Monocarpic Palms
If you have trouble with your monocarpic palms succulents, you may want to cut off the flowering stem. This is a common mistake, and some gardeners have succeeded in keeping their plants alive by doing so. But in most cases, this method only results in a dried-out plant. Some gardeners have had success keeping monocarpic succulents alive by cutting off the flowering stem before it starts to bloom. Here’s how to do it safely.
Unlike polycarpic plants, monocarpic succulents flower once, produce a single fruit and die after the flowering phase. This is different than polycarpic plants, which bloom multiple times and produce seeds. The process of flowering requires a lot of energy, so monocarpic succulents tend to die after just one bloom. In contrast, polycarpic plants produce many flowers and produce a multitude of seeds to propagate themselves.
Aeonium and sempervivum are two examples of monocarpic types of succulents. Their flowering rosette will last for a couple of years after which it will die. Other monocarpic succulents, like the cactus, will flower only once and then die. However, the lifespan of a single flower is still quite long, with the longest-lasting species such as the Agave taking 25 years to bloom.
