Do the plants actually grow larger? Do they ever out grow their containers? Is is great if they do :-0 may be a very siily question!....Thank you

Sadly we've never managed to keep one long enough for it to outgrow its container. We go on holiday for a couple of weeks and come back to a dying plant :( But they're lovely for the 6 months we keep them alive for.

I gave it as a gift but I would think if you can get it to grow at all you way ahead of me. I did read somewhere they suggest cutting back anything that extends out of the container.

Although technically possible, it is incredibly difficult, i.e. nearly impossible, for succulents to actually grow larger in this environment. In fact, they will more likely than not die.

I wished I could answer the question. Mine never grew, maybe a bad batch. It hapens. Do not give up.

I have mine in large pots and they are doing well. Out of the soil I'd say about 4', maybe they'll grow another foot or two but I don't expect more than that. At least not in the pots.

The opposite. My experience is that they slowly die. I've been using cactus food and regular waterings, and yet, they still shrivel up. It could be my inexperience as a succulent affecionado, bur growth is something that has not happened.

Yes they do,,, heavy duty,,, I've moved them full with plants full grown with no problem.

Well. The answer is no. But u may be interested to know that the one that I purchased from Amazon never grew. V

I was well pleased with my order, but my intent was not as specific. I just wanted to see what they were like, as i had never experienced succulents. They are fun, and can be placed in many different vessels for many different effects. Mine are all still alive!!!! i would suggest you contact the seller to see what they have at this time. Sorry, not as knowledgeable as you.

Low light plants like Anubias, java fern, and Crypts. I dont know if I would try it with others that need more. Definately not flourishing but very slow steady growth. I didnt buy it with the expectations that it would grow stuff, but tried it out just to see. I think I would go with something more powerful if growing plants was your goal.

Hi, sarann. I planted mine in dense shade with a lot of water and dappled shade with less water. The heavy shade grew profusely but didn't bloom much. The dappled shade were sparser but bloomed and that was the only area that had any come back this year. So you will see some growth regarless of how much shade they have. I wish that I had bought multiple packs and mixed them with seed starter or sand to spread them out more and get more coverage.

Charles it is a tediously slow growing plant. I ordered 2 plants. One came in march, and we had it indoors till it got warmer in Arizona. I ordered a 2nd one because the first was taking so long to sprout a new leaf. That one was healthier looking when it arrived. We took both out in May.. when it got to be hot outdoors. They have been growing beautifully since. Adding miricle grow helped. Good luck!

Like everything about plants, there are so many variables (season, amt of light, feeding),but I would say for your tiny containers, plant no more than a month before the event. That will give the plants time to become established, but not enough to outgrow the container. Love the idea and so will your guests!

I have one (its about 3 months old now) and I live just South of Seattle. Currently, it is in my windowsill and doing just fine and I have heard that you can plant them outside as well as they are very hardy! So, a definite yes to indoor growing and a tentative yes if you want to put it outside. :)

I'd say the quality of mine was really good, maybe 2 bigger plants but not too big . I can fit about eight 6 "pots with small coleus plants because they don't bush too much but not a lot. If you have the space, I'd recommend a bit of a bigger size. After the first few weeks, you'll want a bigger one probably lol!

You can give them a try. These plants like warm weather. I grow mine in big pots with a tomato cage in the center. They grow very nice in the pots and vine up the cage w/assistance and direction. If you have the room and can bring them inside as the temperature gets cooler in the fall you will get a longer life from them. If you do not have the ability to do this then you will not get too many flowers or beans from the plant.

It all depends, if you have small baby plants yes but they are quite small. So probably think about something bigger. Hope it helped.

How long since you received the plant? Maybe provide the plant with some plant food. They also love the sun so maybe your plant isn't getting enough sunlight or too much? You could be potentially over watering or under watering it. I water my plant once a week and it has been growing beautifully.

Not a single one of the seeds grew for me, I researched how to grow them online. I soaked them in warm water over night before planting then used a covered seed starter and kept it in sunlight indoors for weeks. Dug up a few, not even a root. So assuming you can even get them to grow at all, who knows?
