Hi all my lovely birdâs paradise is infested with mealy bugs. I got rid of them a few with ago with 70% rubbing alcohol on the mature bugs then washed down my plant in the shower. Theyâre back though! How can I get rid of them for good? I just washed down the plant again and sprayed it with neem oil. Any feedback helps đđ

Help! My poor baby⊠she is a red vain and quite the drama queen, recently she has been repotted. this morning she was super floppy and limp. The room was very warm ( it was snowing outside ) and I wondered if she had been too hot, so I misted her and turned the fan on. After that I bottom watered her and it didnât help at all⊠any ideas? Thanks in advance!đ ( edit I noticed she had a small fungal spot )

My lemon tree is showing pale spots where she looks like the green part of the leaves are missing. The plant is about 2 years old and has been inside and in a south-facing window. Pot has drainage and I added citrus-specific fertilizer spikes a few months ago. Sheâs had fungus gnats before and responded well to treatment (hydrogen peroxide solution). But those didnât do this kind of damage to the leaves. One branch seems to be more affected than the others. Please help!

I left my rosemary outside yesterday and today because I wasnât home and the weather has been in the low 20s (Fahrenheit) I just got it from the grocery store and havenât repotted it yet đ„ I found it on the floor today and it was somewhat frozen can someone tell me how do I save it?
My plants
I keep on getting random leaves turn yellow here and there not to to often. But I donât think itâs good! Iâve been watering it when it tells me. I do have a lot of flys are they bad for my plant? Could that be the problem?
(Also my plant gets direct sunlight for about an hour or so then the rest is just sunlight in the room directed in other places.)

My prayer plant when I got it vs today.. is the leaf curl normal? I set it up closer to my humidifier, which I hope helps
(Also, I didnât realize my bunny was in the picture lol)
Edit: I did walk from the store to the car when it was very very cold out with wind, which could be causing it as the other plants I bought are also drooping a bit, Iâm just more concerned about this one as Iâve never had any of these before

I was recently given this pothos, and I repotted it because it was in a pot with zero drainage. There arenât really any roots at all so Iâm guessing itâs just a bunch of new cuttings. Can anyone tell me why these new growths are crisping up and dying before theyâve even really sprouted?

Hi! Iâm new to raising plant babies and would like a little advice. This is my monstera. A friend of mine propagated it for me so I am trying my best to keep it alive. I have 2 stems with no leaves and I was told to cut it at the base and possibly a new shoot will grow..is that the only way to get new leaves? I would like more stems to grow but Iâm not sure how. Any advice? Thank you!
Edit: this picture was taken at night- it is next to a big window so thereâs plenty of light!

My bonsai tree is very brittle, is that probably a light issue or watering issue?

Hi! Iâve been planting for a while but I still consider myself as a beginner since Iâm not too sure about proper materials and plant care. I just repotted my string of pearls into a new container with drainage after watering three days ago. In the instructions from this app, I was told to rewater the soil. Should I refrain from watering for three more days from the next watering or should I water when this app tells me to?

Hi, friends!
The leaves on my snake plant have started to curl and spread. What does this usually indicate?
It gets indirect light and is watered well. What should I try to change?

Hey guys!! My pothos has completely flopped over and the leaves have lost their waxy appearance :( I thought maybe this could be due to under watering, so Iâve just watered it. Help?!

Both of my Inch Plants are wilting away. I love these and they were so pretty. I canât figure out what my issue is. One is in a terracotta pot with drainage and the other is in a plastic pot without drainage. Any suggestions are appreciated!

My mother has a snake plant starter that sheâs been working on. Neither she or I are plant experts so Iâm not sure if this is normal or if I should be worried. Are these white spots mealy bugs? Any help is appreciated!

Iâm seeing this brown spots slowly appearing on my Ficus Tineka. I water her every 2 weeks and she has grown during the winter period so I donât think thatâs the issue. Should I chop it?
