There’s flies all over my plants and room! HELP! The plants are healthy and haven’t had any issues in the past few months, but just today I woke up to about 10 flies by my Fishbone Cactus, Heartleaf Philodendron, and Neon Pothos. HELP!

My plant has a pest and it’s driving me nuts. I have tried to treat the l plant with neem oil and a neem oil mixture of water, peppermint oil and Castile soap and I can not get rid of these pests. These pests killed my Swiss cheese and I don’t want to loose any plants. I am sure this pest came on one of my plants that I acquired at a big box chain but I only notice them on vining plants. Why? How do I get rid of them for good? What makes them appear to begin with? What can I do to keep them away?

I used to have a real problem with gnats. I put up sticky paper, and it has taken care of the problem. What did I do initially to cause the problem?

What do I need to do for my cast iron “Milky Way”? She lived on the balcony in part sun/part shade during the tropical Houston summer. She was doing great but then her leaves got this bleached appearance.

What’s everyone’s go-to preventative treatment when bringing a new plant home? Obviously quarantine, and check out the leaves well - but do you sprays their leaves and what with? Bonus for any products found in Canada!

Plants is telling me to water my hurricane asplenium antiquum every 8 days and to keep the soil moist but I am worried about root rot. The internet says when the top layer of soil is dry but also keep the soil moist. Any thoughts on when to water ?

Thrilled because my Kalanchoe finally bloomed but he STILL has bugs! It’s been a year of bugs! I’ve tried removing them by hand, I tried drowning them (I potted him and left submersed in a bucket of water for a few hours), I’ve tried Captain Jack’s Dead Bug spray. I am at a loss. They’re little black bugs in clumps on all part of the plant, but especially towards the center and the flowers. How do I get rid of these pests once and for all!?

Anyone have any tips for browning monstera aurea leaves? I’ve had it for a few months now and the browning spots started very small and have continued to grow. The brown spots aren’t crispy and dry, they still feel like they’ve got some moisture in them. The roots look healthy and I definitely don’t overwater. It’s in a place with all of my other monsteras that are doing pretty well. Apparently it’s super common with monstera aurea but does anyone have anything that may help?

Can some one please tell me if this is disease or is it natural? I'm not sure. If this is a diseases what should I do? The plant has stopped growing. This is a curry leaf plant.

I just received my anthurium from plant mail and I noticed these whitish spots that are kinda transparent and they show on the back of all of the leaves. I’m suspecting it’s a type of fungus that could have happened during shipping but I’m not completely sure. I sprayed fungicide on the leaves in case, please help I just got this plant today 😭

Does anyone know what is happening? The brown spot on the right is really thin and it’s yellowing all around.

Okay can ANYONE please tell me what to do to help Calypso? Planta said shes a golden barrel cactus and shes pretty big, her needles are sharp. Anyways I just noticed her today and Im not good with telling if plants are underwatered or overwatered yet. Her needles are wilting? And planta is saying she has a fungus but I dont know what type of fungus to be able to treat her properly and how to. Planta also said that she had a changed location when I didnt move her? Most of the yellow or spots are around the dirt, the dirt is very dry but it didnt feel compacted and I think she was watered last summer so Im not sure how she could be overwatered. I just put neem oil on her from planta saying fungus. Please someone respond asap cause I am worried! Shes my biggest plant and I dont wanna lose her!

What can I do to keep my ZZ plant from leaning so much?? It’s in an East facing window and there’s a humidifier in the room. I’d say I water this thing maybe once a month? Help me help her!

Hello guys. I have this Christmas cactus that I rescued, it was so dry the dirt couldn’t get a knife through it. I soaked it, saved it, and it’s perked up, grown some babies and got back lots of green. However, when I found it the drought had left its leaves almost completely purple. They are much better now, but it’s been six months and the purple is still there. What’s up? Here’s it now btw
