My first post, found this gorgeous Pink Princess today. Immediately repotted in a potting soil/perlite/orchid bark mix and gave her a big drink. 🤩 Her roots were very healthy, hopefully she takes repotting like a champ. Anyone who has a thriving PPP feel free to leave advice so I can make sure she lives her best life. 😁

I bought two small pink princesses in mid January. One of them they weren’t sure she would live or not so they gave me her for $5. She has one big healthy variegated leaf on it and the other is a solid pink leaf. I recently cut the pink one off and a new growth started, and now there is ANOTHER solid pink leaf. Am I doing something wrong?

This is my heart leaf philo, my very first plant and the one that started my addiction to plants. I bought it from a woman a few years ago. She had it planted in a wire birdcage and that cage was planted down in a pot. I repotted it right after I bought it. I pulled the cage up and planted it in another pot with new dirt. Looking back, I now wish I had removed the plant from that cage then. Being brand new to the plant world at that time, I had no idea how big it would get or that it would eventually need to come out of that cage. This is where I desperately need some advice. She badly needs to be repotted with fresh dirt. The part of the plant that has been in the cage has not been getting sufficient light and has been very crowded in that area. The new leaves are having a hard time getting out and uncurling. I have also noticed that in this same area the new leaves are piggybacking off of other leaves if that makes sense. Some of the new leaves are small and extremely delicate. Over the last few years the plant has grown in/out of the cage-every part of the cage. There is a trellis standing up next to the pot that supports a large part of the plant. Due to the size and the way it has grown there was no way for me to physically take the plant out of the cage without causing great damage. I asked my son to remove the top of the cage as well as about half of the vertical cage “wall” using wire cutters. Hopefully you can see in the pictures what I’m left with. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to remove this plant in the easiest, safest way possible? I’m assuming it will take a few people to get this done. I don’t want to do this but I’m afraid I’m going to have to remove it in pieces, placing those pieces in water until roots start growing and then pot those pieces in one big pot☹️☹️I greatly appreciate any and all suggestions!!

Does anyone know what is causing the spots on my black cardinal philodendron? The older leaves have had them since I got the starter plant about 8 months ago. Finally getting new growth and today noticed the spots on the new growth as well. Not on all leaves and no pests I can see.

Show me your pink princess 😍 I just picked my first a week or two ago. She’s just tiny now but I would love to see others and how they are maturing!

I just repotted this. I hope it’s not in too big of a pot. It’s still coming to root from a plant my friend propagated for me. Any one have any thoughts?

Does anyone know what this plant is? It was sold to me as a melanochrysum back in November. I got it as a plug. Now that it is starting to get bigger, I am questioning if it’s the right ID. Especially with the petioles I am getting now. Appreciate any help or clarification!

This leaf on my ppp just unfurled, will it stay this color or harden off and turn more green?

What is going on with the leaves?? I’ve been keeping an eye on the whole plant and there doesn’t appear to be anything else out of the ordinary. New leaves come in and they have no spots. But eventually spots develop. I use fish tank water or filtered well water. I use a hygrometer so it’s never over watered. It’s in a mix of potting mix, coir, perlite, orchid bark, and a little pumice. In a west facing window. I’ve researched it and have found the majority of people saying 3 things lol so now I’m coming here.

Is my white princess getting too much direct sun? I’m still trying to find the best spot for her- currently I placed her in a South-facing window, hours of sun but filtered by windows with UV protection (I’m told). The potential issues I’m seeing are: -The top leaves are looking more yellow green. -Some leaves have brown spots too, which I learned may be common in the white parts of the leaf. She’s been in that spot for almost 2 months. Thank you! 😊
