My Frost Peperomia keeps dropping leaves like crazy and i dont know why. Its growing really great, but every time i check on him, theres leaves in the soil. Is this par for the course, or am i doing something wrong?
Hi everyone, I’m not sure what’s wrong with the polyscias Fabian. 😭 I bought it from IKEA 3 weeks ago, placed it near south facing window with no direct sunlight , don’t think I’ve overwatered it.
hi! before christmas i left my Dieffenbachia seguine looking relatively happy but when i returned, all of her leaves dropped and then hasn’t improved over the past month. i got this plant on my first date with my partner so it’s very special to me and i can’t bring myself to even think about her being gone forever! is there any thing i can do? should i wait to see if it revives itself as it’s stems are still green? i’ve had her die and revive herself over and over again so i thought she was just having yet another tantrum! please help!
Any idea why my baby rubber plant is starting to yellow at the bottom leaves? She’s been a super easy plant and doesn’t seem temperamental. I have her under a grow light, water when dry, roots look good and doesn’t need a repot. Is it normal to lose the bottom leaves at once?
I just bought this corn plant from Costco a few days ago. Some of the leaves had some dark edges (not crispy though) and also some dark spots edged in yellow. I thought maybe it was due to transporting from the nursery and in my car, but now I’m worried it could be a fungus. I used planta diagnose app and said it was just maybe overwatering (I have not watered yet). Can anyone tell me if I have a fungus problem? If it is fungus I want to return or try to cut off the affected leaves right away.
ROOT ROT! The poor bugger (forked leaf sundew) needed all necrotic roots trimmed. I removed the flower stalk. I gently scrubbed the muck off with a soft toothbrush and did a quick clean (about a minute) with hypochlorous acid. Rinsed with distilled water. Left to air dry for 30 minutes. Placing on top of new sphagnum. Hopefully will see new growth from the still firm root ryzome. 😢 Mostly just looking for emotional support. I don't think there is much else I can do now.
I named this bird of paradise after my bird so its name is buttercup hope. But it’s been looking more and more sad. Really hoping to help making it better. Does anyone know why it’s leave has all these black spots? Thanks a lot
The azalea I just got seems much more droopy and have some yellow spots on the flower. Is it unhappy or dying? Any help would be really appreciated. It’s my first time taking care of Azalea
What could be causing this on some of my pothos leaves?
What is this and how do I get rid of it? I’ve been looking at common house plant pest guides and I haven’t found anything that matches. They kinda freak me out I’m not going to lie. This is a plant at my work and is completely isolated.
Hey there, can anyone help me diagnose / treat my bostern fern plant please? Planta at first said it was underwatered now it thinks it’s been overwatered. I’d appreciate any tips :)
This might be an incredibly dumb question, but why don’t people use regular insect spray on their plants? Is there a problem using it on indoor potted plants? I’m new to plant parenthood, so this is a dumb (but genuine) question 😆
Here’s Elmer! He’s a little mad at me for overwatering him at first. Water schedule is better now, but he did leaf drop about half his canopy. How long do you think it will be till the tiny buds I see mature to leafs and restore his canopy?
I just got this snake plant a 2 weeks ago and the edges were all green, and hearing that they don’t need much water. However, every week I pick up the pot feels very light. I’ve top watered the first time and bottom watered the second time. I checked the roots and there seems to be growth and it’s not mushy, but is this showing signs of thirst or too much water. I picked this one up from Lowe’s and it was drenched in water. Been giving it enough sun and room temp is around 70-72.
I have had mealybugs on my monstera Swiss chess for a few months. I sprayed it with diluted alcohol and repotted it with new soil. It still have them. What else can I do?? Please help
