Trying to see if this guy will grow new roots. I’ve had him four years but this year was tough on him for some reason. I cut away all the rotten roots and took some leaves for propagation. Should I put this guy in water or soil? Or is he a lost cause?

I love the 3 pack of tiny stackable pots from dollar tree for my props. They fit 2in pots perfectly, and you can squeeze in 3in. They also have a 28 pack of plastic cups that when cut fit perfectly as well. I also use the stackable pot to bottom water my props easily.

Hi! Got this cherry blossom seed kit as a gift from a friend. However, reviews online say nobody has been able to get them to germinate with the suggested guide (peeling, freezing for 30 days, greenhouse in a bottle, etc.) , but by just planting them in potting soil and watering as you would any other seed. Suggestions? TIA!!!

I took this new shoot off of our lilac bush a few weeks ago. At first I didn’t think it was going to make it as the original leaves died off but then it grew these new leaves. My issue is that most of new leaves look nothing like the original; there is one little stem that does so Im highly confused! Last picture is the mother plant; a Bloomerang Lilac, first is of the leaves that look nothing like the original, including the leaf pattern and the second photo is the one leaf set that looks like the original lilac bush.

I’ve got some healthy roots establishing in water and some seem ready to transfer to another medium. It’s my first time and I’m petrified of losing them all in the process. Mostly pothos (snow queen and marble queen), a couple red maranta and peperomia raindrop. Any tips or tricks? Thank you in advance!! 🪴🌱💕

My daughters and I rescued a clearance rack mixed pot and found this little orange stowaway. I know it’s a moon cactus… but can I propagate from just the top like this? (There is no moon cactus in the mixed pot)

How long should I wait to separate this philodendron pup? Should it go right into soil or water?

Hello! I am new to the plant world and was given this starter kit for forget me nots and I planted the seeds about a week ago. I’ve got these little sprouts and I don’t want to kill them, any advice to keep them growing? I’m in an office with no windows but I have a led grow light that has a timer of 8/10/12 hours on it. I also have a few other plants in here as well. All brand new to me. But I want this little guy to succeed.
