As far as I know this is a McColley’s Finale. It looked the same amount of unwell when I bought it. I removed a bad off leaf, put some worm castings on the soil and bottom watered it with a water/superthrive mix. It’s not looking any better or worse imo, but it’s growing a new leaf. The soil isn’t retaining water, it’s not root bound and I see not pests. What should I do to perk this little one up? Or should I leave it be? Surely they don’t always look like this.
My Paraiso Verde - Perry - has grown so much from a tiny starter in May to now. I have never used a moss pole and I know it will eventually need one. But, when do I know it's time to add it? He's still upright, one leaf is over 6" and 3 others are over 4" and there are at least 2 more budding. I see nubs for aerial roots starting to form. He's not ready for repotting. Do I repot anyway and make room for the moss pole? Or just wait a little longer? I'm open to any advice or insights. Thanks.
Anyone know what type of philodendron this is? And any tips?
I was told this is a philodendron, does anyone know what this is????
New philo ! I got this baby about a day ago and she is so pretty I love her ! She is getting lots of top sun and I repotted her (she was root bound a bit ) and she is doing great ! Any tips ? Plant - Philodendron Brasil
Hi! It’s my first post here. The leaves on my billitiae looked a littler bit scorched and dry, so I moved it to a little bit less sunny space. Unfortunately I think it got even more sun in its new spot, and these spots developed on two of the leaves. Every other leaf is fine though, so I’m wondering: Is it a light issue? My planta dr suggests either light or a watering issue, but wouldn’t more leaves be affected if it was a watering issue? Thanks! Gabriel
Could anyone help me ID this? I bought it for my mom and there was no identification 😭
What is the best ratio of potting soil/perlite/orchid bark for heart leaf philodendron, lemon lime philodendron and pink princess philodendrons? Thank you!
Double inflo!
I saved this lil gal a while back. She had maybe 3 leaves and very weak stem. I’m guessing she needs more light? I had zero clue on them, same as all of my plants lol but after seeing how leggy she has gotten, I’m not sure she’s supposed to look like a vine lol She’s in partial afternoon/evening sun. Watered just before taking these pics. She pulls the moss pole over with her wild growing ways. I’m not sure I can pin her to it anymore, or what I should do with the roots showing? Will she attach to a trellis of some sort?
Hello, philodendron family! 👋🏼 I have had this pink princess philodendron for about a month. When I purchased this plant, it appeared to have some rust fungus so I would spray the leaves with copper fungicide, but had no other issues. I originally had it placed under a grow light and would alternate watering and misting on a weekly basis. The leaves have recently become droopy, the pink variegation is turning brown and soft, the tips of a few leaves are slightly curled, and the tips of new leaves have dried out. I have moved it to an enclosed porch so it could receive some indirect sunlight and have been bottom watering in a pebble tray to encourage humidity. With these efforts the plant still seems to be struggling. What are some potential causes of these physical changes and how can I improve the health of this plant? Any advice is greatly appreciated!
The free mystery plant had a little growth spurt suddenly. Honestly not entirely sure what kind of philo this is. The app thought it was Jose buono and now it that it's grown up a bit the app really can't tell, it was way off with it's guesses. Possible ring of fire or other less common variegation I suppose and two serrated leaves. Mostly yellow variegation but the chartreuse has a nice creamy tan variegation. Pretty sure I just pot this guy only a couple weeks ago, so seems to be adjusting quickly
Full plant recovery mode over here! 🤞🤞 I hope they survive the move/settle then replanting/move again …they have had a wild few months but they are finally home and I will do my best to keep them happy! Any tips would be appreciated!
Does anyone know what this might mean? I’ve never seen it do this before. It’s only on a few leaves. The spots are not dried out, if that helps. Could it be a reaction to fertilizer I recently used? The timing would be right… 🤔 TIA
Please help ID. I'm not 100% I've got this right. It was a half dead home depot clearance deal. Planta is way off saying Brazil or heartleaf philo... google said el choco and/or Black gold depending on the angle of the pic. The leaves are someone velvety.
My first philodendron! It’s a pink Naomi but it wouldn’t let me choose that so eh whatever! Welcome home Naomi 🥰
Check out the variegation on these new leaves! They’re also almost the size of my hand. This lady is thriving and I love bragging about her!
Gloriousum lovers, show me what you’re working with! 🌿✨ I’m obsessed with this velvety beauty and would love to see how yours are growing. Drop a pic of your Philodendron Gloriousum and let me know what kind of pot you have it in. Nursery pot, ceramic, terracotta, clear? I’m especially curious how everyone’s styling theirs since it’s a crawler! Let’s inspire each other 🪴💚
Hey y'all ! Pretty new here. Was wondering if anyone has any ideas on what's going on with this white night. Have it under a grow light, watered 2 weeks ago, just repotted last night and treated with fertilizer, super thrive and arbor fungicide. Noticed this before reporting and watering though. Any ideas on why it's getting a little soggy and curling ? Thanks for any help y'all can provide !
My mother was gifted what we think is a Philodendron Xanadu and she is not the best at caring for plants. It wasn’t getting enough light or water, so I took over for her. Currently, the plant is struggling. Planta’s analysis says it was underwatered and then overwatered, and I have been trying my best to bring it back from that brink. Is this even a Xanadu though? I’m starting to wonder if it’s a Ring of Fire. Any advice would be appreciated. What looked like a new growth broke off almost completely and I’m unsure if it can be propagated or how to help the plant heal from something like that. I hope I haven’t hastened its demise trying to save it.
