You got me saying “Echeveria” like you (I live in the United States). People get confused and then assume that I’m the one who is pronouncing it correctly and therefore a succulent expert. Thanks Liz! 😜
Yaaayyyyy!!! Don't even know who the first person to pronounce it as ekeveria. Maybe ask people with the surname Echeveria or Echeverria how their names are pronounced. Echeveria is named after the 18th century Mexican painter and botanical illustrator Anastasio Echeverria y Godoy. Now we just have to reform people who say kaluhnchowe instead of Kalanko-e(Kalanchoe).

Love that ECHEVERIA ___________. .....ha ha did I spell right? Too many Echeveria’s and I love them all.... I have few favorites though😊😊😊. I think all of us has her own favorites. And to Lizzy? My favorites are all in your garden 😊😊😊. Love you girl ❤️❤️❤️.
You are really a mother of all beautiful succulents ma'am.😘😘💝💝💝 I love all your succulents I wish 1 day I have also like yours hehehe but maybe after 5 years from now😊😊😊 salamat kaayo ma'am.,sa video nimu God bless you keep safe
Cguro ganun din ako sayo ma'am Liz, Ang hirap kase magbigay or ipagbili Yong inaalagan mo na Kay tagal tagal...lalong Lalo na super gandang Ganda ka sa alaga mong halaman. Ayy Naiitntindihan Kita.😄. Ang masasabi ko lang sorry talaga sa tumitingin.
Ay naku madali lang po magbigay. Ang dami ko ng pinamigay kaya lang kailangan mag keep some to grow for my garden and experimentations or else....I'll be 100 years old bago ko mapuno ang garden ko. LOL
Gorgeous, I bought a superbum as big my pinkie yesterday. It was quite pricey but the seller had a mama which was not for sale, oohhh my it was love at first sight. Thanks lizk for the info. Bless 🙌
Love this plant, they are so easy to take care of and has the most beautiful pink color, I expose mine to afternoon Texas sun and the color turns sto deep purple, just gorgeous
The superbums grown from leaves are so beautiful. Oh no. What is that? The label in the planter says "Debbie"? At 6:50 a old label from some time before? Just wondering. I love your detailed information.
Oh my goodness they look delicious! I actually only have one single leaf propagation of a superbum growing right now! I got one leaf somewhere I don't even remember and watching you I started marking my leaves with a Sharpie marker and I'm so glad I put SB on this leaf because it's still so very tiny it looks like a lavender Pebbles because it's so fat LOL if I didn't have it marked I would think it was one of my lavender Pebbles LOL I can't wait for it to grow bigger. My one little tiny leaf propagation LOL I'm such a sucker for propagation. I broke down and bought a Debbie and it is flowering right now so I'm probably going to dust it with some diatomaceous earth. Watching this video makes me want to buy a bunch of the super bum 😊
They grow fast. Even with that one leaf you have, once it has 6 leaves, remove the bottom and if grown under your grow light, it will germinate within a couple of weeks. You keep doing that after a few weeks...by next year, you'll have at least a dozen or more.
Hi Liz! Oh... spring is on it's way here and ready to plant, plant, plant! This Graptopetalum Superbum is going to be one of many purchases. I love easy plants, wonderful video.
Just picked my first one up from the plant store today! I went in to get some potting mix for a money tree I'm trying to bring back to life (got succulent mix because the tree needs fast draining soil and the old soil would retain moisture for months). Saw this cute little succulent and couldn't resist. It wasn't labeled so I had to search around on the internet but it's definitely a Superbum. I have two Echeveria that I saved from my wedding bouquet and I propagated some leaves from both. Now I have 4 little baby echeveria of my own and gave my fifth to my mom for mother's day. Can't wait to start propagating some of these once I get some leaves I want to pluck off! Only problem is I live in ND and it gets super cold here in winter so I have to keep them inside and I'm running out of room on my window sill that has good light.
