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!

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!!!

Hey everybody! I’m new to taking care of plants and this app has been super helpful. I have a question, so I recently repotted my philodendron when I purchased it because it didn’t have holes and I’ve noticed that the center of soil seems to sit lower than the rest. Im wondering if I need to add more soil or if that’s normal for these plants. I’m adding the best picture I could take in hopes that this helps give you an idea of what I’m talking about. Thank you!!!

I think my Pink Princess is losing its pink. I’ve had it for a few years and it used to be much bigger but it got out of hand so I took some cuttings and started over. It’s in an East facing window and gets lots of light. Do PP’s just stop producing pink leaves after a while?
