Update: Regrowing Succulents


You might remember from back at the end of January when we shared starter pics from our efforts to try and propagate one of our succulent plantsWe left off with high hopes and a few teeny tiny roots just beginning to peek their way out from the individual pods:

Most of the pods have remained full and supple — and the little roots just beginning to grow in January have grown much longer, grasping well into the soil:


One of the pods has already began forming a new leaf right from the end of where we pulled it from the original plant:


We're pretty pleased!

For now we'll just continue to let them do their thing, giving a spray of water every now and again hoping for continual, albeit slow growth. Perhaps the process will speed up a bit now that we are approaching spring.
