I got this silver dragon 8 days ago, maybe like 2-3 days ago I noticed the bigger leaf started to droop, I thought maybe the pot was too big so I repot it into a smaller pot (today) but unsure if this is the issue, does anyone have any idea what could be wrong? (First photo is the day I got it and second it today)

Hello, Somethings been eating my night blooming jasmine (along with my basil and peppers). I’ve sprayed it with neem oil but the problem persists. Any suggestions on what it may be/what to do? Thanks!

I had a nearly identical issue with this same plant this past March and Jan. Originally I feared the worst, but considered perhaps I’d accidentally dripped fertilizer onto the leaves. In each past case, the decaying progressed and I removed the leaves. Pest? Fungus? I’ve ruled out damage. These two are the most recent issues and began with a strange sheen you may be able to see in the third photo of the same leaf back in mid July. Thank you for any advice you may have if you’re familiar with or have experienced this.

Flf bottom leaves

Hi, My fiddle leaf fig is growing leaves at the bottom instead of having new growth at the top. Should I remove the bottom leaves to redirect the energy to the top? And im also wondering if the top node is dead. Thanks for any suggestions!

Any idea why my hollyhock plant has odd brown spots and yellowing on some of its leaves, and why other leaves have small orange dots on them? Is it a pest problem? Thank you!!

Any ideas why my tornado Dracaena is not growing? It’s been like this for almost a year. The two little leaves in the middle have been that way for almost a year too which is where the new leaves usually come out.

Hello! This is a young fig tree that we just got. It’s not adjusting well. It’s a Chicago fig now in Rhode Island. What should we do?! Thank you!

Woke up to this one falling over! It almost seems too heavy for the bottom half to hold up if I trim the top off, will it regrow?

Ficus Melany. Any thoughts as to why the leaves are turning yellow/brown? Sits in an unobstructed east window and gets quite a bit of morning light. The soil feels completely dry right now (two knuckles in) even though I just watered a few days ago. A lot of water comes out of the drainage hole. Should I bottom water in the shower tub?

Anyone happen to know what’s up with this gal? She’s overall pretty healthy it seems but she’s got a few leaves here and there that are just yellow/brown and look sickly.

So my inch plant is browning and becoming pale. I believe it may be from a lack of humidity (if anyone else has any ideas please let me know) but my main question is can I put a pebble tray in the bottom of this self watering pot? (Last photo) Will it still have the same effect?
