I purchased this plant looking like this. Do you guys think the leaf will ever look better?? Or is there a deeper problem I’m not seeing

Florida Beauty and ‘El Choco Red, new babies. Care package from plant bestie that made my entire week. They came with a terracotta self watering planter that sadly broke during transit but I will attempt to repair it.

Hi!! I’ve had this pink princess for a little over two weeks. I had to repot it from its nursery pot as the soil was hydrophobic. I did this about a week ago. Today it is dropping leaves. Should I be concerned? What other factors might be contributing to this? She is placed near an ac unit but doesn’t have direct airflow on her. I mist her twice a day to keep the humidity up as well.

Would anyone know why my heart leaf philodendron is growing so long in between leaves? It is in a north facing window, is it a light issue? Thanks!

POV you strike up a convo with a nice lady in the houseplant section at Home Depot, and she says “come out to my car I have something for you”…….

I just picked these up at my local plant rescue (nursery) and Planta tells me they are both blushing philodendrons. I think the bigger is a Prince of Orange but would love your help in identifying them! TIA

I think it’s time for a bigger pot (only in 4” now) for my mystery philo. However, she has a new growth coming in. Does this mean pot is fine as is, or should I just wait until the new leaves unfurls to repot? Or just go for it?

new leaf will be the biggest yet (with NO mechanical damage from Yours Truly!) and little twinnie has also emerged As an aside, I hate how I can never get an aesthetically pleasing photo of this plant 🙄

Both of my PPP are putting out puny little leaves. One even came out black at the tip and deformed. Any advice? I just put them both under a grow light to see if that helps. The leaf before these two was gorgeous (also pictured).

She’s so dramatic! Regina is pushing out a bunch of new leaves (yay!) but she looks depressed asF. I trimmed a lot of dead/mushy/crowded leaves last week last Monday before watering, and she’s been looking like this since Tuesday morning. Maybe she didn’t like the trim? I bottom water once a week because it’s hot aF where we are and she doesn’t get too dry in between. Also she was only in direct light for these pics but she lives in a northern-facing window box that’s under a roof overhang so while she gets plenty of bright light, it’s rarely direct. Sometimes I let her sit on the patio in the shade to feel the wind

Hello! I just got a pink princess from Lowe’s. Right now she’s grouped with an Alocasia and I wanted to see if this was an okay set up. The green house is in the corner of a west facing and north facing window. Any other tips for keeping them alive would be appreciated!

My Brasil has seemingly decided it doesn’t want to be a brasil anymore. Maybe it got too Chile.
