I am looking for advice. I have had this peace lily for maybe 8 months, and it was doing well up until about a month or two ago. I am wondering why it is so sad looking and i was thinking about transferring it to water from soil?
Please, any advice is appreciated

hi, my peace lily is down to one leaf because i left it outside in hot weather on accident and the leaf is very droopy and flimsy. The pot is now way to big for the little leaf so Iâm wondering if itâs best to repot it into a smaller pot or propagate it in water. Please send advice!

Hi I was on vacation and came back with my Starfish snake plant looking like this. Could my husband overwatered it? Do I cut the brown spots off? Any help please

Hi everyone, my roommate is struggling with her palm- do you think this is just from winter dryness in the air or a bigger problem? It is much more yellow irl the roots look alright and she waters once a week

RIP to my Fairy Castle Cactus. Had her for years and started paying attention to her vs ignoring her and I watered too much. Trying to save pieces to start over.

I posted about my fairy castle cactus a couple months ago. Since then I think she got over watered and was not doing well. I just repotted her (right image) so that I could change the soil and check her roots. I also didnât want her in an oblong shaped pot because itâs hard to remove. Sheâs not my favorite to look at as you donât visually see new growth but sheâs done really well. Wishing her well in her new pot!

I ended up removing my African Violets from its pot and getting rid of all of her soil. The self watering pot she was in had been overwatering her and I noticed a bit of root rot (which I cut off.) in addition to that I saw some bugs crawling around in her soil that might of been feeding on her leaves and her roots. I put her in a brand new pot and soil with proper drainage and have her under a grow light. Is there any suggestions on what else I could do to help with the recovering process?

How to get rid of little insects like flying on/over my indoor plants.
What is happening to my leggy echevaria ?! :(( itâs leaves have been falling of over the past few days (about 5) and I donât know what to do. I donât want it to die. It has these black dots/patches on most of its leaves

This is my daughterâs pathetic money tree. Iâm taking it on as a challenge. It didnât help that I dropped something on it and broke the only stem. But I taped it up and now it has a bud!

Ok, so Iâve had this lemon tree for years (itâs from a seed that I planted 2018). During spring this year it started to look sad so I moved it outside in a âwell off you go and take care of your self now, bye bye!â- manner thinking that it needed to decide if it wanted to live or not by it self.
But it just wouldnât die. Itâs been out there during the Swedish âsummerâ and autumn, it even experienced some nights of - 2C° (28F°) recently.
So today I moved it back indoors. Tomorrow it will get cleaned and looked over. Later Iâll trim it down a bit, change some of the soil (and remove some weeds đ ) and place it in a well lit spot (south facing window and a grow light since light isnât a thing that we have too much of up here in the north during winter).
But for now just some acclimation and rest đ
Adding some pictures we (hopefully) can compare it too later đ đ€