Hello, Liz! Beautiful Graptopetalum "superbum"! Thanks for the informations and precious tips on caring for these wonders! Kisses from Brazil! Cristina, São Paulo city 😍😉
Hi Ms Liz, love watching your channel, i can feel the positivity in you, i’m a succulent addict like you. 😂 im from So Cal but i notice Australian have more beautiful collections. Nakaka inggit hehe, maka move nga dyan 😊
Thanks for watching Jean. RE: Australian have more beautiful collections. I don't think so. Been online on a few US sites and they have some spectacular varieties that we don't even see here in Australia. There's a lot of succulent breeders in your country and your quarantine laws seems to be a lot more flexible than ours. Also from what I've learned or seen on TH-cam, anyone from the U.S.A. can easily buy succulents from overseas sellers from Korean, China and Japan (succulent breeders) which we can't do here in OZ due to our very strict quarantine laws..
We've had hot and humid summer weather this year and I've kept them on the dry side. The ones needing water was really easy to see as they are quite wilted. Then a soak with seaweed solution helped to hydrate them.
Tita Liz!! You're making me want hunt for a Superbum. This has been on my wishlist for quite a while now, the only thing that's stopping me is because the hot season is just around the corner here in the Philippines po. I love your Superbums!
They love the heat. Best time to get them. Grow them in shade until you have an army of them. If you get them rooted already, put in moist soil(not wet) and only water when the soil completely dries up. Then you can water them again. The leaves grow super fast as well when there's high humidity provided you just lay them on top of coco peat or tissue to germinate and root.
I envy your garden. I'm still a newbie, but someday, I wish to have such an extensive collection as you have. They're all so beautiful! I wish you're here near me so I can visit your garden (and maybe ask for a few pups, haha) :)
I started with one broken plant in 2016. The stem grew babies and from those babies, I harvested more leaves and the rest is history. Chopping it off at the end of spring will give you lots more babies. Good luck and may you have more SUPERBUM. ☺️ Thanks for watching, Eva and have a lovely day.🥰
Your tray of Superbums made me smile this morning. How do you make it variegated? I also like that you love, but don't baby your succs- they are really resilient plants!
Many gorgeous graptopetalum Superbum but Where are the flowers ? I know it may not be the blooming time but it would be helpful to mention how to get them to bloom. Thanks.
Graptoveria Purple Delight and Graptoveria Crystal are one and the same plant and they change color depending on the temperature. More purple and more green and more blotchy with fatter leaves. Superbum is completely different since it has a flat face, thinner leaves compared to Purple delight and stays pink all the time except when grown in shadier or less lit areas then they go green.
Hi Liz! I have 1 with a tiny baby forming on the stem but it seems to be stalled? Is there anything I can do to help it along? I only have 1 medium flower, 1 stem 😬
Depends on the season where you live. Here in Australia, they're starting to slow down coming on to Winter. They grow fastest in Spring and Summer. If you have an indoor grow light or somewhere you can keep them warm with direct sunlight, you might be able to coaxed it to grow faster. NOTE: Slowly introduce it to direct sunlight to prevent burning.
Do you have a Graptopetalum purple delight? Can I request you make a video about it if you have one? Thank you! I get confused with these purple colored grapto succulents.
Glad you found your way here Veronica. I have different soil mix for different scenarios. Links are located below the video in the description box. Below is also a link to the SUCCULENT Soil Mix PLAYLIST - th-cam.com/play/PLrXnzlHRKzov9mmpJoGSLGEljHIYTLNaM.html
I love your videos & am now more in love with Superbum. I have 1 so far but am obsessed with trying to buy more, especially a mature multi-head one. Hard to find any near Wollongong or in NSW. Any suggestions?
My one is more than 1 year with a lots of babies but the leaves become skinny now, what should I give them to make them “ chubby “? Thank you for the video!
I put fertilizer in the initial soil mix and none after that and it's almost a year and half ago. The only time this will get fertilized again is when I transplant it into a new soil. Thanks for watching.
I have this graptopetalum superbum but it stay small😩 i buy it online but maybe they are too small too young .. i buy 3 now i just have one .. 2 of them is die 😭
They don't like too much water. Keep the soil halfway wet and half from top dry to let the roots go to the bottom to get the water. Once the plant is establish and producing babies, then you can water from the top when soil is completely dry.
