Is it possible to propagate a rotted orchid through the healthy roots in its potting medium?? My friend gave me her orchid (phaleonopsis) and even though I told her I’ve had very little experience with orchids, she insisted I take it. Suffice it to say I’ve given it root rot. I’m attempting to propagate from the leaves of the plant because they had some stem attached (I don’t know if it will be enough, but I thought I’d try). There are still some healthy roots and I was wondering if it was possible to propagate with those? I’ve seen information on propagating with aerial roots or keikeis, but all that I have are the ones that were in the potting medium. Would this be possible?

Separated this pretty girl from a much bigger peace lily three days ago, and she’s not doing well. I’m totally new at taking care of plants and not sure what to do. Advice appreciated!

I have some snake plant cuttings in water and in a south facing window for 2 weeks now… but no sign of any roots. Has anyone had any luck propagating a snake plant?

Hi. :) Can anyone tell me if I can save these new guys before letting go of this umbrella tree? Where would cut it?

Hey y’all! Got a new plant yesterday- a frizzle sizzle :) she’s very cute. I put her in my bathroom window since it gets the most light, and my brother messed with it and ripped up a bunch of the leaves (had six, now has three). This is the only undamaged leaf that fully came off. I can’t find anything online about propagating this plant. It grows from a bulb. Would I be able to root this in water to propagate it? Or should I just throw it out?

hello i received this silver spotted begonia from my dad and grandpa a few months ago, after many attempts at propagating the leaves i can’t get any roots. this plant is probably almost as old as i am and it just feels too tall to support its self as you can see from the support systems they had put in, i’m not sure what to do. would i have better luck cutting straight from the stem? and why is this one so tall with so little leaves?

Strawberry plant

Please help! My first time planting a grown strawberry plant. When repotting I noticed it is not a single plant but many bound together with a rubber band. Do I leave as is or do I need to separate them?

i was given a propagation of my friend’s rex begonia. she’s been in water for about five days, and i’m starting to wonder when she’ll grow roots. i’ve included a picture of what i thought was the start of a root, but now i’m not sure. i’m keeping her in a dome to up the humidity, will that make her root faster? she’s in an east facing window that gets about 4-6 hours of sunlight per day.

I was gifted this begonia. It has been in this container for a few weeks and it’s finally rooting. How long do I wait to transplant it in soil? Also, the stem looks too long. Can I trim it down without affecting it? This is my first begonia.

Propped this guy and love watching it grow! Do I have to plant it or can I just leave it in the water?

I primed my ficus elástica and it didn’t give off that while milky substance like it did when I pinched it. What does that mean?
