Hello all! I recently bought this Thai Constellation from a local plant nursery though she does not seem to be doing so well. She has these brown spots on 3 of her leaves. I just moved her down from my room thinking it was a problem with the lighting. I also reported her because she was root bound. No root rot could be seen. Please let me know of anything I can do to save her!!! TIA

Just bought this baby a few weeks ago, a type of snake plant I hate if anyone know a the name it would be awesome to know. But it started getting these beige squiggly lines like possibly a worm? Not sure but I am thinking of just hacking it up because the leaves on the bottom are nice. Anyone possibly know what this is? Sun stress maybe? Or is it a pest? Before and after photos below

HELP! I got this Mickey Mouse Alocasia a few weeks ago and noticed these tiny black bugs on the leaf this morning. This is VERY magnified. I just want to make sure I treat it right. Thank you!😊

Hello, I need help. I have a 8ft fiddle leaf fig. It was doing so well and out of the blue i started noticing mealybugs. I have treated it with everything i can think of, i have even checked the soil. There are no bugs in the soil, just on the leaves, now all my leaves are falling off and turning brown. How can I save it? I have used captain jack’s insecticidal spray, i’ve used neem oil with fungicides & insecticide, copper spray, rubbing alcohol, peppermint oil / tea tree oil castile soap mix, nothing seems to work. can anyone give me a good recommendation? I would hate to throw the plant out because i put so much work into it.

I noticed this on my dragon scale this morning. I didn’t see it there yesterday. There is a new leaf coming up. Could that be why it’s going yellow?

Any idea why the leaf on my burgundy rubber tree is turning orange? It’s a lower leaf. Otherwise seems healthy.

Please help me! I just spent the last two hours washing tons of pests off of all of my plants. So far I have identified three different kinds, aphids, spider mites and lots of thrips!😬 I have no idea where they are coming from or how to properly get rid of them but I sprayed all my plants with a mix of rubbing alcohol, castile soap and water. I hope that was a good idea.😮‍💨 Please someone help me! The pests are attacking at full force and I need to know if I’m doing the right thing. Im going into 7th grade soon and I really don’t want to have to deal with pests on top of homework!😅 Thanks 🙏 (Photo for attention. Just got a tai con monsera! So excited!🪴😊)

My rubber tree plant is growing mushrooms? Not sure maybe I overwatered? I’m pretty sure I need to carefully remove?

Oh no just found these little white pests crawling on the leaves of my plant (the plant is attached it to this post)!! 😖I don’t know if there’s any webbing or if they seem to be crawling on the little fuzziness that is on the leaves. I don’t think my pictures did the critters justice but does anyone know what they might be?? Might first thought is to wipe neem oil on the leaves. Would that kill pests on leaves?

I’m bad at this but trying to get better. I have two orange trees that I started from a pip, the other one has grown so much better than this one, and now I’ve noticed these spots. This one has lost a few leaves this week (unsure if thats connected) No idea what to do?

I cannot get my schefflera to perk up. It also has this sappy residue on the leaves. Any advice would be 🙏🏻