@@ishratzakia. I know what you mean and yes the Farina comes back on the superbum leaves that I rubbed off. On a laui, it might take longer but it will come back too.
Graptopetalum pentandrum is a species of Graptopetalum. For example, Graptopetalum amethystinum, Graptopetalum paraguayense, etc. Graptopetalum superbum is a sub-species of pentandrum. The name should be listed as Graptopetalum pentandrum ssp.(sub-species) Superbum. The names too long so it's now shortened to Graptopetalum Superbum.
Mealybugs likes weak plants with or w/o farina. If the plant is stressed and lack circulation, they're bound to get mealybug on them but in saying that, there are also plants/succulents that doesn't get mealybug at all.
Do you drill holes in your big rectangle plastic containers? You show us the baby incubators but don't discuss them. Love your superbums!! 🥰🤩 thank you for educating us. Mine don't grow that big. I seem to always get sick ones I first have to nurse back to health. But they never turn into that! I call it "succulent recue" from these big box stores that kill them. I can't let them die by drowning. Lol When will I learn to start with good stock!! 😭
The rectangular pots all have holes. They are not incubators but direct planters. These superbum in the rectangular pots have my INTERMEDIATE Succulent Soil Mix.
Unfortunately, there is no simple soil mix to use for all succulents. Different succulents need different soil mix. Planting succulents in different type of pots requires different soil mix. Planting succulents in the ground needs different soil mix. Where you live, the weather and the location of your garden also need different soil mix. Below this video in the description box are the different type of soil mix I use. You can also make your own similar to what I make. Cheers
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK i want to thanks you for your explanation but not all the elements of soil mix are found in jordan so can I use perlite and peatmos and compost accepting my greeting
Not a diva at all. It can even grow in a premium potting mix with added perlite or pumice. It's a summer grower and goes dormant in winter and also not frost hardy.
Sabi ko I'm "trying" to variegate them. Variegation is a mutation/trauma from pest or disease and also growing conditions. When I find out, I'll make a video to let you know.
Hi Liz, I see sometimes you say your plants are only 18 months oild from a leaf or whatever. With my leaf propagation they shoot at first but then they all seem to look like the same variety even though they aren't and they never seem to get very big... they just stay that size.. I think they need more sun, but in my yard and the way things are sorted I don't know where I can put them and also I don't want to give them too much sun all at once and have them burn. :( I wish you could see what I mean and give advice especially for me LOL. I know I will work it out - Somehow. xox
I always say to pluck and throw method. Where they we're plucked from and grown with roots, is also where you should place them in a pot near the area and they need to be watered everyday or kept moist. I prefer to put master soil mix in the pot and top it up with coco peat for the rooted seedling so I can bury the roots in the cocopeat without them getting wet feet as coco peat dries up really quick...OMG I'm writing a novel...LOL I think I better do a video on this to better explain.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK Hehe thank you for your response.. Mine have got past the leaf stage. They naturally came away from the mother leaf. but haven't grown since... and honestly it's been months... The stems are long which makes me say i reckon they need sun. My succulents are 90% in the ground. So when I get leaves should I pluck and leave them in the garden? What I usually do is collect them so I can give them that extra attention - watering etc. I put them in trays with basically your master soil mix and I also use the coco peat per your instruction :) Now that it is cooling off maybe I can transfer them slowly to more sun and see how they go. I also wrote a book lol
They don't consume soil. The soil is the source of minerals like Nitrogen, magnesium, phosphorus, etc. As the soil decomposes, these minerals are released into the soil. Succulents use the energy from the sun, or other light and use it to make their food. The ingredients for this process are water (minerals in the soil), carbon dioxide, and light. As the plant grows, the soil decomposes and release minerals which are absorbed into the plants. This is why the soil shrinks.
You got me saying “Echeveria” like you (I live in the United States). People get confused and then assume that I’m the one who is pronouncing it correctly and therefore a succulent expert. Thanks Liz! 😜
Yaaayyyyy!!! Don't even know who the first person to pronounce it as ekeveria. Maybe ask people with the surname Echeveria or Echeverria how their names are pronounced.

