This is some kind of air plant which Planta mistakenly called a spider plant. I water it every 3 to 4 days upside down keeping the roots dry and let it drain upside down so the roots don’t get any moisture. For that reason I have not misted it. I also haven’t fertilized it in two years and I know every plant needs to eat. Can someone tell me what kind of air plant this is and how do I fertilize it if I do it all? Thanks🧐

Hello Planta friends, can you help identify this beautiful plant I just got?
Planta doesn’t seem to be able to. It comes out as a Golden Photos which it clearly isn’t.
Thanks for your help!

Any ideas? I’ve inherited some plants from my aunt. Both of the larger leaves have pieces missing so I’m just not too sure. It seems like it’s doing better since there’s a little new growth on it but I’m worried about the yellow around the bottom.

I rescued this absolute beauty that was sitting in literally 2 inches of standing water in its cache pot at Home Depot. I’m pretty new to Hoyas (I have a compacta that’s doing pretty well in spite of me.) The sticker said carnosa, but the leaves look way too long. I’m thinking it looks more like the pubicalyx. Can anyone weigh in?

Apparently the new iPadOS offers plant identification in the Photos app. I don’t know if it’s on phones cause mine is a vintage iPhone 7 lol, but I just noticed it on my iPad

Hey, I got this plant from my mom and wasn't sure what it was, at first I thought it was Alocasia zebrina, but now I'm thinking it could be a type of Anthurium.

Anyone know what type of plant is this? My husband bought it for me but I don’t have any clue what it is.

What would you guys call this? Planta is calling it a marble queen Pothos, but the store called it a philodendron. Thinking it’s a Heart leaf philodendron?

Sorry, this is so wordy. Did Planta mis- identify my plant? 💚👀🤔🌱

This is what is called an air plant and the instructions it came with tell me to water it once or twice a week (so I water it every four days) upside down in a glass of water with the roots out of the water. The idea is you don’t want to get the roots wet. I have had it for several years. Planta IDs it as a “chlorophytum comosum ‘varieg…’” and the picture they show is a green and white striped spider plant in a hanging basket. The instructions they keep giving me is to mist which I have not done because if water drips down to the root section, it can rot the root, that is why it gets watered upside down in a glass of water and then dries upside down so that any water drips away from the root. Also, Planta tells me to fertilize it, again, which leaves me totally up in the air because I can’t get the root wet. Should I put fertilizer in the water and put the plant in upside down? Somebody must be familiar with how to raise these little guys. They are sure cute and I have bonded with this little one and I’m afraid I might kill it. HELP!

Plant identification says this is a polkadot plant. It seems correct. Is mine just really leggy? That’s a word I just learned.
