Hi, I have a prayer plant and I accidentally left it outside in the 30°f weather the last few days while I was out of town and now it looks like this. Have I doomed this plant to die? Will it make a come back? What can I do to help? It's inside now
Help!! My marantha is trowing a tantrum. It was growing tons of leaves for weeks, but they curled up and haven't really opened. I got her in the spring of this year and haven't repoted her yet.
Hi, Iâm new to the Rattlesnake Calathea. I have a Whitestar Calathea and Lemon Lime Maranta, so Iâm not brand new to the prayer plant family, but I certainly donât know everything. (Bottom and top view of leaf shown) There are these dots on the underside of one of my leaves that look green (like the top side of the leaf) and Iâm not sure if it is spider mite damage or something else. It doesnât move or come off if I touch it, and thereâs no texture. I think itâs leaf damage of some kind. My Whitestar had this happen too at one point but I just took a look at her and now those spots are gone. Any idea whatâs going on here? I bought this plant at Loweâs a few days ago and removed an actual tiny spider from webbing between leaves on this plant. Iâve never had spider mites before, so I donât really know what Iâm dealing with. Second question, this new growth leaf seems to be developing its purple color as it grows, but everything Iâve read says it should have come in with the purple color. Does this and the new growth emerging to its left look healthy? What should I do with them? PSâ I know my âkitchenâ location shows this plant is getting too much light, but I promise itâs not. I think I need to reassign what cardinal direction my kitchen window faces. All of my plants have done fantastic in this light when the app says the light is âtoo brightâ.
Help! Why are her leaves curling? And she has stopped openeing and closing? She was was really healthy!!! But heavy and kind of a double plant so I slipt it into 2 and I think maybe she hates me now? Is she just in shock or did I do some real damage?
Does anyone know what this means? Got this plant recently and it came like this. It feels a bit crusty. Not sure what to do
Hey does anyone here potentially know what could he causing my red maranta to start having yellowing leaves? Iâve had the same care since June for it, and it has been fine but recently (two weeks ago) it had started to give me yellow leaves Care: Water with distilled water when 25% dry Humidity ranges from 60-80% Gets bright light (in a sunroom with south facing windows) - not close to windows but further away since itâs direct light If anyone has any helpful tips lmk! I did cut off the four yellow / yellowing leaves but I see some more may be starting to yellow- help is appreciated!!!
I moved states/apartments a few months ago and my rattlesnake plant has not been adjusting well to the new location and I wonder if anyone could identify what issue might be causing these spots? The leaves have also stopped closing up during the day. I do get very bright direct light in my apartment for a couple hours every day and Iâve moved her around to try to figure out where it would be best to put her where she will still get indirect light. Does it look like a lighting issue or maybe humidity?
I have a rooted red maranta... I'm in zone 6B, should I wait until spring to plant it? Well, I also have a lime one that I think it's rooted (it doesn't look like the red one for the most part, but maybe it's because of different cutting time? đ€·ââïž
Attempting water propogation with a prayer plant âkerchoveanaâ for the first time, via a stem cutting (cut 1/2â below a node) in water. Any general advise welcome đ±
Help!! I made a post a few weeks ago explaining that my plant had a few leaves turn brown. Somebody suggested that the plant was too dry. Since then, I moved it out of the drafty room into a different one. The browning of the leaves has continued, and it looks like Iâm about to loose an entire stem to the plant.
So I moved my prayer plant âKerchoveanaâ to my small upstairs bathroom which is the most humid place in the entire house, I am talking about more humid than the Amazon rainforest and has a roof window that gives it a bright indirect light shower entire day and I have switched to watering it with the same water as my Venus fly trap âDc-XLâ. Which is using pure life water to water it since my tap water seems to contain some harmful chemicals that hurt it. So is this a good setup to help stop the die backing and let it get bigger.
Prayer plant peeps: how snug do you let your plants get in their pots before you size up? On the one hand, sheâs still pushing new leaves with no signs of slowing down. On the other, sheâs probably doubled in size since I put her in this container a few months back and her roots are getting pretty wild. Theyâre not coiling on top of themselves in the way I would consider âroot-boundâ, but that might be because theyâve extended beyond the pot through holes. Most of my plants are aroids and I usually wait to see either slowed growth or for them to need watering more frequently, but Iâm not sure that translates for calathea/geoppertia
My kerchoveana prayer plant keeps dying back all the long vines it produces every year, how can I get it to keep them and grow big?
Any care tips for a young Calathea Whitestar? Mine was doing great when I first brought her home, but now Iâm having problems. First brought homeâ 5 adult leaves, 3 baby leaves. 2in pot 2 months later (present)â 6 adult leaves, 1 baby leaf. 5in pot Between then and nowâ 2 baby leaves yellowed and I cut them off. Now the last baby leaf (the largest of the 3) is yellowing, and I just had a problem with her leaves curling inward (not folding like they do, but curling). Fixed the curling but now Iâm noticing clear spots on two of the adult leaves. No sign of pests that I know of. Whatâs happening and what do I do?
Happy little update on this Calathea warscewiczii⊠Proud to report 3 new leaves! One nearly completely open as of today. Yay! I knew this little dude would be a bit difficult given its humidity needs and being in CO where our highest humidity is like 30%. But a little humidifier and little gulps of water every few days is seeming to keep this guy pleased. Fingers crossed it stays that way!
Hi! I was watering my plant today and noticed this completely dead leaf :( I water it with room temperature, filtered water, and it has been a very long time since Iâve had a brown leaf like this. It is over 10 feet from the window, and is in the middle of the plant, so I donât believe it is sunburn. I was actually thinking about getting it closer to a window, as the newer leaves are pretty faint in color. Now, Iâm worried!! (The other brown leaves are scorched from being a bit too much light while I was trying to find the perfect spot at my parentâs houseâŠoopsies!)
Iâve never seen whatever this is growing out of one of the stems. Does anyone know what it is?
White fusion people â any thoughts here? When I bought it recently, the whites were vibrant. Lots of new growth since. However, the new leaves have a greenish tint to the white sections. ChatGPT says this is common in white fusions because new growth needs more chlorophyll and itâll whiten over time. Have any of you experienced this?
I know you all would appreciate this: my lemon-lime is blooming đ„čđ„č After rescuing this plant from a hydrophobic, leggy, crusty existence with a previous owner and nearing 10 months of rehabâŠthis lady is loving life. đ„Č
Hello all! Iâm new here and relatively new to indoor plants. I used to have planted, aquascaped aquariums and have always enjoyed outdoor container gardening, thus ârelatively new.â Wanted to share my two calatheas (rattlesnake and warcscewiczii)! Iâm in CO, so humidifiers pepper my office, (eastern facing with a huge window). Iâm finding topping with moss is helping with humidity and preventing drying out too quickly. Iâve got them in tropical houseplant soil (that has tiny amounts of lava rock) heavily amended with horticultural charcoal, perlite, orchid bark mix and leca to ensure good drainage. Hope all are enjoying their day!
