Greetings friends of this kind community of cactus and succulent lovers, today I bring you an event in my succulent plant Sedum Morganianum.
Some time ago I had already commented here my odyssey to get one of these plants. I have had it for more than 2 years, it was a single leaf which under my watch has been growing.
My Morganianum plant, which was only one branch, now has 3 branches, but it so happens that the biggest branch got damaged. There were some strong tropical storms that fell frequently in this area of the Caribbean Sea and they damaged several species of succulents.
Once, when I was checking my cacti, I could see that the main branch of my Morganianum was more flexible than before and when I observed it closely I could notice that it was rotten from its base.
This is something that discouraged me as this is one of the succulents I hold most dear. I immediately took all the small leaves hanging from the fallen Morganianun and placed them in a pot.
Here are all the little leaves scattered around and now on some of them you can see at the proximal end how a small bud is emerging. There is a new Morganianum plant, which makes me very happy.
What can I say, after my sadness from seeing the mother plant with an irreparable damage on one of its three branches now I can say that I am happy because new succulents are being born.
Life always makes its way, and I am happy about that!
Thank you to everyone who has the pleasure of coming to read, comment and vote for this post.
Those little babies will catch up in no time! :)
Good you managed to save some leaves.
I thought they would not be able to hatch because as you can see they are such small leaves and had swollen so much with water. But I managed to leave them in the sun without humidity for a week and they responded. Now I did moisten their substrate a bit.
Good job! :)
Don't give them too much sun. It might actually burn the leaves. This one is not too much of a sun lover.
Thank you for your advice. In fact they are all under a semi-shade net roof. The sun here is too strong for everyone.
These are really easy to grow from leaves. Good job on saving some
But they are so small I didn't think it would work. They are only 1cm long.
