My plumeria seems quite healthy and happy, but she has been producing yellow leaves that eventually fall off. Does anyone know why this might be happening? I water her on a schedule, clean her any chance I get and I spray for pests often. Any ideas??

Help 😭 How do you get rid of fruit flies/fungus gnats??? I spray neem oil as regularly as I can, put diatomaceous earth on the soil around the plants, and even have a trap that attracts and kills bugs… and they still won’t go away. I’ve noticed them mostly coming from my echeveria plant (a succulent not known for having pests). Any and all help is appreciated!!!

Monestra getting yel

Hi can someone help me what to do, it’s been three weeks I bought the Monestra plant, I kept it indoor and I watered thrice only the lower leaves are getting yellow I removed 5-6 leaves and now two more are getting yellow

Are these little spots normal? It is not something on the plant that I can wipe away… is in the leaf itself.

My Kalis / Kris plant / Alocasia Sanderiana is getting yellow spots and I don't know why!! I just got him last week and his soil was SO wet when I brought him home that I haven't even watered him yet, I've left him in indirect light by a 10 ft wide south facing window to dry him out. When I looked at his roots the ones that reached the outside of the dirt weren't mushy, but I didn't dig out all the way inside.

So, I have a monsterra that is in a low light area and it was doing well and then it wasn’t. I think I have almost lost it…only one leaf left thriving. It has good drainage but the soil stays fairly wet at the base of the pot. I thought it was able to do well in low light…anyone else have this problem?

HELLLPPPOOPP okay, so basically, my pink princess has these tiny dry spots on some of its leaves (has had them since i got her). the spots aren’t in clusters or anything so i assumed that they might just be spots from experiencing stress in shipping? but i was looking at my other plants (a pitcher plant, venus flytrap, and pothos) and they also have single, tiny spots like this on some of their leaves. my pink princess is also pushing out a new leaf right now that seems to have black spots on it. my initial guess was that i gave that stem too much moisture and it led to tiny areas of rot (i was misting this stem because i was worried about the new leaf getting stuck). but now i’m getting paranoid about a fungal infection going around… my plants are in good shape right now—no dying leaves or wilting, just these tiny spots. but i’m still really nervous. should i get fungicide?

For the life of me I can not keep this baby happy! I had her part sun, outdoors, when I first got her and she curled up and dropped all her leaves. I moved her to an even shadier spot, she started to have some growth good growth but was still getting dark spots on her leaves and getting eaten, so I brought her inside (west facing window, part sun. Window has a film so no direct light) where she’s been for a month or two. She was looking like she was recovering good, had a new leaf coming up, then the other two leaves just curled up and died this past week. I have NO idea why I’m so bad with this plant 😭

I realized a lot of my Potted plant soil is garden soil not for potted plants. I have lightened a bunch of it with perlite, pebbles, coco coire but some plants are still not Bally, do I have to completely change kit the soil or perhaps just add more perlite to any dense looking ones?

I’m a very nervous plant parent, so I check my guys for pests all the time. Today I stumbled upon some tiny black bugs on my arrowhead plant, as well as what appeared to be larvae inside one of the new leaves? Please suggest what to do! There does not appear to be any damage from them (sun damage to the plant previously) and I’ve taken off all I can see. If more show up I’ll add photos, but for the meantime, are there any suggestions?

Infested yucca

Infested yucca! Help please 😔 My yucca started dying a couple of months ago, and I noticed many small caterpillars on it and all around my apartment. Indeed there is a caterpillar cementery behind the yucca. Apparently they all go there to die(?) I don’t know what to do bring back to life my baby :(
