Does anyone have advice or experience chopping established moss pole plants? My PPP needs a pole extension but she’s already pretty unstable even with three garden stakes for support. The top half is pretty well rooted in the moss pole, so when I transfer it to a new pot what kind of soil should I use/does it really need much soil since the roots are in the pole? TIA friends
This is my second time have a philodendron hope and the leaves tend to open tilt backwards instead of reaching up like hands. Does anyone know why this is?

Hi I got this plant on sale at Kroger. I did a good soak to remove everything and re potted it. I took off 2 leaves and propped it up. Is it suppose to look like this? 1st picture is when I first got it Second picture is of it now
i knocked over my white wizard while cleaning 😭it lost about 5 good leaves and 2 are torn. i repotted it next size up since it was time but should i stake it now that’s she’s leaning due to her fall?
I forgot what this little drop in the morning means… does anyone know?
Raise your hand if you were ever “just trying to help” & this happened……… 🙋🏼♀️ 😭 #pinkprincess
I tried to prune her but now I’m worried I killed her. Will it come back??? It’s a Philo Birkin
Today I upsized this philodendron to a 10” pot and moved from under a grow light to the window instead. I’m happy with its progress, but I don’t want it getting bigger than this 10” pot. Is there a way to reduce its growth rate without also compromising its health?
Can't believe I found this gorgeous green congo nuclear at my local nursery today! They also had a strawberry shake ($179) and a spiritus sancti ($299).
Please help! I have found these on my Xanadu Philodendron. I think the white thing is mealy bug nest? Or maybe spider mites? Idk. Then I found this thing in the soil. Full disclosure: I am seeing pests all over my in-ground outdoor plants, specifically mealy worms, 100% correctly identified, but they are on the opposite side of my house and I’m careful (though not fool proof) to clean up before entering another plant’s space. So far I am spraying all of the leaves with alcohol/dawn solution then rinsing, spraying neem oil. I am repotting and was going to water with neem oil solution. We have bees, butterflies, lizards and hummingbirds (and whatever else) I do not want to harm. At any rate, I am grateful for whatever advice anyone can give. Thanks in advance.
How can I best help this Philo Micans??? I brought her home from Facebook Marketplace yesterday and owner said she needed to be untangled. Sure did- went from 2 ft to 6 ft real quick 😳 Her roots are hanging on by a thread and I have no idea how to wind such long vines around the moss pole! Last pic is what she looked like when I brought her home
Any insight as to what type of philodendron this might be? Apologies. As I added the wrong photo before!
Just got this at a local greenhouse!
what’s wrong with the ppp? the leaf is turning brown. i cut it off but it’s still spreading. the leaves turned white because it was getting too much sun. i’m wondering if it’s a root problem? is my pot too big? help. thanks :)
I have a Pink princess, I was wondering, what’s the best way to position your moss pole so that they have support but also dont just grow on one side?
Hey there! I am new to the plant lovers world, and so excited to start this journey. I adopted this Ring of Fire yesterday, and can clearly see it’s not thriving. Too much sun? Not enough water? Thanks in advance
Hi, Any suggestions on how to approach this plant? A neighbor has had it for fifteen years and not sure what options are best related to repotting, dividing, etc... that's ahead of time for thoughts, it's outside in Florida...
❤️❤️❤️
Hi everyone! Can anyone tell me what kind of philodendron I have? The app is telling me it’s a blushing but I’m not so sure. Thanks!!!
