Hi all, Gandalf here. I just bought my first succulent from Trader Joe's. The brand is called Living Treasures. I know nothing about plants in general. Can I keep the succulent in the pot it came with, or do I repot? It has no drainage on the bottom. I also only get full direct light in the winter, so I understand I should get grow lights? Any particular kind or brand you all might recommend? Thanks!

So, you have more than one plant in there. They need to be removed and repotted individually with a gritty mix in pots with drainage holes.
SANSI and Barrina brands make really good grow lights.
You could do that. They might not all thrive though. They have different watering schedules.
I drill holes in pots all the time.
What plant makes the pink flowers?
Welcome to a new and gorgeous world! Unfortunately you picked a succulent arrangement. It will need to be separated to thrive.
Don’t give up and maybe try another succulent. More is best.
More like your first 6 succulents!
Great now I want one and I already put a bunch outside lmao
Thanks for all the advice. I will repot them all.
Oh my. There are at least 5 different species in there. You really did buy a treasure.
nothin else to add except welcome to the sub gandalf 😀 nice to have a real wizard around here for a change
