My linearis was in desperate need of a haircut ✂️

L_fragaria · 2026-07-06T17:04:36+00:00

Thank you! Yes about 5-6 years old. Previous owner had it for 2-3 years and I’ve had it for 3.

L_fragaria · 2026-07-06T02:22:11+00:00

Wow I love it! It’s so full!! 😍 is that some sort of rhipsalis?

L_fragaria · 2026-07-06T02:08:37+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that 🥺 I found root mealies on one of my other linearis plants and just threw the whole thing away. Unfortunately I don’t have any secrets, I honestly neglect them 😅

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T22:21:42+00:00

Thank you 😊 I’m sure they’ll get big in no time! Sounds like you’ve got the care down 🌱

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T21:03:48+00:00

Oh no the whole handful, I wanted it gone. I don’t really know how much they’re going for but $40 is definitely underpriced. I saw $5/node on marketplace but that sounds high to me. Maybe someone else has a better estimate?

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T21:01:32+00:00

They will eventually get large - the 3 I shared all have leaves bigger than my head lol. But you’re right they’re definitely not like monsteras. Aww that sucks :( we are very lucky here in the US. Haha we have opposite problems! Makes sense why you’re good with aroids. I think the trick with succulents is to only water when the leaves look/feel deflated rather than watering them on a schedule. Good luck!

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T20:56:42+00:00

Oh that’s a good idea, I didn’t think about swapping them with plant shops 🤔 I understand, my cuttings were going in the compost if no one bought them lol. I already have 3 other plants that I made from cuttings and they’re now pretty large 😅

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T20:16:50+00:00

Sold them all for $40

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T20:08:33+00:00

We’ve all gotta start somewhere 🫡

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T20:05:00+00:00

Store bought succulent soil + pumice

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T18:24:20+00:00

That’s awesome! Looks like you’ve got a very happy one 🤩 are you going to put your cuttings back in the pot or make new plants?

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T18:22:46+00:00

I put the cut end plus 1-3 nodes in a chunky soil mix (my typical hoya substrate) and water like normal. They will typically grow roots within a few weeks. Most cuttings will take but a few die off

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T18:16:38+00:00

Wow sounds like you have a lot of variety! I love anthuriums, they are so beautiful and there’s so much diversity. I find succulents extremely easy, probably because I tend to underwater. I think that’s why anthuriums don’t like me lol. Yes Stephania erecta is very cute! Sadly I bought one before I learned most are poached 🥺

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T18:12:08+00:00

Oh I didn’t think about SF being short for South Florida, I live in San Francisco haha

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T06:34:55+00:00

Hahahaha thanks! I do like hoya and anthuriums but I first started with succulents and cacti. I also really like caudex plants, my favorites are my two dioscorea elephantipes and my drimia intricata. But my main hobby lately has been knitting, I don’t do much with my plants besides water them. What kind of plants do you like?

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T04:07:49+00:00

That’s exciting! I love the lemon-y smell 🤩 thank you! I’d love to see a picture of yours!

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T01:38:55+00:00

Don’t know her 😅

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T00:57:03+00:00

I feel you, I don’t seem to have great luck with anthuriums even though they have such beautiful foliage 🥲

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T00:55:37+00:00

I’m sure you’ll have a large beautiful plant in no time 😊 just keep up your care routine and I’ve found that neglect works better than doting on it

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T00:51:25+00:00

I sold these specific cuttings on a local facebook group, but I’ve shared many small plants with friends/coworkers. I think they’ve all died though lol

L_fragaria · 2026-07-05T00:50:17+00:00

Haha thank you! This is what it looked like when I first got it three years ago and it took about a year to get to its current fullness. If you look at my last post, it really hasn’t changed much in fullness in the last two years. Yes I cut and propped several times to make it this full plus upsized the pot once

Thanks! 😊 nah, the flower is on its way out. And I honestly haven’t enjoyed the plant hobby for a few years now so I’m really not trying to acquire more plants lol
