My Leafy Life
If anyone has a Crassula "Estagnol" (aka "Spiralis"), is it normal for so many dead leaves to be on the stems? I know they're the older leaves and I expect them to die off but it looks, in my opinion, awful. Do I leave them or take them off?
I've also been waiting for them to get long and start to grow over the sides. Does it do that?

I’m wondering if anyone can help me with what’s going on with my pearls and jade Pothos? It’s still growing long and healthy vines/leaves but closer to the base, the leaves are turning yellow and brown and dying. I don’t see any obvious pests and I let the soil dry before watering. The last photo shows how many leaves I have lost on one vine. Any suggestions/thoughts would be great!

My Butia Capitata has a pesky white scale problem and I think the seller sold it to me with that smh 😐 how do I get rid of them successfully at this point? I have treated the plant at least 5 times with pressurized water and a soapy alcohol insecticidal soap spray, but I keep finding several more every day.

My ferns are “ok” but I know they could be better. They get watered fairly regularly because they are by the sprinklers but I am wondering if it’s too hot or there’s too much sun?

Is it normal for a kalancho for its flowers to dry up and fall off but the leaves to keep growing? I’m not sure if I just stressed it out and now it’s recovering or if this is par for the course.

I recently (a few weeks ago) moved my Chinese evergreen to try and get the stems to straighten. It doesn’t seem to like it. There are a couple leaves turning yellow. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Heeeeeellp!
My finicky fiddle leaf fig had been doing so well. But I noticed the soil was staying wet for WEEKS. Which I know is way too long. I left it alone, watered very scarcely, hoping it would be ok until repotting time. I checked the roots and they looked fine. The leaves started to droop and I even lost one. So I decided to go ahead and repot with a better, more well draining soil. Now the leaves started turning brown and the plant looks so droopy. I can’t tell if this is transplant shock, or something else.
Otherwise nothing else has changed. I haven’t watered since the repot about a week ago. The soil is moist but drying much better now. Photos included of how it looked when it was healthy vs now 😭

Hey guys!
Got this ghost plant succulent about two weeks ago. It was rained on for a bit, but nothing concerning.
I watered it two days ago and I notice that one leaf is looking withered. I see another leaf is slowly withering too.
Anyone know a thing or two about this?

Hi all
Posting from London, UK. My Ficus Audrey needs some help.
As you can see from the pics it went from lovely and healthy in March 2025 to top heavy today. How do I get it bushy again?
It’s in my bedroom which is North West facing, first on my chest of drawers away from the window so shady/indirect light. I decided to move it to the window after it lost loads of leaves so it gets more light.
I tried cutting deep notches in the trunk and covering with root hormone powder but that didn’t work. I do fertilise it based on Planta’s recommendations but it’s been stuck at its current state for months.
Any ideas?

What could be causing pothos leaves to turn yellow and the brown spots? Thanks

What do we think chat? Is she dead?
I noticed her decline after watering her so I changed out the soil in the hopes of preventing her demise, but I fear that she was too far gone. Thoughts?

My birds of paradise sadly has another bug infestation. Sadly this time, mealybugs. I’ve thought my leaves were just a bit dusty for weeks but when I’ve had a proper look today, there the little suckers were. How do I even begin to treat this? I’ve consulted ChatGPT but I’m still new to owning plants and want to get it right as I’ve got two new shoots/leaves emerging and don’t want to damage them.

Hey guys! My neon adansonii got repotted a yesterday. (I had so much trouble repotting this thing it isn’t even funny). And it now is going through a good amount of transplant shock. Does anyone know what I can do to help her bounce back? These are now and then. I watered it this morning, because I didn’t yesterday, and the soil was pretty dry. Any thoughts?

I have been trying to save this plant for forever. I repotted it to a nursery pot and now this happened. Rough. Will probably just throw it away. The top photo is today.
