I would just let them grow until the pot is full.


ChapterPrestigious55

Ty!


ShesOver9k

This is what I would do too


awooogaa

I’d be interested to see how it looked in a year or two with all those babies growing out


selathari

I've no suggestions as I'm a total amateur in succulent matters — just here to say it's seriously so pretty. 😯


ChapterPrestigious55

You and me both 😂 thanks!!


selathari

I was obsessed with dinosaurs as a kid, and this makes me think of the weird, fantastic flora from some Walking With Dinosaurs series or other. Really cool. 😁


ChapterPrestigious55

Haha! Love it! We have tons of dinosaurs in the house so that fits!!


Paresthetic

I love using small toys as pot decor. Throw a mini dino down in there!


ChapterPrestigious55

Haha I can make that happen! I have a baby duck in another one!


Independent-Risk-965

I love using old toys for plant decor too. That is so fun and gives everything a sense of happy whimsy like we all should have had as children 💕😁


Alternative-Grand-16

Yes! It’s gorgeous!


whogivesashite2

It looks so pretty as is! What's the species?


ChapterPrestigious55

echeveria peacockii!!


whogivesashite2

Right on, I have three of these. Love the pink edges.


ChapterPrestigious55

So cool! Thanks 😊


lainlives

Well it's definitely peacocking!


ChapterPrestigious55

😂😂 100%


lainlives

Yeah I would just let those grow and see what this turns into its gorgeous.

It looks like it's from a fairy tale!


blue_yodel_

I wish mine would make babies like this!!! So cool! I have a pretty good size garden of potted succulents and cacti, some of them do make babies while others I have had for years and never do...I'm no expert on such things, I just sortof learn as I go along. But I am curious what signals them to get those motherly instincts...🤔


ChapterPrestigious55

I’m really not positive… this is the first time I’ve had this many. Normally it’s just 1-2 like you said. I know some people poke holes in the stem to encourage babies but I didn’t do that on this


[deleted]

I get this the majority of time after beheading a plant and leaving some stem behind, and continuing to water. I currently have 3 stems doing this and I love it. Kind of wish one would stay like it forever, but also don’t want to put much effort in attempting to slowly remove the bebes and hope new ones come in.


ComicNeueIsReal

This is gonna look so awesome in a few years. I do honestly keep all the pups on the mother. It will just create a massive echeveria tower.


Ganymede_22

This is gorgeous!!


spidermonkey301

How!? Share your knowledge lol


ChapterPrestigious55

Lol I wish I knew


ChapterPrestigious55

My girlfriend just said she’s been rotating the plant every few days to get equal amounts of sun around all sides of the plant.


ShesOver9k

How does the stalk grow so tall?


ChapterPrestigious55

I wish I knew, just kept losing the bottom leaves and got that tall with time


smoothiesnoot

How long did it take to get this tall?


ChapterPrestigious55

A year/year and a half


LemonIsCoding

Make sure it gets enough light, it stretches so much to get more


Karkkinator

had something smaller with flowers growing on stem, flowers eventually grew long arms, tried to cut of and repot one of them. think your look nice as it is though.


ChapterPrestigious55

Thank you! I’ll let them be for now 😊


Horizonx9

Omg so beautiful!!


tsohgmai

Give them to me.


ChapterPrestigious55

😂😂


[deleted]

This is going to look so cool in a year or two. It looks cool now.


GenRN817

I’d selectively remove a few to make a spiral up the “pole”. It is really so cool!


Independent-Risk-965

That is an inspired idea and I can visualize the results. It would be beautiful!

Plantsandanger

If they start to seem especially crowded - their new leaves are getting caught due to lack of space, etc - then you can gently pop one or two off in strategic places to give the rest more room. Place the removed plantlets on *fluffly, freshly raked up well draining succulent soil mix* and les them germinate roots that penetrate the soil.


ChapterPrestigious55

That was my only worry… don’t get where they find space to grow! Thanks


Appropriate_Stick748

It is beautiful!!


ChapterPrestigious55

Ty!!!


BlueRibbons

I'd leave the pups on unless necessary to remove. They look so nice!!!


ChapterPrestigious55

🐶💚


citygirlsunflower

Oh my goodness gracious. I am in loveeeeeee!!!! What is this gorgeous girl name?!?!


