I absolutely love watching prayer plants get new leafs, so cute, so pretty. 😍

Well…. I’ve had prayer plants for about a week now. One second they’re happy, a few hours later they’re sad and droopy. Here’s what they look like after work today. I know they’re still adjusting to the new environment, but any tips to keep these guys happy? Is this just them praying during the day? They were just watered so soil is still moist but not soggy. They’re by the window with filtered light. It’s about 68 degrees in my house. I’ve been spraying them for humidity and have water sitting close.

Ok yall…. I just picked up this in need of help calathea for 3$. I just repotted and watered, and I’ve been misting daily. I plan on getting a pebble tray going for extra humidity. Theres a bit of damage on the tips of each leaf. It’s in a bright but indirect light area. Any other tips???

Hi! I was just given this prayer plant and need some help! The leaves seem okay for the most part but I don’t think the stems look too healthy. I’m a complete beginner so any tips or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Need some help , I’m a complete beginner when it comes to plants. Been gifted this beauty, she’s healthy but with dry brown spots and one yellow/brown leaf. Now I wonder is it because it was overwatered and might need to be repotted?

Hey gang! Got a triostar not long ago, it seems to not be doing really well in the past few weeks: its losing a lot of leaves, turning yellow and crispy at the tips. it had some mold buildup on it from being in a darker area of the house, so I repotted it and moved it to a dry, lighter spot with indirect light. I'm making sure not to overwater after that mold incident as well. I'd like to know what's bothering it: stress from being repotted frequently, overwatering or am I now underwatering it? Could it be because of any other factors like drafts? Appreciate any help!

Can someone help me? My friend gave me this plant a few month ago and since I have had it multiple leaves have died and you can see where whole roots (I’m unsure what to call them) have completely died off. I know she had the plant outside and now I have it inside near a window so maybe that’s what’s wrong?

my prayer plants old leaves starts to turn crisp and yellow around the edges, but it’s still growing new ones. is this an under watering problem?

What is up here? The diagnosis says Lime in water. I checked my water I use to water my plant with a test kit, zero lime. Perry gets cool steam ‘spa days’ and/or misting on the app schedule. Humidity kept between 40% to 60%.

Hello! I got a Calathea Freddie like 2-3 months ago. It’s in a 4 inch pot and has been since I got it. I’ve been meaning to get a bigger one but keep forgetting. It was doing great for a long time and lately hasn’t been looking too good. Any ideas?

I was worried this plant wasn’t doing well since some of the older leaves have dry tips. But there’s new growth and a beautiful little flower just wanted to share 😍

I know he isn't a real prayer plant, but I thought I could still post him here. decided to repot him, but found out I could split him in half so I did! ^.^ he's doing so well. one of my favorites. I hope he continues to do well under my care.

Hi everyone! First time prayer plant mom here. Bought this triostar yesterday, about to repot it, and separate into two bigger pots, as there are 6 growth spots that I can see. Any tips for this fella?:) thank you!

Got this striped calathea a little while back… it’s been curling since I got it. I thought it might be a humidity issue so I decided to put it in the bathroom, but it hasn’t helped. I’ve also been misting it every other day and I’ve been watering it according to planta. It’s next to a window that gets bright indirect light. One of the leaves has also just decided to flop over and start journeying sideways. Is there anything I can do to help it? All of my other calatheas are thriving and this is new to me 😢

My prayer plant cutting is finally showing signs of new life! Two new stems/leaves appear to be poking out, and there are some little roots. When should I transfer to soil?

someone please help me save my moms plant 😩 i’m guessing it’s a victim to overwatering.