I still haven't crack it and that's why I'm "TRYING" to variegated them.
Liz, would you say that mealy bugs don’t like succulents with farina in general?
Mealybugs likes weak plants with or w/o farina. If the plant is stressed and lack circulation, they're bound to get mealybug on them but in saying that, there are also plants/succulents that doesn't get mealybug at all.
Do you drill holes in your big rectangle plastic containers? You show us the baby incubators but don't discuss them. Love your superbums!! 🥰🤩 thank you for educating us. Mine don't grow that big. I seem to always get sick ones I first have to nurse back to health. But they never turn into that! I call it "succulent recue" from these big box stores that kill them. I can't let them die by drowning. Lol
When will I learn to start with good stock!! 😭
The rectangular pots all have holes. They are not incubators but direct planters. These superbum in the rectangular pots have my INTERMEDIATE Succulent Soil Mix.
Hi Po I love your succulents
Please i want to tell me about a simple soil mix for succulent
Unfortunately, there is no simple soil mix to use for all succulents. Different succulents need different soil mix. Planting succulents in different type of pots requires different soil mix. Planting succulents in the ground needs different soil mix. Where you live, the weather and the location of your garden also need different soil mix. Below this video in the description box are the different type of soil mix I use. You can also make your own similar to what I make. Cheers
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK i want to thanks you for your explanation but not all the elements of soil mix are found in jordan so can I use perlite and peatmos and compost accepting my greeting
Liz, what is the best type of soil mix of yours is best for superbum. Is it a diva plant?
Not a diva at all. It can even grow in a premium potting mix with added perlite or pumice. It's a summer grower and goes dormant in winter and also not frost hardy.
Kung di po ako nagkaka mali sa dinig. Gagawin nyo po xang variegated? Pano po
Sabi ko I'm "trying" to variegate them. Variegation is a mutation/trauma from pest or disease and also growing conditions. When I find out, I'll make a video to let you know.
I want to see more 😘
Hi Liz, I see sometimes you say your plants are only 18 months oild from a leaf or whatever. With my leaf propagation they shoot at first but then they all seem to look like the same variety even though they aren't and they never seem to get very big... they just stay that size.. I think they need more sun, but in my yard and the way things are sorted I don't know where I can put them and also I don't want to give them too much sun all at once and have them burn. :( I wish you could see what I mean and give advice especially for me LOL. I know I will work it out - Somehow. xox
I always say to pluck and throw method. Where they we're plucked from and grown with roots, is also where you should place them in a pot near the area and they need to be watered everyday or kept moist. I prefer to put master soil mix in the pot and top it up with coco peat for the rooted seedling so I can bury the roots in the cocopeat without them getting wet feet as coco peat dries up really quick...OMG I'm writing a novel...LOL I think I better do a video on this to better explain.
@@GrowingSucculentswithLizK Hehe thank you for your response.. Mine have got past the leaf stage. They naturally came away from the mother leaf. but haven't grown since... and honestly it's been months... The stems are long which makes me say i reckon they need sun. My succulents are 90% in the ground. So when I get leaves should I pluck and leave them in the garden? What I usually do is collect them so I can give them that extra attention - watering etc. I put them in trays with basically your master soil mix and I also use the coco peat per your instruction :) Now that it is cooling off maybe I can transfer them slowly to more sun and see how they go.
I also wrote a book lol
I would love to see a video on this. I have similar issues
I had no idea plants consumed soil
They don't consume soil. The soil is the source of minerals like Nitrogen, magnesium, phosphorus, etc. As the soil decomposes, these minerals are released into the soil.
Succulents use the energy from the sun, or other light and use it to make their food. The ingredients for this process are water (minerals in the soil), carbon dioxide, and light.
As the plant grows, the soil decomposes and release minerals which are absorbed into the plants. This is why the soil shrinks.
There she goes adding this succulent to cart . 😂
Are you selling succulents online or something ?
Just growing these for my garden ATM. Thanks for watching.
Would love to buy some if you’re willing to sell and shipped via usps thanks
