Just received a Clusia in the mail, from Honolulu. Have never seen these things before. Not sure if it's a bug? Little brown dots coated in a hard white star-shape crust/shell that is very stuck to the leaves.

Is she dying? Seems like I overwatered. I just bought new pot mix today and replaced the original soil. Would that help? What else can i do? T T

Can someone help me? One of the stalks is yellow and I don’t know why. Please help me!! I also don’t know what soil it is because there are rocks covering it if that does something 🤷🏼♂️

Is this soil okay? It’s what came with the plant. My ZZ hasn’t grown at all and I’ve had her probably 2 or 3 months. Should I change the soil to my preferred mixture? I’m torn.

Hey guys! Can anyone help me or let me know if there something wrong with my plant? I’m new to planting so I been struggling trying to figure out what’s going on. The photo of the back of the leaf, with the black spots, I tried to wipe it off but was wondering if that’s normal? It’s apart of it. The photo of the front of the leaf looks like what dust and wipes off easily with a wet cloth, it’s everywhere though including in my soil on the stems and stuff? Anyway I can prevent or someone can tell me what’s going on 😭 thanks in advance :)

Help with this BOP! Bought it couple of days ago from Ikea, made a mistake of taking it out in Texas heat for couple of hours after reading direct sun is good. But that seems to have burned a couple of my leaves. New one is unfurling nicely though. Should I just prune/cut the burned ones? If so, just from the top or I’d have to remove them from the roots?

should i cut the leaves from my chinese money plant that have brown/hard spots? she is extremely overcrowded, and a lot of the more mature leaves have been misshaped because of previous brown spots that practically rips right off. if i do cut the leaves, should i cut at the base of the leaves or further down?

Any ideas on what’s wrong with my Mother of Millions? My first thought was mealy bugs, but I couldn’t locate any insects on the plant. I wiped everything away about 2 weeks ago, but it came back fairly fast.

Hi! I was just wondering if anyone knows what’s going on with my snake plant. About half of the leaves have brown dry spots either on the top or in the middle of the leaves

this is my scindapsus pictus exotica and i have had him since november of last year. this was the plant that started my planty obsession so i have grown very attached. i haven’t changed much in terms of care aside from adding some used coffee grounds from time to time before watering (which i have done for weeks with no issue). recently, i have had some yellowing leaves that was too excessive to be normal that i ended up chopping off. from there the plant grew out two runners and now all the new growth that comes in seems to develop this strange deformed growth pattern. even the older leaves have been developing it too and i can’t seem to get my thriving and healthy plant back. i have checked the leaves for pests and haven’t noticed any webbing either. i would hate to have to chop and prop already but i will if need be. could anyone help me figure this out?? thank youuuu

i recently had to put my 16 year old dog to sleep and potted some succulents into her food bowl as a memorial, but they're not doing too well :( i have them under a grow light and i follow planta's watering schedule, but they're definitely not looking great. if anyone has any tips on how to get them thriving again please let me know! attaching a photo of when i first potted them & how they look now (also a pic of daisy for good luck 💕)

My Hoya rope compacta is starting to get soft and wrinkled in some places. The other stands are fine and firm. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I’ve already lost a couple strands please help!!

Hello! I have this lovely spider plant that seems to be doing well, however it’s falling over and her roots are exposed (I think). I’m pretty inexperienced with plant care, does anyone have any idea what to do to keep her thriving? Does it need a post? More soil? Is it outgrowing this pot? Thanks for any help you can offer!

Help ! I got this string of bananas/dolphin. It was doing beautifully , however the day I brought it home it did get a lot of sun in the car. It quickly started drying out. I have maybe watered it 2-3 times since I got it about a month ago. It keeps on drying I looked at the roots today and I am not sure what it needs ?! I don't want to over water it as I am prone to causing root rot a lot.

Help! My avacado plant has been doing great, but just recently has been browning on two of the 4 leaves. It is currently in water and the roots look fine… is it time to transfer it to soil? What should I do?

Brown spots have appeared on my calathea. This plant sits in my window sill. Is it getting to much sun or what could cause these brown spots?
