Hello! I got this alocasia silver dragon from Trader Joeâs on Wednesday and he doesnât look to well:( (I donât keep him in the widow seal like this just have him here for a better picture. His leaves are yellow which I presume is from a sunburn from too much light the first 2 days I had him. He is still in his baby planter pot that has drainage. Iâm a new plant mom too :(
Help!!!, my crouton did not do well with the repot. So I put it outside under a dome for a little bit of humidity and it began to wilt⊠I brought it back inside and I noticed that it was not absorb the water very well. Tonight I put it back in the nursery pot with moist soil and now Iâm just wondering if itâs too late. Should I cut off the leaves or will they revive on their own?

Hey, i need help! So i bought a Croton about two ish weeks ago. When i bought it, it was heavily root bound so i had to repot. i watered when the the soil was dry then let it dry some more before i watered yesterday (it wasn't completely bone dry).

Why is my lemon vine looking limp and sad? It gets plenty of sunlight and Iâm only watering it when Planta tells me to, but the leaves are limp and floppy and it looks quite dejected. Any tips?
This is Victoria, a ti plant inherited from my grandma. Victoria has lived with my family and I for about a year, and she has suffered some...neglect. As you can see, she is currently Not Doing So Hotâąïž but she's still alive and I want to know, how can I save her? * I have bought a new terracotta pot with drainage, and some miracle-grow tropical plant food for starters, though I haven't repotted and fertilized yet. I must also note that the golden pothos babies that are in there (placed by mom) are pretty decisively entangled with the ti plant. I just checked the roots.
What soil is recommended for repotting ti plants? I have rescued one that's in BAD shape and the first thing to do would seem to be repotting her with proper drainage. Would a tropical soil mix work alright?
Enjoying my orchids flower before cutting the inflorescence off to save my orchid :( itâs super dehydrated and needs the energy.
Any ideas on why the ends of my zebra plantâs leaves have gone crispy and brown? Iâve tried moving it between direct sunlight and partial shade but doesnât seem to make a differenceâŠ.New growth all seems happy enough!
Please help! Iâm pretty new to plants. Does anyone know about growing orchids in water? My orchid was struggling from the beginning with lots of root rot. After its bloom I chopped off the stem and read about orchids doing well in water. I thought it would be worth a try. When I made the switch I had to chop off most of the roots because they were squishy and dark green/almost black. I pretty much only have one long root and one short root left. The plant has become slightly less wrinkled but other than that thereâs been no change in about a month. A new leaf has sprouted but isnât growing. Any input?
Hey everyone, I have a blushing philadendron that was neglected at a local nursery. Iâve had it for 8 weeks, repotted into a restaurant quart container (with plenty of drainage holes) to monitor roots and I have not seen any improvement. To the best of my knowledge I donât believe it to have any pests or diseases. Itâs currently in all purpose potting mix, sits on my south facing balcony in the shade. Happy to receive any advice or guidance.
Zz plant has ever so slight browning at the tips.. any ideas why? As far as Iâm concerned itâs not over/under watered⊠Is this set up too far from light?
