so I’ve had this maranta since september 2021 and she looks like she’s thriving at the moment. My problem is that she’s so top heavy and has just one thin stem so nearly the entire plant is falling over the edge of the pot. It also looks like she’s getting a lot of new growth or something in here? what’s my best course of action?

Any advice for my calathea? Shes got some brown/yellow tips, and is starting to get a bit droopy. I’ve only had her for a couple of weeks now and wasn’t in the best condition when I originally got her

Took over this plant. Added a humidifier, sitting 7 feet from window indirect light, and been measuring soil moisture levels and watering every 2 weeks or so based on the soil moisture level. Is this plant too far gone?

Over water? :(

What soil would you recommend for this baby (lemon lime)?
Also, its newest leaves seem to be a lighter colour than the others, is this normal?

Does anyone have experience growing a Calathea in water? I tried to rescue this one from Walmart and she just isn’t happy. I have some maranta growing really well in water so I’m considering trying that but I’m a little nervous.

Hi everyone! I’ve been battling some leaf spot disease on my lady here 😭 I’ve treated it with neem oil several times and removed leaves that had more than a few spots. Anything else I should do? I also noticed many of my leaves have a particularly dark growth joint from the base of the leaf at the stem — I can’t remember if they’re normally like that or if it would be a product of the fungus. Can anyone advise? Thanks so much! She’s one of my favorites and I want to see her back in good health!

The greenish white tint around the edges of the leaves has completely disappeared all in just a couple of days. I am completely mystified, but very happy that it now looks normal.

Winter blooms on my 🍋🟢 Maranta. Happy plant is happy. Does anyone know if I cut all the flowers off if it will redirect energy to pushing out new leaves? The flowers are cool and all I’d rather have more foliage 🤣

This plant has had yellowing leaves with some brown spots on the edges but now having trimmed the bad leaves off and with new green leaves coming it looks much healthier. However, I just noticed that the green leaves are tipped with white on the very edges which is brand new. Since this is a new plant to me, I have no idea what’s wrong with it. Any help?

Hi all :) just wanted to share my lemon lime with a group who would appreciate! Haven’t had her very long but she’s thriving and popping out new leaves quite a bit!

Hi y’all! New(ish) plant mom here and looking for advice. These two are t looking too hot lately and looking for recs on sprucing them up a bit. They were both repotted a few weeks ago and I’ve been watering/spraying them based on this app with distilled water. Thoughts?
Of note, Rattlesnake was last watered 10 days ago, next due in 22 days. Last misted 3 days ago, next due in 2 days
Striped Calathea last watered 11 days ago, next due in 21 days. Last misted 3 days ago, next due in 2 days.
