Does this look like fungus or pests on my ruby ficus? I brought her home yesterday, changed out the soil, and the roots look good. These spots are only on this leaf, the rest of the plant looks very healthy.

Can anyone help me saving this fern?

Hello everyone, I adopted this Philodendron Birken from a friend recently and it hasn’t had any growth since last year. Last week I went to repot it and discovered hundreds of little white bugs in the soil first picture!) so I cleaned the roots and have repotted it into new soil and hydroleca mix as it has been suffering from being overwatered. However since then I’ve had more leaves turn brown/mushy and it has grown mould very quickly! I’ve used all my usual tactics to try and get rid of the mould, and it’s only been watered once since repotting, the soil is a decent level of moisture and it’s in a decent spot with indirect light. I have no idea what’s wrong with it, and I’m not sure what to do next! And ideas?

I just got this alocasia plant from a neighbor who is moving. It’s my first alocasia. It looks droopy to me. Any pro tips? Thank you!

This is my Red Vein, she requires lots of sun (which she gets) and proper water and misting which I feel like I do adequately. However, the leaves get crunchy… what am I doing wrong? She also has new life? I’m very confused.

Hello. I brought this prayer plant home about a month ago, and immediately it dropped most of its leaves. I think it had been overwatered at the box store I bought it from. Anyway, I haven’t been able to get it to thrive and I’m wondering if you had some advice that might help. I’m very inexperienced with this plant. Thanks!!!!

This is my Red vein plant, and it is trying to recover from an almost dying situation. I had to trim all her leaves because they were brunt and broken for no water and too much sunlight. She has been like this for the past 7 months, I am keeping her in shade, but small amounts of sunlight, and watering her when she is dry, but she is not growing! Can anybody help me?

My variegated Ming aralia started getting little mushrooms in the soil. They only last about a day but will pop up periodically. Is this a bad thing? If so, what am I doing wrong and how do I get rid of them??

Can someone please tell me what’s wrong with my Ming aralia?? He just started getting a few brown leaves and now the whole thing is droopy… The left picture is when we first got him vs how he looks now on the right

This week, and last, I brought home a bunch of small plants, which I should have sprayed immediately, and didn’t. In the past several days, I have noticed just a few tiny, dark elongated flying insects, maybe 1/16 of an inch with two long and antennae. Do these sound like fungus gnats? Unfortunately I couldn’t get a picture of one; I just squashed before I thought. If you think this is the case, what is the best method of getting rid of them before they infect all of my plants which have just gone through three sprays of neem interspersed by a copper fungicide for black spot? HELP!😵‍💫

My Christmas cactus isn’t growing too much, I have it in the dining room with a little sun and some shade because when it was in the sun room, the leaves were turning yellow, but now it’s not growing as fast as it used to. Does anyone know why?

Can someone tell me if I am doing anything wrong? I had it inside in a window originally, but I didn’t feel like it was getting enough or any sunlight at all. So I decided to move it to the top shelf of a rack I have out on my back porch. I know they don’t need much water, but can anyone recommend any other tips to make it look fantastic? I have a lot of dead vines in the base of the plant too.

Hi need help with our mini palm plant. It’s stopped growing, leaf tips browning, and my husband saw millipedes or centipedes floating in the saucer when we were draining it. The water flows out very quickly too when I water. This palm has been healthy for a year and just now seeing this problem. What may be causing this and how do I get rid of the gross millipedes? Thank you

Kinda new to this whole plant thing and decided to start off easy with some Aloe. I’ve had her for about a week and keep her in the center of my window so she gets all the sunlight. I just noticed this really dark patch base of this arm (if that’s what you want to call it). Just hoping to figure out why it’s doing this so I can prevent it from spreading! TIA

Wrinkling on leaves and roots of my moth orchid? Any advice on how to help this poor guy out? At first I thought the issue was lack of light so I moved it to a sunnier spot where another orchid has been thriving, it’s only been a few weeks but how long should I wait if it doesn’t respond?

I think I made the mistake and potting this in water even tho internet said it would be fine. Anyway, the roots keep rotting so I’ve been removing more and more each week. I really don’t want to kill her :( any tips? Should I pot in leca or back to soil? She hasn’t grown a single leaf since the day of got her two weeks ago.

Can anyone tell me what these spots are? Is it thrips? It’s a new leaf that’s been popping up the past few weeks. I just noticed those brown spots. It hasn’t grown or anything, and I don’t see any movement like a bug on the leaf.

Bought this pink hyacinth today in Tesco’s, it is bending over a bit and very very dry soil so I have just watered it but the drainage pot is glued to the plastic pot. Any help would be appreciated !
