My Philodendron White Wizard is browning a bit on the tips. Is this due to too much sun or not enough? It also by a window that opens a lot so it gets a lot of cold air bursts

I saved my old monstera from a snowstorm only to see its leaves chewed through by critters, probably a raccoon or squirrels!😩😭 It will grow new leaves because the roots are intact.

My calathea has been doing really well until its newest growth started to brown. What could be going on??? I am not overwatering but also not letting it dry completely. It has bright filtered light and a pebble try for humidity. 😵💫 (The brown tips on larger leaves were from before I bought it and I haven’t noticed them get any worse)

I have been having a hard time getting plants to survive - much less thrive - in this area in the macrame hanging basket. There are other similar plants (care and light levels needed) on the same bookshelf that do fine. I am wondering if being placed in the hanging basket could be stressing the plants out??? Maybe putting strain on the roots? It sounds crazy to me but I can’t think of anything else. This plant was at the top of the bookshelf until recently. I moved it down when I moved a peace lily from the basket that also wasn’t doing well. And bam - leaves turned yellow real quick. I’ve trimmed two vines already hoping to save pieces of the plant. I put a plate under the plant tonight hoping a little more stability will help. Any other ideas? I really like the idea of filling this space with a big plant…but I also like my plants to stay alive..

There seem to be these boils almost on my peperomia and I can’t tell if they are a disease or just normal for this plant. I’m so curious and I haven’t seen anything like this before. Thanks🤍🪴

Hi everyone! Yesterday I repotted, washed, and treated both my alocasias with an insecticide that mostly contains Sulphur and potassium salts. These are next day photos: I still see little white bugs in leaf crevices, but I suspect the spray doesn't work this fast. I have a few questions: 1) what kind of pest do you think these are? 2) How long do you think it'll take to get rid of them? The label on the spray says to spray thoroughly once every 7 days, I wonder if these babies will have to spend another month in quarantine. Thanks everyone, I really appreciate you:)

Hey guys - I bought this plant 2 months ago and it already had some of these dark spots & it’s getting worse 💔my room is quite cold as I get too hot easily, and not massively sunny (both will change in April as I am moving into a big glassy/bright and warm apartment!) but how can I save it?!

Please help me save this Blushing Philodendron! This plant was inherited by me from my brother and now, after several years of TLC, several of its leaves have slowly turned golden brown and dropped off. I have been monitoring watering and fertilizing but I need more guidance. Thanks fellow plant parents!

Does anyone know what these clear balls are? They look like water droplets but feel like gel. I believe it's on a papaya plant?
Danny
Also. What do I do with it to get it to root if it’s able to
Danny
I would like to know if I will be able to get this to root ? It broke off the main plant and I really would like to save it if possible

I recently purchased an umbrella plant and some of its leaves have this black spot on them. Not sure what this is. Can anyone please help ?

Help! A dying snake plant 😭 I think I overwatered it. Any suggestions on what to do/how to help it?

I dodged a bullet. This beetle rode in on my dog’s fur. My white hair dogs often get mulch and chunky bits tangled in the fur as they play outside. I automatically pull off the debris after 14 years of living with my dogs. This piece fell to the floor and disappeared. Found it on my peel and stick wall paper sample. An internet image search shows it’s a Flea Beetle. It’s one variety that is highly destructive to foliage and lays eggs in the soil and inside the trunk! They usually become active in spring. I suspect the above normal temperatures brought them out. Our temperatures have been 20°F above typical winter temperatures for over a week. It’s averaging 80°F temps here on he Texas coastal areas. I disposed of it by tossing it near a spot where cardinals and sparrows often come to look for food. It’s near a frog resting place. 🐦⬛🐸🪲 Nematodes and Neem oil in a 70% solution can get rid of them per google. Strong scented plants like mint, marigold, calendula and garlic deters them.

I have had a money tree for about a year, and my cats started urinating in the pot and now I am trying to bring it back. Need advice here.

Anybody know what’s happening to my dieffenbachia? Bottom leaves started yellowing, even after watering. I don’t think I’m overwatering as it’s been over a week since I last watered.
Stephanie
Can anyone help with why 2 of me leaves are doing this. Thanks
Marxelo
Hello everyone! I wanted to ask if this is something I should be considered about. I’ve had this money tree for about 4 years. Never had anything like this show up on the leaves and now it’s on a couple of them. I don’t ever overwater my plant and it’s stays out of direct sunlight. Can anyone help identify what this might be?
