Help! I inherited this massive parlor palm recently and I’ve pretty much left it alone since. Its size alone is super daunting.
Recently noticed these yellowing spots under the leaves. I’ve checked for pests but nothing more than the odd gnat. Overwatering / underwatering ?

Hello lovelies
Can anybody give me some pointers for my bird of paradise plant? The app suggested to repot and get more light, which I’ve done about 3 days ago…
Thank you (I feel like I’m forever a newbie with some plants…)

I am in desperate need for help identifying and treating a pest. I can’t even get a photo of the larvae because they’re too small for the camera to pick up, even when using a magnifying glass. Here’s what I know:
-They arrived about 6 months ago the first time,unknown vector but perhaps a sweet potato vine
-small, somewhat pointy and yellow/orange larvae that turn into small yellowish/pale winged insects
-eat and destroy the leaves of the plants, seem to effect my philodendron the most
-I thought they were eradicated after I treated with insecticide soap and neem oil, bagged and waited for a month to not see any more of them
-now they’re back, after all this time. My pink princess is getting hit hard
I don’t know how to treat because I can’t figure out the insect, but this seems like an extremely long incubation time. I thought maybe thrips but this is too long for them. Please help! I’m about to just chop up or give up on my pink princess and she’s about 3 ft tall now.

Help! My girlfriend got me this ficus triangularis for Christmas and since I’ve had it it’s been dropping leaves like it’s a competition. It’s still in its original pot so I’m thinking maybe the soil was hydrophobic or not well aerated and top watering wasn’t giving it enough water down to the roots. Just bottom watered it 4 days ago and it’s still dying faster than ever. I have about 12 plants in the exact location of this plant and they are all thriving but this guy just doesn’t have the will to live. Any suggestions? It’s in a south facing window currently and it gets checked for watering once a week, has been getting watered when soil is dry about halfway. The leaves that do fall get these brown dots but none of the leaves have them while alive… only after they fall.

Hey! It’s my first time owning a Golden Photos and I would like to know if I’m doing this right. I see some yellow leaves which concerns me a little. I’ve just got it a week ago, it gets indirect sunlight and I only watered once, yesterday, when I felt the soil a bit dry.
The pot it came in does not have drainage holes so I was thinking of maybe making some holes on the bottom, scared of affecting the roots if I do go ahead and do it. Re planting is an option too but I have been too busy at work lately to do so. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi! I repotted this beauty about 3 weeks ago and leaves began to yellow, turn black and die. It’s been nothing but healthy until the repot. It needed to be repotted because it wasn’t soaking up any water/fertilizer and the roots were coming out of the planter. HELP!

I have a golden Pothos does anyone know why I keep on having yellow leaves like this? It looks like they’re also growing from the roots.

Hello, I am new to owning these adansonii babies and noticed mine started yellowing. Can anyone help me or tell me how I might be able to help it survive? It does have a drainage layer and I recently added it under a grow light as well.

Hello! My Monstera is turning yellow and I believe I know the problem! I watered it before checking the soil and a few days later 3 leaves turned yellow. I’m guessing it is due to overwatering because my plant is also letting off water droplets. It’s been a few days and I do not notice any other leaves yellowing. How can I solve this problem? I’m thinking to prune the yellow leaves since the rest haven’t turned and let the plant dry out before watering again? Can you guys give me some tips to proceed going forward?

Do older monstera leaves turn yellow for no reason? I have done nothing different and all of my other leaves look fine besides two older leaves
