Iâm new to Monstera Perus and recently bought this one that was kept in a greenhouse. Some of the leaves are yellowing and some have almost a copper look. Can anyone tell me whatâs wrong with it and what to do? I was worried it could be o we watering or fertilizer burn. Thanks

So my fiddle leaf fig has been like this for about 4-5 monthsâŠjust a stick in a pot of soil. Its leaves were slowly falling off but I didnât know why and I wasnât moving it. They kept falling until it became like this. Then just stopped doing anything. It hasnât been growing any leaves, growing more little stalk things, not growing towards the light and just not responding to any stimuli/being watered. I bet itâs probably not even growing any roots. Does anyone know why this is happening? It might be because itâs under an AC but Iâm not sure.

Mold spots on staghorn fern
Maybe overwatered? Water weekly, only the moss gets wet!
Any ideas on how to fix?

Help! I found gnats (probably fungus gnats) in my new pothos plant and I found one flying around my bonsai!

Does anyone know what could be causing these tears and holes on my elephant ear? A few weeks ago it was super windy and she fell over and a few stems broke but sheâs been having a lot of new growth but then this started happening

Hello! New to Planta here but I need some help! My beloved aloe Vera, which was my first plant baby has not been loving life this year. At first the bottom leaves looked like they were rotting away so I chopped those off and changed the soil to a more succulent type of soil. Then the leaves started drooping more, which I thought was just due to weight, however I just noticed these tiny black dots on some of the leaves. Is this pests or disease and how do I go about saving it?

i recently discovered thrips on my monsters and found a single adult on my ginseng. are these the beginning signs of more thrips emerging? iâve already rinsed all my plants, inspected, and found zero thrips. waiting for the next batch to hatch on my monstera and all the plants are separated. no babies were found on the ginseng, just an adult.
if itâs not thrips, what is it and should i be concerned. iâm considering just snipping all those leaves off in case thereâs eggs embedded in the leaves.

Help! I got a new bear paw plant from Loweâs a couple of weeks ago and it seemed to be doing alright. Then I came home from being gone over the weekend and it dropped all of its leaves. There are some before and after pictures

Hi all! I could use some help with my peace lily. I went out of town for a couple days and when I came back, he looked like this. I watered him from the bottom and misted him a little, but he didnât perk up at all. Help please!

Part 1: Iâve not had this orchid very long and I just wanted to see if the purple on this new leaf is normal? Iâve heard of some plants turning a reddish colour under stress but I donât really know.
Part 2: Iâve not changed the pot since I got it in summer and I know itâs not got many roots showing so would it be a good idea to remove some of the potting mix to allow them some more air? I know the root in the photo isnât looking the best.

So good news is I germinated a sunflower seed using the plastic baggie and wet napkin method. Bad news: It grew way faster than I thought it would, and now the top is twisted
Will he be okay? Will this fix itself? Should I do something, or leave it be? Iâve never dealt with this before and I donât want to break him by being too rough

Hello, I posted this plant earlier wondering what it was. Itâs starting to recover a bit already and Iâve noticed this discolouration on the leaves. Does anyone know what causes this and whether itâs permanent? Itâs a philodendron but Iâm not sure specifically what kind. Thank you!