ChapterPrestigious55

☺️ it doesn’t have an official name but sometimes I call it Nick Cannon because it keeps popping out babies. Searching for a better female name tho.


citygirlsunflower

Nicki Cannon? 😂😂


csway324

I like the name. Haha


Independent-Risk-965

Oh wow! You may need a hens and chickens style pot. A large one. There are multiple holes all over it to allow for the spread of the plant and better balance. The pot they are growing so brilliantly in now is too small. If she grows much taller she could tip over into the floor and then you would have to deal with breakage. If it happens the plant can still be saved by putting the broken pieces into other pots so don’t worry at all. You have a green thumb and a beautiful plant to show it! 🌿💚


AlwaysHoping47

What does a Hens and chicks pot look like?


Independent-Risk-965

The much better priced one on the left is a good option. Either way you will need to gently pull the new buds from the mother plant and set them gently yet securely on the soil in their new home. Succulents may seem hard to work with but they are tougher than we expect. Each good pinch off the mother plant can get a new start. Water is what you have to be most careful about.


Striking-Push-5283

This is beautiful. I wish I could grow something like this.


bdh2067

Awesome


RevKitty5922

That’s gorgeous! I’d let them grow where they are for now. 🌸💗


ChapterPrestigious55

😽 thanks kitty!


amberita70

That is so pretty!!!


LunaTeddy1414

That’s so pretty!!


ChapterPrestigious55

Thanks 🌙🧸


Fearless_Piano3650

Such a beauty


Catladyyesi

Absolutely stunning! 🤩


lordbeecee

That's beautiful!


Equivalent-Falcon469

My succulents have never seen more than one year of life for some reasons i cannot keep these things aliveeee and thriving. Ive got a few who are miraculously still living but have had many near death’s experiences. So im impressed with yours looking this good!


Flashy-Section9588

What a beautiful plant as is! That would look striking in a white pot


Independent-Risk-965

A tall and wide see through pot would be amazing. You could take photos of the same areas each day and make a video of growth over time. This is the kind of thing I have always wanted to do.


Stevenkloppard

Echeverría subsesilis aka morning beauty. Reproduces a lot I love it


AlwaysHoping47

Is that what this is called?


Stevenkloppard

Yes I looked it up and it’s also called peacockii


Nangabatman

What is the pot mix you are using?


ChapterPrestigious55

3 parts Jacks gritty mix, 1 part soil


Nangabatman

Thank you :)


airalexgrace

Cute!


spoopykoopa

She's so beautiful


InfiniteDeparture871

Omg beautiful


openmind_101

wow. that is soo beautiful


Rad_Mum

I have something very similar, just wait till it flowers. So cool


ninnuh

This is just absolutely beautiful! 😍


AttorneyGirl2010

I want one!


ChapterPrestigious55

Definitely need a good lawyer on retainer, trade??


MulberryEqual6181

This is so beautiful 😍


louisianaBubble

Wow that’s great. So pretty.


pinkmoon9995

i think this is the prettiest plant i’ve ever seen


EGEoriginals

Love the color


ButterscotchNo389

That is legit one of the most beautiful flowers I've ever seen. It's so clean and organized looking.


Beneficial_Ruin_1894

So pretty! How do you get them to grow on the stock?


ChapterPrestigious55

Happened pretty naturally over time. The new growth came where old leaves used to be. I’ve seen videos where people use a pin to puncture the stock in different areas and that can stimulate new growth but I did not do that.


Actinidia-Polygama-3

I'll bet if you just let them grow, it would be a beautiful pot!


goldearphone

omg how !!! so pretty ...


CurtisMarauderZ

I'd remove all but three or four of them in strategic positions.


ChapterPrestigious55

Ok! They seem really close to each other so I’m not sure what would happen if I left them on and they continued to get bigger.

[удалено]


ChapterPrestigious55

I wish I had a good answer to this… it just happened


Alternative-Grand-16

Can I just say that I like your style! How? 🤷🏻‍♀️ What did you do? 🤷🏻‍♀️ How so tall? 🤷🏻‍♀️ How so many? 🤷🏻‍♀️ What now? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Keep on keepin’ on!


ChapterPrestigious55

Hahaha thanks 🙏🏼


Chaghatai

Technically they're nascent branches rather than new plants - they get bushy in the wild


GLMSISNF

Such an interesting and beautiful looking echeveria


Ok-Zookeepergame5899

I have one that's just starting to grow tall like this. I hope it has babies too :)
