This is my precious philodendron fuzzy petiole. I potted her up a while back and then staked her up cuz her new leaves were unfurling and only half the leaf was greening. She gets between 50-60% humidity. I still have to “help” the new leaves and mist almost daily. I recently realized they like to crawl. Any tips?
Got this cebu blue in October (I think). She’s growing great. Any tips on helping her fill out?
Am i supposed to trim my dragon tree? I know I have her in a pot that’s too big.
This is a Blue Jelly Bean sedum that unfortunately started stretching and the leaves became farther apart due to the grow light being too far away. After moving the light much closer it has started to fill out and it is now growing really well. Since there is no way to really fix a plant that has grown like this, should I maybe cut the top part of this plant off and start another? It’s almost time to repot it anyway so I was thinking of planting the top and the remaining bottom in a pot together. If so, how much should I take off? 1/2? 1/4? What is the best way to do this to ensure success? I appreciate any advice!
I received these cuttings a while ago and just transferred them to soil as they had rooted well. Does anybody know what to expect ? Will it need a support like moss pole and how to care for it ? Thank you plant friends.
I have a collection of rainbow glasses and vases (but I’m still looking for orange lol) I have a few kinds of pothos and a silver inch plant in a few but I was wondering what other plants have the potential to stay living in water?
okay i need help. pothos consistently don't like me. i give them light but not so much that the leaves burn. i let the soil dry out enough before watering, even letting it get a little wilty. i make sure water gets to the roots but it's in well draining soil and a pot with drainage. it's not too cold/hot/or dry in my house. the plant was doing well when i bought it, no pests or anything. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?!?!
Is gathering my plants around the humidifier an appropriate way to mist? I love the way they look all gathered around like bffs. 👯♀️ 🪴
I have a rubber tree that’s about 2-3ft and my pride and joy. I replanted it in the fall as it was very root bound, yet since then I’ve seen absolutely no new growth. Any suggestions as the weather warms here? I want this baby to hit the ceiling! It gets lots of good indirect/direct light and I recently added some fertilizer…
Grew this baby from a corm that I thought rotted but pulled through 🌱 Any advice on transplanting from sphagnum to soil? 💚
I noticed this little worm in my tomato plant soil… is this a tomato hornworm larvae or pot worm? looks a bit short to be a pot worm but want to make sure whatever it is…. that it’s not damaging to my tomato’s.
I bought this jade pothos and it has one variegated (?) leaf and stem, with a new leaf starting to grow. Should I try to pot it separately and see how it does on its own? Leave it be? Get rid of it? I’m not sure why it’s like that.
When Planta says “liquid fertilizer” is that a *full watering with fertilizer water* or just adding the teaspoon of fertilizer? THANK YOU!
I noticed about a week ago my fittonia was drooping and the leaves were going limp. I moved it to a brighter spot because I thought it wasn’t getting enough light but turns out I overwatered it ): so the internet told me to repot into fresh dry soil and I did so a couple days ago. How long should I wait before I water again?
I am very, very new to plants and the plant identifier keeps giving me different results which don’t seem to be matching what I have. Can anyone tell me what this is? Thank you in advance!
Stumbled upon this reel last night……was trying to figure out what kind of cacti this was to no avail! Anybody recognize it?
So, I’ve been putting off repotting this guy for a while 😅 but when the time comes I’m planning on repotting it in a taller type planter. I was going to repot it normally and leave space in the planter to hide the bare stem, but out of curiosity, are there any benefits/drawbacks to covering the stem with the soil mix? It wouldn’t grow new roots, would it?
Hi! My evergreen is flowering, which is great because that means I'm doing my job. I don't particularly love these flowers and there is also new growth at the base. I'm debating cutting off the flower buds to allow the energy to go to the new plant at the base. What would you do?? Any advice is welcome 🫶🏻
Bought this today at Kroger. It was labeled “Monstera sp.” but when I scanned it with Planta it said it was a heat leaf Philo. Any idea what it might be?
Hi all! Anyone able to help identify this plant? I couldn’t find the name from when I bought it and every one used to try and identify it hasn’t worked out. It’s got long vines with these same leaves all over them, little bit of a white vein showing through them.
