Comment on What the heck is wrong with my succulent?
Canadian_anarchist@lemmy.ca 6 days agoI have a graptoveria that produces air roots constantly, mostly because despite having a perfectly good pot and light source, it does its utmost to grow outside of the pot. Every year I have to chop and prop it to save it from itself.

Some succulents grow in such… seemingly unsustainable ways for the mother plant. I guess ultimately these are all some kind of propagation strategy for the plant though.
Alloe will overground their pots with tons of babies and fall over when they get too big.
Our big jade will intentionally dry out the center of some of its smaller branches to make the ends of the branch fall off in hopes of rooting.
I guess this is why the plants have been successful. It does make for some level of struggle as a house plant though, lol.
