Ich habe diese Pflanze, keine Ahnung, was das ist. Eine Art Sukkulente, glaube ich? Es hat in den letzten Monaten eine verrückte Sache gemacht. Sein Stängel begann sehr dünn zu werden, und ich dachte, er würde gerade sterben – aber im „Blüten“-Teil ist er SO stark gewachsen. Es kann sein eigenes Gewicht nicht mehr tragen!!

Meine Frage ist, was sind die rosafarbenen Fasern, die da herauskommen? Sind das Wurzeln? Kann ich einfach den „Blüten“-Teil abschneiden und ihn in etwas Erde umtopfen? Was will es von mir?!?

Vielen Dank im Voraus für Ihre Hilfe/Rat/Wissen. 🙂 🙂

    Not enough light.

    Put it right next to where direct sun shines most of the day for a while, then start slowly giving it a few hours of direct sun.

    Aeonium I think. Chop it off with some stem, let it callous, replant it then try and get it more light to avoid this in future

    Cut the stem a little below the leaves and let it dry out for about 3 to 5 days to allow the cut end to callous over before planting it in soil (so the stem doesn’t rot). Pink strings are roots looking for dirt, so be sure to bury some of them when you plant it.

    You might be able to cut the stem near the pot and get another to grow from the pot as well, but I usually just toss that because it takes a while and already have too many plants.

    I have a bunch of these, it’s a Perle von Nurnburg echeveria.

    It does need more light. They need a ton of light to not stretch out. You can also cut it (if you want) and replant the top part for a more compact plant. If you keep the stem it will grow new rosettes in a spiral pattern all the way up. Very pretty. All optional. It’s also fine and kind of cool with the long stem.

    And yes, those pink hairs are roots. They throw out a lot of air roots from the stem. Chunkier soil helps prevent that.

    You can decapitate it and start new. New babies will pop up along that long stem when you provide it more light like everyone is saying.

    When they aren’t getting enough sunlight, they stretch towards it! Chop it near the base of the “flower”, wait a few days for the cut to callous, and stick it in the pot again.

    Succulents store water in their leaves, so it will redirect its energy towards growing new roots. Don’t be afraid to cut it, they are really resilient. Don’t overwater and don’t increase watering frequency, or it will rot. I like to wait around a week after potting to water it.

    Move to a sunnier place to avoid it getting stretched out again.

    I have a plant that does that… I absolutely love it… it’s cool.

    I just keep cutting it off and re planting it, I take any leaves that fell off and put them on the shelf until roots appear. Then just prop it strait into soil, the leaves normally produce 4-6 babies.

    The sweet release of death

    Edited to add, no judgement at all, I can’t keep succulents alive despite them supposedly being easy to care for.

  10. besides the almost-always-true answer of ‘light’, i think it also wants some more dirt with better drainage. those roots are looking for either soil or air, both of which it should be plentiful in the pot. if that’s a decorative pot with no drainage I’d repot it into a nursery pot that fits inside of the decorative pot

    I am dying to know how close the nearest window is. OP please I promise not do judge I just need a good laugh today🙏

    cut it off just below the leaves and poke it into a pot of soil. echeveria. give lots of sun this time

  13. SO MUCH MORE LIGHT and appropriate soil.

    It’s a succulent. It needs a gritty fast-draining mixture. Something that’s majority inorganic chunks that let water flow straight through.

    For light needs it wants full sun all day. leaves that have drown with less than that are at risk of burning if they go straight to that level. A week or two in half-day full sun will give it time to acclimate.

    You absolutely can just chop the top off leaving a bit of stem and replant. Just hold off on watering for a bit.
