So I just recently had a very severe under watering problem with my bonsai tree… it has gotten so much better on the past 2 days…. But basically all the leaves have fallen off of the tree. What’s going on?

Hi everyone! New plant mom here and I just can’t get this sweet baby back to how he used to look. I’ve tried everything from repotting to fertilizing (advice from another plant mom) and he still looks so sad :( can anyone help??

One of my ficus has had this since I got her about a year ago. It hasn’t sprouted any new leaves and I feel like it’s because this little piece got stuck or never finished growing. Should I cut it off? Is there anything I can do for it? She otherwise very healthy, she’s been repotted (about 4 months ago?), and doesn’t show any signs of root rot.

Hi all! I’m having some issues with gnats from my plants when they get watered? I’ve opted to use watering bulbs and that’s reduced it a lot since the stop soil isn’t moist. But unsure how to completely get rid of it. Would I need to just repot with new soil?

I’ve seen these over the last few weeks in the soil of my Dieffenbachia. I’ve heard mixed responses as to what they may be (friend or foe) and recently I’ve noticed more of them, especially after watering. *they curl up when touched it that helps Any idea what they may be? Any solutions for getting rid of them? Should I isolate this plant as to not infect my others? Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏

hello friends <3 i’m very new to taking care of plants, and i was unaware of how fast my maidenhair fern could deteriorate!!! she was doing so well the first few weeks i had her!!! she was sprouting new fronds like crazy. I misted her leaves twice a day and watered her lightly every other day with cycled deep waters. i forgot to water her for three days, and now her fronds are curling and browning. is this from lack of water or maybe a moisture change? we’ve had the windows open the past two days and there has been a gentle breeze. i checked her roots and there are no signs of rot… so i’m really at a loss. i saw she was declining yesterday and gave her a good soak. she hasn’t seem to have gotten better or worse. any feedback really helps! i wanna keep her alive and thriving ❤️‍🩹❤️

Any suggestions on how to get a jalapeño plant to bear peppers? Weather has been high 70s most of the time and full sunlight, not sure if the right climate is off or if there’s other reasons they might not be growing…

My Kolanchoe hasn’t bloomed in 2 years, but leaves look great. I feed it during warm months. I can’t figure out why not? No bugs on it at all. My anthurium hasn’t bloomed in 2 years too. Same management.

Poor thing… my Butterfly Stonecrop has been infested with mealy bugs. I acted fast and treated him by putting rubbing alcohol on the infected leaves… I may have gotten a drop or two of it in the soil. Did I do the right thing??? 😢 😭

today i am tackling repotting these two..wish me luck. she stopped producing new growth/started growing really slow, so i’m thinking her soil is lacking nutrients, any tips?

i’ve had this plant for a little bit now and i’ve noticed sometimes the leaves just look, translucent/weird? it’s a healthy plant producing tons of new growth with no other issues so i’m confused why it acts like that 🤣 -also wanted to note that i do fertilize the plant regularly and even tried to increase the potency to see if it’d help and it hasn’t

DISEASE ID HELP 🥺 I bought this evening primrose (oenothera fruticosa) at a native plant sale last year. It’s a perennial native to Maryland. Both this year and last year, it seems to have some sort of disease that causes the leaves to turn red and eventually die. Some of the flowers have been deformed as well. Help!

Why are the leaves turning yellow? I’m not sure if this plant needs a lot of light.

🆘!! I bought a gardenia bonsai online and she arrived about a week ago. She initially had a lot of buds, but they start to wilt and soon as they open and look like this (see photo) within a day of opening. She also had a few yellow leaves and I don’t think there are any more now than there were a week ago. I know gardenias are sensitive, so maybe she just needs some time to recover from the shipping and to get used to the new environment? I have her in indirect sunlight in a room that gets a ton of light. But what’s worrying me is that when I tried to use a moisture meter by her roots, I couldn’t even push it in there. The akadama around her is very loose and the water runs off immediately, but I’m concerned nothing’s actually making it to her roots. Under different circumstances, I’d take a look at her roots and repot her if needed. But since she’s so delicate, I’m concerned I’ll just do more damage. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks ahead of time! 🙏🏼
