My 4 year old Philodendron Rojo Congo is struggling. I moved him from a south facing window to a corner with south and west facing windows. I think he’s getting too much direct sunlight and is losing a leaf every month or so and the lower leaves just look sad and droopy. He is pushing out new growth though. Maybe I should just move it back, but let me know if you have any other tips for a happier plant!
Please help! Can anyone identify what’s going on with my golden pothos? I definitely think it’s some type of pest but I’m not sure what ☹️
My monstera adonsonii hasnt been doing as good as she normally has and I am suspecting some type of pest. We have a fungus gnat problem with another plant and are treating all of our plants for that but from what ive looked up im not sure that's whats causing this? I don't see any obvious signs of pests like spider mites or mealy bugs so im stumped! Spots, yellowing, and some deformed leaves. Thrips? No idea how it would have gotten them or why my other plants arent suffering from them if so. Ill take any advice I can get!
My rubber plant went through a rough time a few months ago and popped out a deformed leaf. It’s new leaves Look great so when is the old leaf going to look normal and is there anything I can do about it?
i got this white knight on clearance a week ago , and the other day the bottom leaf completely dropped and fell off,, planta also said it looks unhealthy, any advice would be greatly appreciated TIA🤍
HELP! is this a mealy bug on my monstera adonsonaii, if so what do i do?
My lemon and lime trees are really struggling and I’m not sure why or what to do!! I just treated my lime tree for mealy bugs! Any tips and tricks for citrus trees would be greatly appreciated!!
What is this on my aloe and should I cut the leaf?
Hi! My peace lily has me perplexed and I'm hoping someone can help me, please. Since she's been in 'flower' she seems to be more thirsty in that every 3 to 4 days she starts drooping, classic sign of dehydration, right? But I didn't think it should be that often. So despite what Planta says, I'll give her a little drink and she perks back up again within a couple of hours. Today she has drooped again, I've felt the soil and it is dry but am I right in saying, this and a few other yellow leaves suggest overwatering, not underwatering? The leaves feel soft too. Does anyone know what my dramatic plant is trying to tell me?
Is this sodiroi or some cross? Leaves are a bit sun bleached, it does have sodiroi coloration
how can i revive my snake plant :(
I am becoming a little disenchanted with my new plant AI app. This is my pickle plant. It gets very stemmy and the old leaves dry out. Yesterday AI told me it wasn't getting enough water so I changed the watering schedule. I asked again today out of curiosity and it told me I was over watering it and should let it dry out more. 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️. Anyone have any ideas why this plant does this? Do I really need to take the whole thing out of the pot to check the roots?
My peace lilly has been in water for a couple of months now, and I have started noticing the leaves looking very pale. I have purchased a peace lilly fertiliser for it that I have sprayed onto it, I was wondering if there’s anything else I can do? Thanks
Why does my dieffenbachia hate me😭 I got this plant a month ago and he looked great, he then started dropping the bottom leaves and shooting up higher and now his final leaf is dying too! I think it’s lack of light so I bought a grow light…any other tips with these?
I thought about throwing away my bulbs, but look how beautiful they are now I love them 😍😍
I’m new to plants. What’s wrong with this plant?
IS THIS A PEST? i’ve never had any before i thought from afar this was just some kind of fungal growth but it looks weird close up. this is my money plant
UPDATE: I asked my plant AI app and it said root rot and what to do. I cut off the rotten part of the root and all the dead leaves and I'm letting it callous over and I'll repot it. We'll see what happens. I don't know how it happened because I always let the soil completely dry out. 🤷♀️ This plant wasn't doing well so I took it out of the pot to check. What the heck??? PS it's a tiger aloe.
Hi, I’m new to indoor plants. I recently got baby birds of paradise. It looked healthy when I got it. I put it on my balcony, and after a few weeks, I noticed those white dots on the leaves. Is that a type of pest or are they just particles from being outside? Thank you for your insights!
Hey everyone! I have a new brown spot on my monstera that I’ve been watching for a week. I think it might be fertilizer burn because it initially popped up post applying fertilizer directly to it because I was lazy and it wasn’t watering day. I used Miracle Gro plant food which according to the package states it’s already diluted and ready to use, but I do typically apply 1 pump to a bowl of water and bottom water my plants. I flushed the soil Thursday morning and it stayed the same size for about 5 days, but just got taller last night. Any thoughts on what to do next?
