So apparently Billie is going to give me 2 new leaves. Not sure how I only saw one. I didn’t even notice the one with the actual leaf on it haha I only noticed the taller stem

Hello :) can anyone tell me what these little brown spots are on my Birkin? I dont see any pests moving around. She's still putting out leaves and seems very healthy otherwise?

The soil doesn’t look too great on my pink princess. I bought it small in August 2025. It’s been growing okay or so I think at least, but wondering if I should repot it? This is the first indoor plant I’ve had pretty much so I don’t know a ton!! Thanks so much!

My white wizard has been growing for about 1.5 years and is doing well :) It’s put out 4 new leaves since the start of summer Should I chop it and propagate the top come spring time???

I wanted to show off the newest leaf on my philodendron. I’m excited to see it mature. This is also my first year collecting plants. Wish I would’ve started sooner 🙈

Repot and new moss pile, I’m hoping for a very happy plant and amazing growth!!

It was time to water her. But in a last second decision, I repotted her. Same size pot, but a clear one so I can see what’s going on. I did mix in some orchid bark and a little bit of my soil mix to add more drainage as the soil I received her in always stayed to wet for my liking. Here’s the before and after. I probably shouldn’t have done it, but it’s too late now haha

~6 months into my houseplant obsession (my life raft since a traumatic breakup in April) & I have made my first moss pole!!!! I got a good sized Burle Marx Philo for $14 on marketplace and boy, look at those roots reaching!! I have been worried about needing to train a plant, like a Pothos, to climb, but clearly this Burle is begging for it. I am so excited for this new step in my plant journey. It feels like a deeper commitment to the plant itself; I now have the means & skill to encourage my other climbers. Neem oil smells funny but it also smells like no pests! Moss poles look ugly but also look like a trust fund. Thanks for being here.

this is kinda a “keep or throw” situation for me right now. i have a baby named pickle, not really sure if planta is correct on what type of philodendron it is so i call all my plants by their names. THE QUESTION IS.. do i keep this freak of nature or send it off on a vacay forever…

I’m getting the first new leaf since purchase a few weeks ago. I’m excited. I’m thinking it’s gonna be a big one.

Take this as a reminder to not give up on your silver sword philodendron! She’s been sad for months and I’ve tried EVERYTHING (different light, water type, water frequency, water amount, misting, temperature, humidity, repotting). I was so close to declaring her a lost cause, but what do ya know one day she woke up no longer looking depressed and I couldn’t be happier.

Update on my pink princess after chopping her in half 5 months ago. One of the top cutting vines continues to grow wildly and is back up to 5.5ft tall from the 3ft she was after I made the cut. The bottom “chopped” vines have pushed out two and five new growth points each and have grown about 1ft taller. The photos show her now, what she looked like right after I cut her in half and repotted the top pole in with the bottom, and some of the new growth points.

I finally got a white princess, traded two plants for one that turned into 6!!!

Newest leaf on my Jose Buono 🤩

I was given this philodendron brasil and it was viciously murdered. Suspect attached. I propagated as much as I could and replanted in same pot. Do we think it looks like it might survive?
