naturally leggy. It is the nature of the plant. To keep it compact, best to continually take cuttings of the really leggy heads. Their growing season is from Autumn through spring. Best to take/do cuttings in Autumn. They're summer dormant.
@GrowingSucculentswithLizK thank you so much, I would have never guessed fall would be its growing season since so many succulents seem to do their best in the warm spring/summer months here.
You have any blue birds
Yes Lele. I love them.
Liz, my bluebird is worse than yours. But since i live in Dubai... can't put it out in the full sun.
You can put it out in the full sun but under a 75% UV White shade cloth. They will color up nicely that way too.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK Dear Liz, but the temperature outside is 45'C even with the shade cloth... will the succulent die?
Do you sale your plants. I dont see where you do. Thank you
Thanks for watching Mary. I don't sell at the moment. Just growing for my garden.
Hello po sana ma pansin nyo Po ako ano po maadvice nyo kung ilalagay ko ang succulent echeveria ko sa loob ng kwarto wala pong window ang kwarto ko and isolated sya . Nakabili na po ako ng echeveria at nagwoworry ako baka mamatay sa kwarto ko ?
Echeveria needs a lot of light to grow. So baka try mo ibang plant na di kailangan ng light.
Growlights for indoor
That's what I buy blue bird leggy LoL
Hi!!!
First :))
Is that dental floss that you use to chop the head?
I use 12 lbs. breaking strength nylon fishing line.
Ganyan lage ung bluebird at morning beauty ko. Laging nagiging leggy/etiolated 😣😣
Now you know why.
3rd ?3
U can help me ?
With what?
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK teaching to succulents safe in summers
But I like leggy succulents.
Gaano poba kainit jan sa inyo?
In summer, our temperature can go up to 45°Celcius or 113°Fahrenheit.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK so ok lang talaga dito sa pinas kahit direct sun all day?
@@ninjagaming9316 Mas lalong okay dyan sa Pilipinas kasi ang UV index nyo mas mild kaysa sa Austtralia. As long as acclimatize sila or unti-unti exposure sa araw hanggang masanay. Piliin ang cloudy week to do it. Kaya rainy season mas ideal para ilabas sila sa araw.
My internet is just to slow now
Okay lang. Alam ko you're always present and I appreciate it very much. Thank you.
