All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

Originally, the succulent was the size of my palm. It had been doing great, but after leaving for a few days I came back to find it completely dried out except for the tip which still had a bit of green.

I can't stand when any of my plants die, I feel like I have failed them ☹️. So I took the tip, removed all the dried leaves and placed it in a new pot. The stem was dead too and the plant had zero roots in the middle of summer. I had to spray it with water constantly and be extremely careful until it rehydrated and grew some roots. Took a long time, but I'm glad it's healthy now!

Dang man I'd feel bad too in those conditions lol. It's only when I'm not sure what caused it that I absolve myself, or bunnies, can't stop the bunnies.
