My black velvet alochasia has 3 leaves with a new one coming out. 2 older leaves turned down but are still firm not frail or easy to bend. Both have these spots on them. Not getting bigger but darkening like the area is dead… thoughts? Should I cut leaves off? I just repotted 2 days ago in a pon mix to make semi hydro. Roots looked good

Hello plant people: Expert advice needed. I have had a Ficus Benjamina for about 5 years, potted up this past summer from a 10 inch terracotta pot to a 12 inch ceramic pot. Watering is different in the ceramic pot but it is shooting out new growth as if it really really likes its new home. But I noticed these spots. Can anyone tell me what this is? I absolutely adore this tree. Please help. Thank you 💚😊

Recently saved this guy from complete root loss so I knew that the leaves would slowly die off. I’m worried about these leaves on the stem though. I would cut them off, but I don’t want the stem to die.

Does anyone know what happened to my Alocasia Melo? Is this a bacteria/fungus infection? 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

So I got this diffenbachia a few weeks ago and it was doing great when I got it. I had it in a low/moderate light room but it seemed to be struggling with a lot of leaves turning yellow and dying so I moved it to a room with my other plants with plant lights. Leaves still keep dying and wilting up and turning yellow. The soil isn’t overwatered and there is drainage if needed. I checked the roots and broke them up because I’ve had plants die from roots balling up. Is there any bringing this plant back or anything anyone recommends?? Any feedback welcome and appreciated.

So I have three plants in my kitchen (silver pothos, heart leaf philodendron, and a tradescantia). They all sit on top of my cabinets which are directly above the stove. My issue is that they’re very sticky?! It’s not pests; they’ve been this way for a year+. I’ve tried cleaning the leaves with a wet cloth, putting the plants in the shower, and using dawn dish soap on the leaves. Nothing gets the stickiness off. It’s not the whole plant, either, just the top parts near the pot. Is it cooking oil in the air that’s making them sticky? Has anyone else experienced this?

I noticed that one of my leaves turned yellow within just two days. Could anyone please advise what might have happened and what I should do? The plant is currently in my bathroom, next to a frosted window. I placed it there because I read that it prefers higher humidity and bright, indirect light. Any insights would be really appreciated!

Guys, my avacado plant's leaves are drying up and brown spots are appearing, it also has a greenfly on it. What can I do?

Hi everyone! I’d appreciate some help with my struggling pothos plants. I recently put them in soil after propagating in water and have noticed the new leaves/off shoots are going black or seem to be skinny and unhealthy 🥲 Why might this be? And is there anything I can do? Or does damage to the new shoot mean that propagation cant grow new leaves now?

Happy thanksgiving everyone! I believe this plant has mealybugs, I have no idea what this plant is, I got it completely unnamed. If you have any ideas please help!

My Tineke has been thriving. But I just noticed all of these brown spots on the leaves this morning. I recently repotted about 2 weeks ago. Only thing I can think of is now that the sun is lower in the sky, I get more direct light in my living room. Are those spots from getting to much sun? I moved things around to see if that helps...

Happy thanksgiving for all americans and happy random thursday for everyone else! I’m posting two plants from a friend of mine, he is having issues with pests in his first pothos (we think it’s a caterpillar, any ideas on what it is and what to do?) and for the second, the pothos is browning (i told him it was because of over/under watering, but if anyone else has any ideas let me know!) there both obviously indoor plants, and on top of shelves in his kitchen. if anyone has any ideas, let me know! have a wonderful day!

I purchased this monstera from a supermarket in the uk and initially when I got it the plant was thriving two new leaves grew in around 2 weeks then its growth stopped and it started to develop black spots with yellow around them from all the information I had about monsteras I assumed it was overwatering so I started to make sure the plant drained thoroughly before putting it in its pot and also made sure it dried out completely before watering but even with this it’s still was developing black spots at an alarming rate so I checked the routes and I noticed the plant needs repotting and so I reported it this week but I’m unsure whether it’s actually the watering cause I potted it into a better draining and less compact soil to hopefully negate this but I’ve be reading up about fungus and other problems so I want to post this for anyone with more experience in growing monstera Plants to give me advice

My mom sent me these photos of her Hens and Chicks plant and asked me what was wrong with it. Any ideas? I wonder if it could be a change in the weather? The had it outside originally, but just brought it inside. Thanks in advance!

My moss ball has tons of white spines now. I under-watered for awhile by accident. But ive been watering per schedule now and this seems to be the result?

Help! My baby rubber has been loosing her leaves over the past month. I repotted right when I noticed, and the roots didn’t look that great. Been watering every 10 days probably, only when soil is wet. Now one leaf has started to turn brown at the tip. Idk what to do!
