Hi all, I'm hoping to find out what's wrong with one of my favorite plants. I think it's a lampranthus. I'ts not doing very well and I want to figure out what kind of pest it has so I can treat it. Thanks so much for any advice =)

It seems to be more of a watering issue. The good news is that there is new growth on the stems. Cut off the dead parts. I would consider replanting some of the offshoots when they are bigger. I prefer a pot that breathes and a lighter media that dries out faster or just adjust your watering. Water thoroughly but do not water again until the soil is almost dry.

Ha! At first I thought those are some kind of yellow caterpillars or sawfly larvae. Yeah, on closer inspection, they are yellowed leaves, right? The thick succulent-type leaves threw me off.

Sorry I’m not familiar with this plant, but couldn’t resist commenting.
