You like succulent plants, I know people have found a use for aloe, know any other "productive" members of the succulent society? What is the largest succulent plant you have grown? Prettiest? I have a lovely amateur garden that is surrounded by aloe and is currently otherwise vacant because of Cold weather and SQUIRRELS.  tree rats stop tearing up my starter pots theres no acorns in there!

Those chubby little leafies are so cute!  How do you propagate 'em from their leaves? Do you use any fancy store-bought elixirs or powders?

EagerSleeper posted:I'd be willing to post a picture step-by-step post if anyone wants one, but later since I'm posting from my mobile at this moment. Go for it, I'm still curious. Do you have to mess with them at all after they start to grow from the callous? Or do they grow roots down into the ground on their own? D'ya keep it moist while it heals or would that make bitey bitey bacteria have a field day?

I saw some beautiful cactus flowers the other day when I was driving past a cow pasture where a few cacti have cropped up. Brilliant bright yellow on top of a smallish cactus that looked like it had paddle shaped segments. Now I kind of want to grow some cacti, but the place I want to grow them in is kind of covered in shade a lot of the day. How do cacti do in shade? Do they all need a ton of light to survive? I wanted to put them under a window to make it a bit less, eh, inviting looking for unscrupulous types. I'm curious, if I plucked one of those cactus paddles off one of those cacti next to the road, would it seal up and sprout roots eventually, like the succulents do? I don't want to go maiming some poor lil' plant if it'll result in zero gain.
