Hey guys! This little kiddo was picked up from a local spring, ( it was already uprooted don’t worry! ) she was sitting in a fine rich mud… I moved her to water, she’s okay aside from one tiny leaf, it died. Any ideas of what she is? Thanks!

I can’t tell if my plant has mealybugs or not? I am finding little tiny white specs here and there but I am not sure. They are all very hard and I don’t know if they are mealy bugs because I’ve never had them before. Any help or advice would be great!

Overjoyed that my fiddle produced a leaf!! I know they are hard plants. Should i be worried that it has brown spots? Had this plant for about 6 months and this is my first leaf. Still pretty full all over.

Any time i try to plant a spider plant baby, it does this and all turns brown and dies! I let it grow roots for a couple months before planting. Any idea on why this happens? This is probably my 4th attempt with same result.

We got a ton of rain overnight and my lettuce plant has developed these spots on lower leaves. Should anything be done about this? Will this hurt the plant long term? The leaves look overall a bit wilted right now, but will they bounce back if left to dry completely? Update: the doctor feature says they’re fungus, so would cutting off these portions and giving it a good dousing in neem oil do the trick?

Hi I bought this cactus a couple of weeks ago and recently I found this. I have no idea that they are and how to treat them. Can anyone help me! Thanks

This is by far the hardest plant to take care of for me. She was originally grown from a small prop, became HUGE and happy, then all of a sudden started getting leggy. I clipped and propped and planted, and none took root. I left it alone, some new vines grew so I tried putting it in water. Same thing- long vines so leaves, always dying back. Please please help me figure out how to keep this wandering Jude alive. She’s so gorgeous but we just don’t vibe 😭 I know I’m doing something wrong.

Do you know what could be causing this damage to the stems?

Umbrella tree problem: I’ve been slowly losing petioles from my tree. They’re slowly turning yellow and falling off.I’ve had it for 18 months but a couple weeks ago, petioles have been quickly falling off. It gets great sun and is watered according to a meter. It has had scale for a while and I manually remove it. Scale wouldn’t cause this type of loss particularly if manually removed. I also use systemic since I’ve noticed the scale. Recently I’ve seen these weird circular white patches. I use a bio fungicide since seeing them as well as a topical bio pesticide. I’m not familiar with this since it doesn’t resemble powdery mildew. At this point a good third of my 4’ tall amate has died and I fear whatever it is has taken over. Any thoughts on fixing this or what’s causing it? I fertilize it regularly too.

Help! I have a brown spot outbreak, I have cooper fungicide coming in the mail, but it’s not been delivered yet. I have 10 plants that have been infected with brown spots, I have move them to a room without any plants but with good sunlight. They are 3 spider plants, one pin-stripe calathea, one fiddle leaf fig, one bird’s Anthurium and one rattlesnake plant.

Can someone please help! My grandmother passed away 18 years ago and left me this plant. About a week ago I used fertilizer on my plants including her plant. I believe I poisoned my plants (wrong fertilizer/water mixture) and she (my plant) has been going down hill and this is the last living memory I have of my grandmother. I rinsed her out but I’m sure what else I can do to save her. Please help me!

Now two out of three kalanchoes have aphids and I don’t know how to get rid of them (I’ve been trying to spray the leaves with a hose to hopefully knock them off). I really don’t want them to die because my Mom got them for the mother’s day after my Nana passed. I have a kalanchoe propagating just in case.. (The left photo is before and right is currently)

I got this giant beautiful golden pothos at my local Lowe’s and was super excited. But I noticed when I got home a lot of the petioles have this white fuzz like stuff around them. Had anyone seen anything like this? Should I be worried about a fungus or something? If so what should I do?!

This is my polka dot plant… for some reason he’s super leggy and just keeps getting taller. I’m not sure if it’s the soil or lighting or something else. He seems healthy, he’s just super tall compared to most polka dot plants. Any suggestions?
