A little plant rehab. My Lilly girls ended up with lime & brown drooping leaves after the heavy Florida downpour. So Im repotting & allowing their roots to dry for a few hrs. In a few days watering them with slow liquid fertilizer. 🤞

You know what they say, when a toddler is quiet they’re getting into trouble. Do I just repot or do I need to rehab her a bit? Newish to plants so this is the first time I’m dealing with something like this.

See below post. I forgot to include a picture.

I have an anthurium with two leaves that have yellowed. I have checked absolutely everything, and I think she may need to be repotted. What is the best type of soil to repot an anthurium in. TIA.

Money Tree repotted, fertilized with liquid fertilizer and watered place under led. (Backstory: wasn’t getting enough sunlight/yellow leaves/drooping). Hope this works.

So my cat has eaten all of the leaves off of my watermelon peperomia. I realize it may be hopeless but does anyone have any advice on how to save it? Should I cut down all the stems or just leave it be and hope for the best?

Advice needed. I transferred my watermelon plant from a raised bed to in the ground. The first picture was less than 12 hours I moved it. The second picture is what it looked like before. The app suggested water it more. Day 3, and it still looks like this. Any magical tips?

My partner got this cholla cactus from San Diego about 6 months ago and it seems to be pretty much dead. I’m asking because there’s a lot of sentimental value attached to it and if there’s absolutely anything I can do to save it I will! Any help is appreciated!

Hey all, it got cold where I live last night and I didn’t think to bring my basil in. It was in great condition and now it’s sad and shrivelled. Any advice to help save it? I have brought it inside in well-lit area Thanks!

I’m worried about my guy here- I got him from a yard sale so my guess is a flamingo plant? I’m 1) not sure he’s getting enough light and 2) not sure how to help this leaf. Should I trim the leaf? Seems like it could be a symptom of a larger problem… help!

Is there any saving this? And what kind is it? Pot was busted and looked rough when saved it from Lowe’s

Hey. 👋🏻 This ficus benjamina has been pretty neglected for about 4 years; it's been in a fairly sunny windowsill and gets watered now and then, but is looking quite sorry for itself. I've just repotted (it was pretty snug in the original) but haven't done anything else yet — could anyone suggest the best course of action? Should I prune a bit, as it's so leggy? It's got some fresh leaves on it.

Hi! Great news from Rya! She used to be doing so terrible, but I moved her to the kitchen and she has fully regained her deep vibrant green! On the road to recovery! ❤️🩹

My mom gave me a plant for me to nurse back but all the roots had root rot other than like 1 inch in a few spots. And idk how to fix it😭
