Just bought this Jade and Pearl Pothos from HEB… Anyone know what kind of bug this is/how to get rid of it?
Whoever handled this poor plant did not care for it very well, and I don’t want to just toss it out. If anything I am tempted to propagate off the healthier leaves and toss the rest of the plant from the damage atp

Anything I should do to this growth on my watermelon leaves? It is spreading some but the new plant growth is out pacing it. Dry back? Whey or microrizalfungi foliar spray?

My peace lily flowers are turning brown on the edges. Is it because of too much or too little sunlight or watering? Any suggestions on this?

Please help! My plants leaves are curling and I don’t know what to do.

I kept my little succulents in my bedroom for about 6 months and then I foolishly put them outside without preparing them and they got sunburnt 😭 I ended up pulling off all the brown leaves but left the ones that discolored.
Now they have been outside, in the heat but under shade for a couple weeks. And I’ve been watering them according to the Planta instructions.
One of them has a little green color to it still. Can I put them in the sun yet? Are they even salvageable??
Thank you!

Hello,
There is something like a fungus growing on my jade plant exactly where the leaves grow. Can someone please help me fix this?

I noticed my Lady Valentine wasn’t doing as well as I hoped. The bottom leaves were fading. I dug through the soil to find two smaller pots within the self watering pot. Never repotted since purchasing a few months ago. Roots look really healthy though!

I have a money tree that seems to be growing pretty happily but has lost quite a few leaves in the middle. You can see the bare areas about a foot from where the braiding ends. Any advice to get fuller growth toward the bottom?
I tried trimming it in the spring but it didn’t help as new growth just restarted from where I trimmed.

Underwatered? Overwatered? I watered every week and a half to two weeks. I followed planta instructions and I don’t get it

Overwatered? Underwater? How can I tell? I let it rest for a week and it still looks like this. I watered once every week to two weeks

Off on vacation and left my sister to care for my plants and she sends me these pictures.
Severely concerned ❤️

what are these spots on my monstera? i just repotted it almost a week ago. the roots were dense and circling, so i had to disturb the root system to be able to separate my 3 monsteras and place them in a way where they would be able to utilize the moss pole. it took me about an hour to untangle the roots while submerging them in water. there are no visible pests, and i just fertilized about 2 weeks ago. humidity is at a steady 60-66. i’m certainly not overwatering as i’m letting it dry out a little in between waterings.

Grandma took care of my plants while I was away and I noticed this on it, what should I do?
Should I just toss the plant out?
What about my other plants?

I have really neglected this orchid, now I’m trying to bring it back. Do you think it’s salvageable? I believe it’s growing mold, I sprayed it with hydrogen peroxide, any other tips? Thanks

I am not sure what to do. I noticed a few leaves randomly in the middle of this pathos vine are turning yellow yellow. They weren’t in direct light. It seems to be working very slowly up the vine & I don’t want to lose the whole vine it is very long at this point.

Can anyone tell me what’s going on with my plant? I had several black leaves that I had to pull off. I think I wanted too long to water her.

My mother has a large beautiful monstera and recently transferred it to a 12” pot from an 8” pot yet it’s thriving. She has a self watering pot and it’s growing really quickly.
She recently added a moss pole when she transferred pots but she never mists it and I’m not seeing any aerial roots attached to the moss pole. She’s tied the main stems/offshoots to the moss pole but it’s causing the leaves to all bunch together at the top.
Can anyone help with a better solution for how to give this plant structure, while also allowing its leaves to move towards the light or allowing its growth to not be restricted? I’m not an expert on the subject and told her I’d try to find a solution. Thanks.

Leaves are curling, cut a few off. Any ideas? It looked great the first few months I had it. I was told it needed indirect light but I am really not sure what exactly that means. Also what exactly does root rot look like? Can you tell I am new to having houseplants😬
