Does anyone know what kind of Philodendron this is? Green petiole with red stripe

Hi! My Florida beauty’s last leaf was all green and the one that’s currently coming in looks like it might be all green too so far(I hope I’m wrong🤞🏼). If the leaf does end up coming in all green would you cut back now or wait for one more green leaf? Also if I do need to end up cutting it back would I cut near the red mark or blue mark? Or neither? I plan on getting a moss pole for it soon, too! I appreciate any help and advice🤍

Need advice please. Plant was in very wet soil, checked pulled out of dirt. Roots may have some root rot. ? Can I put in water? Grow new roots. Thanks.

Noticed this fungus several days if not a week after I repotted into this bigger pot. I had also added some used ground coffee beans (as I read philodendrons like slightly acidic soil) as natural fertiliser - I’m hoping doing either of these did not lead to these issues but if so, help please! Two stems are yellowing, any suggestions on how to remove, identify this type of fungus and what threats it poses?

Hi guys! I just picked up this philodendron from Home Depot but the card only says “philodendron”. Can anyone tell me which type this is? The base looks like it’s moving to the side with roots coming out above the soil! This is my first philodendron so I’m very interested to know! Thanks 💞

Miscounted. There's actually 12 in the pot. I definitely don't have enough space

Rescued this guy from Kroger on clearance to see if I could save him. Last picture is the day that I brought it home. First two is taken today. I snipped the stem on the left slightly, but left everything else alone and repotted with new soil. I have a new stem now popping out on the left. The right leaf is well, not looking great. I just started my plant journey about a month ago so I’m a beginner and not sure if I should leave it alone or snip everything but the new growth. What would you do?

Just purchased this polly this weekend—my first one. Not sure if the leaves curled at the end mean anything bad or is it normal? Multiple leaves and different size leaves.

Got him repotted with new soil and no moss! He was absolutely DRENCHED, we had to literally wring him out 😂 but he’s looking MUCH happier and has really good draining soil now and we put a extra hole in his pot 🥰 thank you all for the advice (and empathy 😜) 🥰🫂 I also ended up repotting all of my plants. Because all of them were still the the soil they came in from the store and since this guy wasn’t in the right soil, I made sure it was actually the right soil for them all 🥹👏🏻 and actually for my philo, we completely resoiled him. We washed off all the soil from the roots and then got him in the new soil so none of the old stuff was still there 🥹

My ppp hates me (except my cuttings in water). Help. I’ve run out of ideas!! My last resort is to chop her again and start afresh. Other, less drastic ideas welcome. She’s in a specialist mix which she seemingly hates. I’m stuck. 😭. I want to love her!

can anyone ID this plant? planta told me it was a heartleaf philodendron, but it doesn’t look like either green or lemon/lime, i am wondering if this is possibly a cupid peperomia?

Did what you guys recommended and snipped the fully white leaf. Almost immediately this beauty popped up and just unfurled!!

New leaf alert! 😍 She’s a lil deformed on one side, this leaf actually grew inside another completely white leaf that i carefully trimmed off for this beauty to come through ❤️

I have a love-hate relationship with this thing. One day she looks gorgeous the next day all the leaves have edema and are falling off. Had some water retention issues, so I finally swapped out her soil and now im doing a little experiment to see if she prefers Hydro or soil.

My guy is just. Losing leaves 😅. There were a few that were obviously dying so I pulled those off and it took no effort at all to pull the leaf off, so I went around checking the other leaves and the ones still on are the ones firmly still on the stem, but the rest came off so ridiculously easy I’m worried something is wrong 😭 my zebra plant already died and I don’t want another one of my plant babies to die 🥺 also, this guy doesn’t have a name yet so if y’all have idea lemme know 🥰

My Brasil has a few vines with upper areas turning brown, but the leaves look fine and there’s new growth coming in. None of the lower parts of any vines look this way. Wondering if I should be concerned. I’m using a well draining soil and I am careful not to water too often. I’m also using a small grow light to supplement because the brightest window in my apartment is northeast facing with a long overhang and another building blocking a lot of light. The plant seems healthy otherwise, I just think it’s weird that a few parts of the vine are browning and that’s it. Note- You’ll see some white spots on the leaves because I have been treating it with a baking soda spray for powdery mildew once a week for a couple weeks, and using a low speed fan for a few minutes to make sure the leaves dry after treating. I’m pretty sure at this point the white spots are the baking soda and not the mildew, but I won’t really know until I do another 2 treatments. It seems to be improving overall, but if I’m causing a problem I want to adjust before I hurt my philo further.
