What is this whitish spot on my nerve plant? Is it mold or from too much sun? It looks like it's only on this bottom leaf.

My fiddle leaf fig used to have big green leaves but in the past couple weeks they’ve all turned brown and fallen off. We just moved to a new house but put her in a similar spot by the window like she was at my old house. She hasn’t grown new leaves in over a year though. Anyone know how I can get her big beautiful leaves back?

Anyone know why this calethea vittata’s leaves are curling? I water when top two inches of soil are dry.

We got this bird of paradise for free from someone who was getting rid of it. For a while it was losing all its leaves and the remaining leaves were curled, but we repotted it and took care of the root rot and now the remaining leaves are looking much happier. At the base are all the dried stem remains- should we keep those or take them off? I can’t find any birds of paradise online that look like this!

I feel I rescued this from a garden centre but it was initially strong and green. Why is this leaf now turning brown and limp? it's been watered exactly to Plantas schedule. I've noticed a second leaf also going limp and brown further down since taking photos to share on here... the leaves aren't crispy, but soft? Since looking at it's 'care schedule' on here, I'm wondering if it's not getting enough light? Would that do it? Note, I'm in the UK and it's not very bright outside here during the day now and also gets dark about 4pm. Thanks for any advice 🙌🏼🙏🏼🤩 (for now, I've moved it to the lounge patio window, assuming lighting to be it's issue until I hear replies from you guys 👍🏼💪🏼)

I have a Striped Dracaena Warneckei that has been doing well. In the last three weeks the leaves at the bottom are drying up and I can just pull them out. Is this normal? There is new growth at the top.

Bromeliad is looking kinda “dull” I water when soil is becoming dry, as well as keep the leaves holding water. Could the dark spots on the leaves mean I have it too close to the window? I feel like it is deteriorating.. or is this normal growth patterns? Any advice, suggestions, opinions are greatly appreciated.

why does this happen?

Hi. Is this all I can ever do for gnats? There’s too much and I wanted to get rid of them completely

I had an issue with root rot on both my Thai constellation, and my black velvet alocasia. For my black velvet I did a peroxide, water, and a tiny bit of neem oil soak on the roots that were left. I threw out the old soil, down sized the pot. For the Thai I have constantly had issues with this plant, either bugs or now root rot. I have went ahead and took some advice from a previous post. Trimmed up the roots soaked in peroxide and water mix. Dried her out for a few minutes and downsized her pot. Now added little small rocks and pebbles to her soil mix to hopefully open up the soil for more air flow. I really appreciate everyone’s help on my previous post. We will see what my lovely plants have in store

Recently half of one of the leaves/branches of my fishbone cactus has turned a paler green than the rest of it. The tip of the lighter green part has also turned a more muted/brown green and is thinner than the rest of the leaf. Any ideas on what I could do to fix it/prevent the brownish color from spreading more?

I've had this Easter Cactus for over a year and all of a sudden it's been dropping leaves. No changes in lighting or water. Any ideas?

Hey y’all, there’s this purpling spreading on my strawberry plant. Is this due to a phosphorous deficiency?

So I got this about a month ago, I’m still sort of new to this type but there’s a lot of conflicting info I feel like. So, could someone tell me what I’m doing wrong? It’s in 65 degrees (I’m in New England so it’s a little chilly inside rn). I have it in bright indirect light. I do have a grow light I could put it under but I don’t know if that would burn it. I water it once the soil is probably like 70% dry. It’s in about 60% humidity. It looks like these spots are from overwatering but the leaves are still more on the crispy side than anything else. I think it may just be cold? Anything will help. Will the leaves recover? Is it okay to prune? Thanks in advance!

Hello, A neighbor just gave me her palm tree in a pot. She kept it in her porch. I am going to keep it in my office. I am going to change the potting soil. I noticed cream spots in a couples of the leaves. Also some of the leaves are broken which I assume I should cut off. I have no idea about the care of this plant. I believe it has potential, but what do I know. Thank you for all your help. This site is great.

Is this scars? Is it scales? Is it old scale shells? It’s all over some of these leaves and it’s so weird looking.

Somebody please tell me I have nothing to worry about and this is definitely not thrips…. Thoughts?

This is my first time having an issue with an Alocasia African Mask. The soil is fairly dense, so I suspect it was waterlogged. I watered it a week ago and the second newest leaf felt soggy and ‘melted’ where the hole is. It is slowly spreading still. Should I cut the leaf off, or just the effected area? The rest of the plant seems good. Soil feels much less dense and wet now, it is damp about an inch down. In a plastic pot

A lot of black tipping on the small pot and one dead leaf on the bigger one but there’s always new leaves coming through, haven’t seen any on the small ones yet. Idk what I’m doing, idk how to keep it from doing this or what’s causing it.

I made a stupid mistake please don’t judge me.. I was turning the lamp off and I knocked my lamp over and it fell on top of my monstera and broke/bent so many leaves. Please tell me what to do to help it recover pics attached.. I’m so heart broken (it fell right in the middle and damaged so much)
