Any thoughts on what’s wrong with these leaves? The tree looks healthy otherwise. Never had a money tree before. 🙃 I rescued this guy from the local Lowe’s four days ago— he was so dry he was coming out of the pot, so I replaced the topsoil and gave him a good soaking. He sits in the bathroom, with small north and west facing windows. No direct sunlight. Humidifier running overnight.
i fertilized my plants a couple of days ago and the ones i fertilized grew a white mold. I sprayed it with baking soda/water mixture yesterday but it came back within 4 hours.. im not sure what to do
Help! My prayer plant has started browning at the tips of the leaves. I currently keep her in the windowsill in the basement and water her weekly. She was doing well up until a couple weeks ago and started browning and turning yellow. I’ve had her about six months and reported about 2 months ago.
does anyone have advice for my dying african violet? i thought she’d be fine in a ceramic pot with no draining (she wasn’t) i repotted her and im trying to reverse the overwatering damage.

Over watered or underwatered? It seems over watered but I havent watered it for a while 😕 I lightly spray the soil at least once a week and it is close to a window that gets lots of sun. Any advice is much appreciated! 🙂
Help…. is this scale or part of the tree and can I save him? I read scales should easily scrape off with your fingernail and squish like a bug. None of these scrape off easy nor do they squish like a bug. I’m so confused cause of it. He was beautiful a few weeks ago and now his new leaves are growing wonkey and he’s recently lost a lot of them plus I snipped off some of the really bad ones just Incase they were scale. Any help is appreciated.
Hello Everyone, I am having an issue with my Dracaena Lemon Lime. The leaves are turning brown, and I do not know why. I live in Seattle, and the plant is right next to a window that received decent indirect sunlight (4-6 hours a day). It also has a self watering container because I purchased it from “easyplant”. The plant container acts like a bottom-watering system. I have attached pictures. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
We got a money tree a few weeks back! But leaves have started to turn a bit yellow. It’s near a south facing window, in a large pot that has drainage. We were told a little yellow and falling leaves is natural given shock from transportation / delivery. However, this looks excessive. We were also told to water every 15 days and just recently watered it and some leaves turned yellow the next day. Any advice / thoughts?
Any ideas on this Florida Ghost? Looked melted, but wet to touch. Approximately 3 ft from grow light. No other leaves affected.
Any tips on spider mites? I have rinsed with water (the best I can since the plant is in my work building) and I’ve wiped down the leaves and stems. Not sure what to do next. I don’t want to use hydrogen peroxide if I don’t have to, I have neem oil I was planning to use but the office window is south facing, I don’t want to burn my plant so I wanted to get some extra tips first!

I need some help with my dieffenbachia. Not sure what’s happening but it’s been looking like this for few months now. I follow Planta’s schedule with watering and fertilizer but it doesn’t seem to make any progress. It got bad when I was away on holiday and never came back but also never died 🤷🏻♂️
Pretty sure it’s mealy bugs but I haven’t had them before for not positive? Help. Also I know I have to treat it but I want to do so without causing crown rot. I know I need to spray the fern and get rid of the bugs I just have gotten crown rot from getting water in the crown before. I’m not sure how to avoid getting water in crown bc that’s where a lot of bugs are.
My olive tree sheds its leaves SO MUCH. Is it still fine? Looks like branches downside are getting stiff and leaves are curled. Or I should take out from the pot and examine the roots?
What can I do to help my Swiss!?🙏🏽
Do you guys know what I’m doing wrong? I recently got this plant from Aldi (it had a dead leaf already - which I cut off. I also repotted it as I noticed one tiny spider mite on the leaf. Now it’s got one droopy leaf and one leaf with brown dots around it. I checked for spider mites and it’s clean. Any idea why it’s sad? What shall I do to bring it back to life?
