Money tree is facing south east. Gets lots of sun throughout the day. A few months ago got house mite infestation that I treated with neem oil sprays – about three times so far over the last several months.. Have new growth but the mature leaves are starting to turn yellow. Is this normal or is it a disease process? Or is it too much sunshine?
I’m new to being a plant mom. Is it normal for my Peace Lily (aka Leaf Erickson) to have a huge clump of soil where the roots are at and have roots showing? He’s been sad lately (drooping) but I think he’s underwatered so I’m going to perk him up with some filtered water.
Ew, what is this?? It looks dead now, but gross
What are these black dots? So So worried
Hi!! I have had a lucky bamboo growing in water for the past 2 years, and it has been doing great the whole time. However, I have recently noticed the tips of its leaves turning yellow. I repotted into a different jar and tried changing the lighting conditions to no avail. Nothing else seems to be wrong with the plant as far as I’m aware, the roots and stem still look and feel normal. Does anyone know what could be wrong with my bamboo and how to care for it better? I am a complete beginner so any advice would be great! Thank you 🎋
Any tips for if my peace lily isn’t growing flowers? I’ve had it for a little over one year and it has only grown them once when I first got it
So I got this monstera Thai conn at Walmart for a deal. It had some pretty obvious signs of distress and the leaves were very brown so I cut the damaged leaves off to hopefully give it a chance to grow new/undamaged leaves. I realize now I probably should have just trimmed the damaged parts of the leaves themselves, oops. It seems to have a sort of stem rot really close to the base, and I’m wondering if there’s anything I can do about that? I’m starting to wonder if the plant is even savable. It also had gnats that I’ve been treating and I’m fairly certain those are gone now. It’s also in the Costa Farms self-watering pot but I’ve been on the fence about repotting it. Any thoughts on what else I can do to help this poor plant?
Tiny worms all over the dirt in my majesty palm??? 🤢

Does anyone know if these are new leaves or mushrooms growing in my beefsteak begonia pot? I noticed one a few days ago and then two more today.
My monstera is a full adult, however the new leaves have no fenestrations, and are just young looking small leaves, do anybody have any tips or advise?
Can anyone tell me what the little black dots are on my variegated jade? I don’t see any thrips. It’s had this for a while and then the leaves on the bottom turn all yellow. This stays outside on my covered porch that is open on the west facing and south facing sides. It lives in succulent gritty mix, no soil
I have fungal gnats what can I do to get rid of them I have using neem oil and hydrogen peroxide and nothing really has happened
Does anyone have a secret weapon against thrips? We got a major infestation from our Christmas tree last year we believe!! I feel like I get control of them and then 90 days later I have another infestation and lose a plant or two. Any tips or tricks appreciated!! (I’m currently using a diluted mixed of hydrogen peroxide, 70% alcohol, rosemary oil soap, tea tree oil soap, I also sprinkle all my plants potted in soil with diatomaceous earth)
I found this fiddle leaf fig on the side of the road. It has 3 stems and each only has 2 leaves. I repotted it and the roots look great, I also cut off the brown parts of some of the leaves and I made sure to not cut too close. Any tips for getting it to grow new leaves and even care tips for my new plant?
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong??? My moon flower looks like it is on the verge of blooming then it starts to droop
Any idea why I have this spot on my plant? There is no signs of bugs and the roots look good. I water when soil is almost dry. So I'm not sure what's going on. I have sprayed with neem oil just in case. Please help
Any suggestions on how to deal with scale? Apparently my orchid had one so I got rid of it, not too sad cause it was a single leaf, but I'm panicking since I don't want my other plants to have it T-T
Noticed some mystery sprouts in my turtle shell plant. I just repotted it into this little bird pot and there was no plant in the pot before. What is this???
Why does my umbrella tree have 3 droopy stems at the top? She’s been watered and has enough light. And she was just repotted? Can I trim those off and prop them maybe? Please help!
