Hello, does anyone know if this plant is dead? I haven’t watered it in a long time so I am not sure. Thanks

Does anyone know why my bamboo plant keeps yellowing? I give it plenty over water but I don’t think I overwater it.

I’ve had this snake plant for over a year, but recently it’s had some issues. I pulled out a dried-out part of the plant and repotted the rest, but now one of the leaves is yellowed and mushy. What’s going on?

Has anyone used Bonide’s Systemic Houseplant Control? It says it’s effective for treating scale among other things. The active ingredient is imidacloprid. This product sounds dangerous and I’d rather not use it, but I am at my wits end trying to treat this scale problem on my big ficus. Help! TIA. 😊💚🪴

I couldn’t get a picture of the little suckers, but it seems I have a few fungus gnats back. How do I make MOSQUITO TEA from mosquito dunks? Does that take care of the little buggers permanently? TIA. 😊💚🪴

I’ve had this monstera deliciosa propagating since 4/11 and it’s been doing great, except this leaf started turning yellow within the last couple days. Anyone know what’s going on? Thank you! :)

Hello! I need some help with my baby dracaena, I literally just slid it out of its pot, and it only had one tiny root that broke off immediately when I tried to see how stable it was, I put it in water to grow more roots, is that the best thing to do? Ps my other one I tried to pull it out but it wouldn’t come out so I’m gonna just leave that one alone. (It’s the one in the dirt. My hand for size reference) Pps I saw some white stringy-ish film on the bottom today, is that normal? And its kinda wobbly in two spots and browning at the bottom. Basically, is there any hope in saving this plant? ANY HELP WANTED AND ACCEPTED!! posting again because I still need some help; the first time I got one like and one comment lol

I have this bromeliad that I received about two months ago and I figured its poor condition would improve after some care, but it’s still not looking great. Anyone know what I can do to improve it?

Hey anyone have some tips on how I should be storing my soil? I live in much colder climate with less direct sun now so the humidity is higher than I’m used to and I think that probably how I ended up with these fun guys (ba-dumst 🥁)

Bought this Chinese Evergreen from the clearance section, I was wondering whether the browning is due to sun burn?

My syngonium is also really droopy and discolored. I can’t tell what it needs.

My ivy has some flies :( Any recommendations on how to get rid of them? I set a fly trap near it and placed it outside.

Hey, the middle of my air plant has had a dark brown residue in the centre since I brought it and it hasn't affected it but now the new leaves in the centre are turning brown, what's wrong with it? Here another photo of my other air plant with similar brown residue.
