Came with a bouquet of flowers, started growing roots so potted it, re-potted it, opened up, now it looks like this 😭 no clue what kind of plant, can I use some of the leaves to propagate? What kind of plant?

I believe my moon cactus is healthy but I know near nothing about plants. How's it looking?

Anyone know what’s up with my Chinese money plant? This is the only leaf that really looks this way, but I wanna make sure that it isn’t gonna spread to the rest of the plant. I just moved so my plants have been through a lot of transition recently. I’m a rather new plant parent so anything helps!

Any idea of what may be causing the brown spots? Purchased 7/20, watered twice since, near an east-facing window, potted in a mix of orchid bark and regular soil..

Update on my poor jade plant...😭 She lost more and more leaves every day. I reported her about a week ago and it didn't help. I thankfully got a leaf off before it died to propagate it so she will hopefully life on. RIP sweet girl 🕊️

Mealy bug experts, please help! 🚨 Today I went through my first attempt at removing mealy bugs from my philodendron, all was going well until I rinsed the mixture of rubbing alcohol, water and washing up liquid from the plant. It’s always grown upwards, however it’s now slumped to the side and the main stem seems floppy and unsupported 🥺 Has anyone experienced this before? Is there anything I can do to get it supported again? Did I get something wrong in the process of removing the mealy bugs? Thank you in advance! 🫶🏻

Any ideas of how I can get the tips of my ravenea rivularis to stop dying? I brought this plant from Lowe’s and it was already kind of dying, but it looked too cute not to add to my collections!

If anybody has care advice on alocasias and colocasia’s , I would appreciate anything! My issue is this- every time a new leaf starts to come through, another older leaf drops . I know this is typical with them , but I believe it can be avoided if they’re just a bit happier . I have a handful of these plants but these are a few for reference . I have them in a chunky mix with the Fox Farm ocean floor soil, perlite, and orchid bark. They sit in clear plastic pots with drainage and trays . I’m careful about watering and usually follow the app but if they’re excessively dry I give them a light watering . I checked their roots recently when repotting them and all seemed healthy . No signs of pests either . Is there something I’m missing?

Reviving very dehydrated airplants - I watered all my new-ish airplants the day before leaving for a 9 day trip to see family, and came back to find them all deeply dehydrated — it seems the house sitter didn’t turn on the humidifier they are next to at any point while I was away 🙃 Is it too late for these beebees? Should I soak them longer than I usually would or again more frequently or just mix the goners in with the compost pile?

For my orange tree, I’ve noticed the leaves have started to have black spots and it is spreading. Not all of the leaves as shown in pictures. Does anyone know what this is?

Noticed these spots on my plant. I repotted it a few days ago. I noticed spider mites and repotted it. It was fine 5 days ago before I repotted with these spots. Any idea what they are or what caused it ? It is in a more sunny spot since I moved to keep it separate from other plants.
