Hi plant people! Can anyone tell me what’s going on with my pothos? It’s about two years old now and the new growth seems to be doing fine but there’s occasionally yellowing leaves near the top existing older ones and brown spots. I should add I’ve recently put it on a more regular watering schedule and put it outside for the warmer months. It’s on a west facing porch that has a roof and receives plenty of direct sunlight. My only thought is maybe heat or sunburn? It has consistently been in the upper 80’s and 90’s where I live.

Pony tail palm has mealybugs. I’m so so so sad. Luckily she was isolated from my other plants but I’ll have to check them all now 🥺

Any idea what’s causing these red spots on the leaves of my fiddle leaf fig?

Any idea of what this might be? And how to treat for it?

Hello! This leggy begonia is the child of a massive plant I originally got in a 15-in planter. It seems to be suffering from the same issue I had with the mother plant. It grows vertically but all of the leaves beneath the top third of the stalk shrivel up in this gray color and die. It’s in well draining soil with east facing light and I water it regularly. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Help! Why is my snake plant doing this?

I’ve had my maranta for a while and have always kept it in the same place, I haven’t changed anything about its routine and it was flowering and experiencing lots of new growth not too long ago but now it’s looking a little rough. Not sure why! Any ideas?

Back to this girl again! She’s not doing any better. I went on vacation for a week and no one looked after her. Two of her 3 leafs fell off while I was gone and then shortly after the third. Any tips of advice would be appreciated on how to revive her!!

Plant has thrips. Rinse her with warm water and wiped her leaves down. Isolated her and used some insect oil and soap.

My neon Pothos continues to struggle with mealy bugs. I’ve repotted it and treated it but they continue to return. Any advice?

New plant mom and I made a huge mistake in repotting my Calathea . I believe she is in shock and possibly root rot.. Can I save her?…

ANYONE KNOW WHAT THIS IS!?! IT LOOKS LIKE EGGS BUT I REALLY HOPE ITS NOT. My string of bananas has been having a rough time so I decided to give it some fresh fry soil and I took it out of the pot to find this… about to chuck this outside if I find out these are eggs 😭😭

Does anyone know what could be causing this to my jade plant. The weather here has been stormy the past week. Is it a lack of light? Pests? I haven't seen any bugs on the plant. The leaf is also turning a lighter green color.

My friend has this maranta plant (prayer plant) that she repotted because she noticed some leaf decay and yellowing. It hasn’t been in harsh sunlight and she waters it from the top. She is wondering what the issue is if anyone can help!

I have the WORST gnat problem with one plant in particular. I bottom water it since it’s one that needs to be watered a ton. I’ve tried the neem oil spray and it’s not fixing it fully. Any tips??

Do these roots look ok? There were a few mushy black roots at the very bottom so I think I caught it in super early stage of root rot. Also, I thought I saw black bugs in the soil of this plant before I threw the soil away. Is there anything else I need to do to this plant to treat/prevent bugs or is it ok since I’ve drowned it?

I brought this caladium home after finding it at the nursery for $3 (what a steal lol) despite me thinking that I have the incorrect growing environment for it. I live in west Texas & it’s 103 & dry. I have it sitting on a picnic table under the tree in my backyard; the back side of my table gets less direct sun where this sitting because I thought the sun was causing burn. However it’s still on a decline & other than it just being too hot & dry outside, I don’t know where else I could be going wrong.. I don’t have windows with good lighting in my home otherwise that’s where it’d be..
