Hi all, can anyone figure out why my citrus tree looks so unhappy? I am worried that it has HLB, but can't tell if the yellow mottling is due to that or just to me not taking care of it correctly. I am in zone 10b, water it about every 5 days, I have slow release fertilizer in the soil, and am using all purpose soil. It is fully outside and gets direct sun from about noon to sunset (7ish hrs). Thanks :)

Hello šŸ¤! I’m wondering if someone can help me figure out what’s happening to my peace lily! I’ve had it in this jar for years, and it’s been fine living in water. Just recently a lot of its leaves turned yellow and I had to cut them off. And now two of them have these little black/brown dots/streaks on the leaves. Does anyone know what’s happening? Or if it’s possible to save it?

I’m having trouble with my rosemary plant. It’s planted outside and is repeatedly attacked by some kind of blight that turns the leaves brown and gray. It eventually kills the entire plant. Anyone know what it might be?

HELP!! I thought I saw some thrips on my baby sun rose plant, so I did some research on natural pesticides. I read that a mixture or dawn dish soap and water works, so I sprayed them down and I come to find this the next day?? I just heavily sprayed them with water to try to wash any soap off and put them way out of the sun. Maybe I had too much soap or maybe that was just poison to begin with but please please send help how do I heal my babies 🄲

Hey all! I bought this lipstick plant about 3 months ago healthy from a nursery, potted it in the same day. It was not doing well, despite me having told the nursery lady the light my room gets, so I repotted it 1 week ago with more soil. I still don’t think it’s doing well! If anyone has any advice I would love to hear it <3

Hi! I have these tiny little bugs that are crawling and in the dirt of my plant and I’m not sure what they are or how to kill them😭. If anybody could help, I would appreciate it. They are in all of my plants and aren’t super visible until I disturb the soil and then they all begin crawling around.

My baby rubber plant is looking very dull and a bit sad i think? I noticed a lot of tiny new growth had dried up and died, which i picked off already. I water her according to plantas advice, and today the soil was BONE dry when i watered it. Plus she’s in a pretty low light spot, should i move her somewhere brighter? And possibly water a bit more often?

What are these and what needs to be done bc I don’t want to harm the flowers or baby peppers? They are so yum and Peppa is one of my plant babies I’m most excited about and invested in now. I have had this for awhile now. Yes I know it got some water and will get more tonight.

Hello all! I have recently bought a house. With said house came all kinds of beautiful plants... but they were not properly cared for. They have fallen leaves all inside of the pots. Should I just replant them and start over fresh? I've never actually been able to keep anything alive so far so any and all help would be appreciated!
