Hi all! I just purchased a dieffenbachia (it looked floppy when I got it). Should it be floppy like this or am I doing something wrong/can I fix it? It is partially under a grow light and gets a little bit of sun through those door windows beside the grow light.

Help! First time repotting my plants. I was looking at these compressed coconut brick that super expand,I see on Amazon. Do you recommend these? If not, what then?

Asking for a friend (really!) - my friend wants to buy this plant but she doesn’t know what it is (not labeled) and was wondering if its an easy one to care for. I googled it but none of the searches gave me a specific name, just lumped it under tropical plants. Thank you all!

Hey, my room is pretty dark, and I’m looking for plants that like shade. Anyone know of any plants that prefer shade! Any help would be appreciated thanks!!

Just got this monstera (it is my first one) and I’m very excited, I am waiting a few days for it to get settled in before I repot it, but are there any tips for what else I should do? Cut roots, cut leaves, how to shine the leaves because they seem to have a dusty powder on them although you can’t tell. I wiped the leaves with water and neem oil but it didn’t take the white off completely. Open to any suggestions!

She’s so happy 🥲. I’ve been waiting for this inflorescence to open for weeks. We got home late last night from a weekend trip and she was open and waiting for me, along with a new leaf 🥰

OMG guys great news! I got a snake plant, which rounds out my collection of plants for now! A ZZ, a Hoya Rangsan, and a Snake! So excited for her to join! Big Harry Potter nerd, so obviously had to name her Nagini 💚💚💚🐍🐍

Someone please help. I bought this camouflage dieffenbachia from a nice pet shop.. I understand adjust but she’s just been going downhill. I tried everything and gave less sun, more sun, water correctly. It even dried out In between. I did get another plant from this place and it spread mealy bugs.. but I don’t see anything on her and I don’t think she would decline so rapidly. I even tried more humidity and just stopped

I bought this about a week ago in healthy condition (first picture) 2 days after bringing it home it started to yellow and it’s so sad. Any ideas of what could be going on? Any tips to help my baby thrive? Thanks.

I’m so sad! What is going on?! I would be so grateful if someone can help me. Just last week i had a beautiful new leaf open up and this morning i woke up to this leaf! All the other leaves are healthy and seem to be doing fine. Any suggestions on what i need to do so no other leave turns yellow? Or what did i that caused it? Thank you.

My local supermarket had a false aralia “Gold Coast” so I had to buy it. I am pretty good at plants but I have already killed this one twice so I am here to ask for advice! Both times, the plant was perfectly healthy, and then a bottom leaf suddenly turned brown and fell off, and very slowly over the course of a couple of months it crept up the plant and killed it. I still have no idea what I did wrong. Any ideas?

Hey guys! I have two monsteras here, one came off the other. I have one in my fish tank, it looks absolutely gorgeous.. while the other is older, and potted, no fenestrations like the other.. what could be going on? I would love to have the one in the pot looking the same.
