• We have babies!

    They might all be packed away in the greenhouse for winter, but so many of our cacti and succulents are growing multiple babies….otherwise known as ‘offshoots’ or ‘pups’.

    Different varieties have different ways in which they grow new plants. These offshoots/pups can be removed and planted to grow a separate plant, the mother plant will then continue growing more and more offshoots. But not all varieties grown pups in this way, many succulents can be reproduced from leaves or cuttings, check out our main Cacti & Succulents page for a whole range of information about propagation methods.
