This rubber tree was in a darker spot in our office. She didnât get as much light. I noticed today that her bottom leaves were dropping and/or drooping. I moved her here to get more sun. Iâm new to this so - IS she drooping or am I just worried? Any suggestions to help me get her back to thriving if she is drooping?
She has had two new leaves in the past two months and every stalk has a new leaf forming at the top. Maybe Iâm just paranoid. I got her for $20 at a flea market and donât want to lose her!

Hi!! So Iâve never sprayed my plants with anything for likeâŠprotection? I order plants from a small business and they always talk about the spraying they do with all natural stuff (leaves residue on the plants but âdonât worry it just washes off and does no harmâ) ! I was wondering what I could spray my hoard with to just be extra safe and prevent and deter any fungus or pests from making home in them!! Ive got quite a collection and Iâd hate for any of them to get sick!! Just looking for a routine ALL NATURAL spray đ„° thank you in advance!!

Very sadly neglected Norfolk Island Pine. It was in a too dark of a corner and too close to a heater and an air purifier. Anything I can do at this point?

What is wrong with my monstera? Three of the leaves have these brown spots. The new leaf has chunks missing and some brown on it. Should I repot it? I just got it one or two weeks ago.

I think my baby tails has died :( heâs an ivy in my south facing window- heâs just so unhappy and has been since I brought him home- he doesnât have drainage, is that the problem? Some of his leaves have simply fallen off. Is it too late to save my lil guy? Please help đđ„Č

I just got this fiddle leaf fig over the weekend and there were no spots. I had to drive two hours home, and the plant was left in the car for a couple hours after I got back because of work. The next day, I saw that a few leaves are turning brown. Do these spots look like they are because of the heat of the car? And will they come back, or should I cut the brown-ish leaves off to save energy?

I saved a Monstera Adansonii from Walmart that was being completed neglected. It was three separate cuttings which I repotted into three different pots. I noticed this particularly one was growing a new leaf which got stuck in the petiole it was forming from. After several days of it being in that position I took it out of the petiole and unfurled it and found that half the leaf was completely brown and dried out. After removing it I was left with a big chunk of leaf missing lol.
Does anyone know what could have caused this? Neglect from the store, repotting during growth, getting stuck in the petiole?
Would love to know in case I go through this again in the future

My Aloe Vera is starting to brown/yellow. I assumed it was because i watered it with tap water, and we have a lot of lime in the water where i live - i am now watering all plants with rain water from a butt.
I have also done a diagnosis on the app and it has come up with âwatering imbalanceâ. I am due to water in a couple of days, but the soil is dry.
Any tips? Is this correct? Should i trim the leaves?

Hi there. How can I see what plants are sick and in care and their routine? Or after time do they just stop with the care routine?

I believe my monstera deliciosa has a fungal infection from being overwatered. I am cutting down on my watering and reducing it to every other week, but was just wondering if I should cut these parts off or just leave them?

This is George. Heâs a Hosta that was recently freed from a milk jug (thatâs how he was sold) which is naturally quite lacking in drainage holes, so I repotted him two days ago. Since releasing him from milk jug jail, heâs gone from looking perfectly fine to absolutely turning on me. I want to check the roots for any rot but Iâm scared of touching him too much again considering Iâve repotted and moved him twice already. Any help would be greatly appreciated! (Iâm very new to hostas too, so any advice on them in general would be a big help)
(For reference, the first photo is George now, and the second is George from last week when he was in the milk jug.)

Those who have owned Senecios specifically Angel Wings successfully, can you tell me what iâm doing wrong???
I put him outside in a part sun area when I got him and he did great for 3-4 days then started wilting. One of the leaves is now drying out and plants told me he was under watered. I have watered and watered and he is not getting any perkier!! I was thinking maybe i just need to repot him with richer soil? Any advice is so much help!!
(I did bring him inside because it has been super windy & pouring rain)

Any idea whatâs happening to my dwarf banana plant? Planta diagnosis says itâs due to over watering but I only water it once a week. Any help will be greatly appreciated! đ
