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 🥰
All my beauties in one spot 😊😊😊💚💚💚💚
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 💚💚💚🐍🐍
Rearranged my plants and look at all this foliage 😋💚🌿
my striped calathea is not doing well at all, have been super busy lately and neglected my plants - what is going on with her? she seems almost like infected with something
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.
Hoping these leaves push themselves out soon 😂😅 they’ve slowed down trying to both squeeze through the top lol!
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.
inherited a few new plants this weekend! excited to see how they all grow in my increasingly large jungle :-)
Hi everybody, no change with my plants so far. I named the Hoya Rya and the ZZ Mia. I know that I should focus on taking care of these and if I get more plants then I probably won’t take care of them and just focus and learn about a few at a time, but these plants are honestly a little too easy. I know it sounds weird but I was so hyped to take care of plants and now I water them every 24 days or something, and then spritz one every 6 days. So, I’m kinda wanting more plants because mine are boring. I’m not gonna actually do it, because I need to take care of these a little bit more first before just getting new ones, but honestly a little bored with them 😅 just wishing I could be more present in their lives I guess lol. I don’t know if there’s a way to do that, but if anyone has any magic tips then that would be helpful
Found this variegated leaf on my monstera delicioasa today! Almost pooped my pants 🤭🤭✨
Hello there! I was wondering if you think this is a solid leaf philodendron or a monstera of sorts. The leaves appear to be have ripped making the holes appear to be going all the way through. Thank you in advance! (Also I’m keeping her quarantined until I can clean and repot her in a fresh soil mix in case of bugs/mites lol )
so many flowers, and more growing in!
What vendors do you recommend for online purchases of rare or variegated plants?
Hey!! A black thumb here 😅 My heart has finally healed from my last dead plant, and I went and got two new ones. A ZZ and a Hoya Rangsan. First time trying out Planta so I hope that’ll fix some things for me! So far adoring my new plants. Especially the ZZ. Plants that don’t flower are just so pretty. Some people just think color and delicacy are beautiful, but I think ground cover, succulents, big leafy plants, and small green ones are the most beautiful. Cross your fingers for me this goes well!! Also any advice on how to take care of these two would be appreciated. Or if you have any name ideas! I really like to name my plants. Call me crazy
Hello everyone! Just got this baby monstera, I have it on the corner of my desk at the moment, wondering if that’s too much light? It’s a south facing window, it mainly catches morning light coming from the background of the picture. Due to the angle i get mostly indirect light by late afternoon. Should I back it off and maybe put it on the ground?
