Hi! Can anyone help diagnose what's wrong with my husband's Fukien tea bonsai? It's had dry leaves for about a month now and looks very sad. I've repotted it in fresh bonsai soil, watered an fertilised it and it's in a window with plenty of sun. When repotting I noticed several small earthworms which I removed. I know usually they are good for plants with soil aeration etc, but I read some mixed reviews online, so now the soil is new and worm free. The plant is still looking sad. Any help much appreciated!
I’m going through a plant crisis😬 My friend was in charge of taking care of my plants over my long vacation and my lavender plant is on deaths door step. I cut off as much dead as I could but the only parts with green were half dead too. It’s sitting outside and I’m hoping it survives. My tomato plant that I have grown from seed survived my friend but it had some weird half dead looking leaves and very droopy, I added the stake for support. I also decided to replant it, hoping to plant the stem sideways to promote growth farther up the step, but the step snapped in the process of taking the plant out of the pot😭😭 so it’s probably done for too. But on the positive note, I decided to try to recover my orchid plant after I found out that it isn’t dead after it loses it’s flowers😬 wish I knew that sooner. I removed all the dirt, dead leaves, and dead roots from the orchid and moved it to a big cup of water. I was surprised to see there was still some green roots after a couple months of being ignored. I promise I’m not that bad at taking care of plants, but please leave any tips and prayers for my plants
Can my azalea be saved? There’s tiny spots of green still on it but I’m not sure. This heat had been killing it even with regular watering
Help! What is happening to my rubber tree plant? These white specks were not there last week and they are on several of the lower leaves. I have new growth and they are not on them. The plant is growing roots well outside its pot so I am repotting today. I also treat with neems oil spray that contains Castile soap and peppermint oil regularly. What are these specks and what can I do? Thanks for any suggestions.
Hi, Pearl has been in this same tiny pot since I brought her home over 2 yrs ago, should I repot her to a larger pot? Only the first photo is my Pearl. The other photos are not mine nor Pearl, just the first photo.
Can anyone help me and tell me what to do with my plant? I don’t know what’s wrong.
Update: I had noticed browning at the base of the mother plant which spread to a couple pups. Cut, cleaned, and repotted. Didn’t plan on separating but figured it’s the safest bet in case the stress becomes too much. Another pup was hiding as well so it’s a fighter! 🤞🏼✊🏼 There was green moss looking stuff on the roots so I’m not sure if that was the issue. Not sure where it came from. The soil wasn’t hydrophobic so I think it was holding moisture. No real root rot thankfully
How often are you meant to be reporting indoor plants? Do you always have to go a size up or can you trim back and use the same pot?
Okay, I’m new to gardening and bought some clearance plants for low risk practice. This azalea I got from Home Depot. I scrapped the trunk of the plant with my fingernail and saw it was still green so I took it home to try and problem solve with it. It’s got a lot of orange/red leaves, and the ones at the bottom are completely shriveled. Should I just cut the bad shoots and water it regularly or will it need more specific care?
Can someone here help me with my aloe plant? I'm not sure what to due with it to stop it from looking so sad. I don't want to kill my plants I just want to keep them alive that's the whole reason I got this app. It's like an odd green color that doesn't really show up in pictures. Thank you in advance
Lavender update ! She is doing much better now outside ! Can’t wait to watch her bloom !
WHAT ARE THESE!!!!😱😱😱😱 HELP!
Aloe update ! She is looking so much better after a repot (she had some rot on one of her leafs and I removed it and also had a gnat issue so they are gone now! I added some stabilization with a bamboo stick (so no tilting ) I also downsized the pot !! More updates soon Here is a before and after ! Before After !
My stretchy aloe is looking a bit better today ! Hopefully she perks up after a repot into a better pot !
False Heather improvement— I love these guys. I stupidly thought it could handle the desert sun and heat… and it got mad at me lol. I pruned and relocated, now look at all the new sprouts forming! 💜
Can someone tell me if this poor baby is saveable? She’s still got good roots and good color but getting very yellow. I got this app actually so I could hopefully save it. (I also am aware it’s an indoor plant but needed to take it outside to water earlier)
Please help my 2 palms!!! They are turning yellow I only water when the top 2 in. Of soil are dry and I last watered it with compost tea, seeing if it will help, but there has been no change only worse
My fairy washboard looks beautiful and has 6 pups now but I noticed this soft brown base on side of the mother and one pup. Is this root rot? Do I need to repot and separate? I really like having them all together so I’m just not sure.
Does anyone have any tips on keeping this elephant ear plant alive? It was so healthy when I bought it but then I replanted it and have even been keeping it outside during the day so it can get sun
