I got this cutting from a friend and my cat knocked it over and the leaves fell off until this was left, is there any saving it? I noticed the last leaf has turned yellow and I gave it a bit of fertilizer to give it a boost but don’t know if it will pull through. Any advice is appreciated.

Need some advice. Brand new plant (colocasia black ruffles) and she is not doing well. I just purchased her and she came to me very sad, but over 24 hours she looks worse. She’s in a plastic pot, soil unknown, on top of a tray of water for humidity. Bright, indirect light all day a few ft from the window. Her leaf I took a picture of is crispy and shriveling. The other two look oookkk for now. Very wilty. Update: I did water with Luke-warm facet water (don’t have distilled rn) since her soils was damp, closer to dry side. Any ideas what’s wrong? Thank you!

Hi everyone I don’t have a good record of caring for plants but I’m desperately trying to maintain our yard. Can anyone help me figure out what’s happening to my shunmard oak tree? The bark on the trunk is cracked and lifting. We’re in Arizona so it does get hot in the summer, easily triple digits most days. And the plant is in full sun. We have an automatic drip system to the tree, and add fertilizer and mulch every 6months. I don’t see any signs of larvae or bugs. The side of the trunk that is splitting/lifting is sun facing, the back side of the tree never gets direct sunlight isn’t splitting at all. Is this sun-scald? How do I help the tree?

Can someone help me diagnose what’s happening to my cane plant? It has see thru holes scattered throughout. They only occur on the bottom portion of the entire plant. The Planta AI suggested it’s due to a lack of light.

Pothos Palace

I just brought home this little Silver Sword Pothos. It’s not looking too great but I’m not sure what’s wrong. It was outside when I received but it was about 70 F. Don’t know if it was out last night when temp was lower. I repotted her in a peat moss/perlite/charcoal soil in a plastic cup with lots of drainage. The soil was damp but I did not rewater incase overwatering is the issue. Very small root system but no root rot that I can tell. Now is inside a house where temp is 70-73 and humidity is 40%. No extra humidity has been added to the room, but I also have East facing windows. She won’t be sitting directly on them in her permanent place, but should I set her on a window until she looks better? Thanks for the advice!!!

Hello! I always seem to have a problem growing Chinese money plants. The leaves always fall off and the stalks get tall. The plant is near a window, and I water it on the plants schedule. What am I doing wrong??

Hello everyone. I hope you all are enduring whatever smoke and harsh weather is in your area! I do have a question. My redbud was plagued with caterpillars for the past three years eating all the leaves off of it. Finally this year no caterpillars, but… Now it has these strange black spots all over the leaves. I was wondering if anyone has any idea what is going on. Thank you in advance for any help that is provided. Have a great day! 😊

Hi, I was wondering if I could get some advise on my plant (“Bella”). I only got her a few weeks ago but have noticed some leaves are yellowing/others have shrivelled and gone brown. She’s not very close to the window so not sure if it’s a lack of light? I’ve been watering her once a week ish. Any help and advice would be much appreciated, I’m not very good at keeping my plants alive but want Bella to live on!

I wanted to bring my Pothos inside and checked the soil because it previously was infested and I saw the monsters were back to I checked one of my avocados and sure enough it’s infested too and I think all of my plants might be because they are all together I think they are spring tails but I’m not sure does anyone know what to do😭

Hi all! I am currently treating my entire collection for thrips (evidence on a couple plants, but everything is close together/no room to quarantine so I’m treating all as infected). Last week I added systemic granules to the soil and gave a good spray wing Captain Jack’s Dead Bug brew. Is it safe to fertilize at the same time? Google has been unhelpful :(

I need advice on my bird of paradise. She was one of my first plants, earlier this year when I was a total amateur. I’d say I’m more beginner now. So we faced many issues together. First, there used to be 2 in this pot. I didn’t have her in enough light, and she got root rot bad. I cleaned up her (and her sisters roots) and repotted. I put her on my back porch for more light and heat/humidity (hot summer months at that time). Sister plant died. She dropped many leaves, but somehow made it. She got two new leaves, was doing well. Shortly after this, spider mites. I treated. I cleaned her. I treated again. I’m *pretty sure* they are now gone. I’m at the point now it’s getting colder out and she needs to come inside. I have not repotted, checked roots, I’m honestly scared to touch her. Which brings me to my question: what do I do now 🥲

Hello friends! :) Hoping I can get some help with my honey locust tree. The leaves are turning yellow and falling off. I’ve tried leaving it outside for days to make sure it has enough sunlight. I’ve also been watering twice a week when the soil is dry on the top. I gave it some food, too. Any help is appreciated!
