My dragon tree seems to be doing okay, but I found the soil on top very mouldy the other day and now I’m concerned that this may have been a sign of root rot. I’m a very new plant owner and not sure how to identify whether this is rot or not. Any recommendations? :(

My beautiful baby is dropping a dustpan full of leaves everyday! I brought her in from outside about a month ago. I have a small grow light on 12 hours a day and I have her in the same corner by the window that she’s always loved. Any other suggestions?? Or am I just being as dramatic as she is ???

Help! I sunburnt my plant back in august, and I cut the parts off but she never really recovered. So i got scared and now she’s 20ft away from my window. But it’s not thriving. And then my smaller monstera is doing even worse bruh!!!

So I know there has to be something wrong with this plant that I saved from Walmart, I believe it’s the mermaid tail succulent? Might possibly be wrong so lmk please 😁. The “dead” pieces are like, solidified? They’re so stuck to the point I’m scared to pull them off. The rest of the plant is kinda soft, like not thoroughly cooked noodles soft. I’m hoping there’s a way to save it because I think it’s so unique 🥹, she’s beautiful. 😭

Hello all. This is the second time i post this, but I really need your help to save my Multi-trunk Rebellini Palm Tree. All advices are welcome. My palm tree is dying and I don’t know if is overwatering or under watering. I think is the second, because she is bending her fronds leaves of the trunk still alive inside under and the fronds are turning yellow and brown, so are the tips. Also, her two side trunks lost all of their fronds leaving only a hole in the middle. Before fronds falling off they turned brown and dry. Because of my findings, I keep watering the palm and also added fertilizer with no results. I, too, added coffee and egg shells around the trunk, because I heard it’s good for fertilizer, but I see no change. I tried everything I was told, including peroxide water in the hole with no results. I have uploaded pictures to show from when the issue started until current. Hope it helps determining the problem. Please help. I thank you in advance.

Anyone know what could be going on with my “Rachel” aka my corn plant? She’s gotten huge but also is yellow and not as bright green. Top is dry. I’ve been watering like every 7 to 10 days. Her soil looks good too. Not sure if she needs to be repotted?? Or…

Hello all! I am trying a pothos for the second time due to my last one dying a slow miserable death. Now I’m starting to experience the same trends as my last one. I watered the plant yesterday as well as attaching the moss pole. The bottoms leaves are turning yellow and the bottom half of the plant the leaves are still droopy. The best light I can give it is partial sun partial shade. I did have it hanging but the room it was hanging doesn’t insulate well so at night it gets super cold. I moved it to another room to where it must sit on a table. Can anyone give me some inside knowledge as to what I may be doing wrong?

I’ve had my spider plant for over a month now, and I can’t help but think it looks a bit sad. I’ve never owned one before, but the leaves are warped and furling inwards in lots of places, and there’s also strange nicks and bits that have gone crispy despite me not noticing any damage when I originally bought it. I’ve been following Planta’s watering instructions so I don’t think it’s that, and there’s no bugs on it from what I’ve seen. Is this from too much sun? Too little? What can I do to help it thrive? Thank you! (Sorry for the poor image, I wanted to show as many of the areas of damage as possible within in the one picture limit.)

Hi all!😄 I’m trying to improve my cissus discolor’s care because she has been tough🥲. I am wondering if where I have the humidifier is good enough for her because I know she is a humid loving gal. Thanks!!

This is one of my prized possessions, and they haven’t been doing well for a while. I thought I was over watering but some of the leaves have brown spots while others turn completely yellow (pictured) so I’m not sure. No pests, and it’s about 10 feet from my east facing window that gets morning sun. Please help!

Help!! My monstera Peru was doing so well until she got an infestation of spider mites after being attached to a moss pole :( I sprayed down with water and wiped everything with neem oil and repotted in leca. I thought I was being smart since spider mites like dry areas, but then she got root rot!!:((( Now she is back in soil but I’m worried I cut off too many roots. Should I be worried??

What's wrong with my garlic? The other 3 seem to be doing ok. I have it in full sun and am trying to keep the soil moist but not soaked. Should I be letting the soil dry out a bit more?

I keep having issues with my spider plants. They all seem to be drying out and dying. I am sticking to the care plan. Any ideas why they do that? My other plants seem to be doinng fine, so I don’t think it’s the temperature in my flat.

Calathea orbifolia concerns Hi I’ve had my calathea for about 2months now. She’s thriving but I’ve noticed that all of a sudden her leaves started to get these brown spots. I’ve attached the pictures. She’s next to a humidifier, gets plenty of sun. I checked her soil, it’s pretty much moist. Is this something that could be fungal? It is getting a little cold, so not sure if that correlates as well. Anything helps! She’s my first plant so I want the best for her.

Hello, I am curious to know if my plant watering should change during the winter as well as using a fertilizer. I live in the Midwest so we do have extreme weather. Thank you!

I purchased a Lavender plant and after a few days, it has turned into this. I have no idea what happened. I kept it outside for lots of light, water, etc. I brought it inside my garage to protect it but it hasn’t turned around. Any advice?

I woke up to these fungi popping up on my monstera. Is that a bad thing ?

Hi everyone, need help with my white gardenia. She’s placed in 6+ hrs sun, receives good water amounts everyday, and continues to grow new small leaves. She’s also getting supplements once a week. She’s also losing more leaves than what she grows and is just sticks. Blooming season in my area seems to be around March, now i’m concerned she’s not going to recuperate before then Any help and guidance is appreciated 🙂
