I have this moth orchid, and when i bought her, she had every flower and looked pretty overall healthy, but then about two weeks after i got her some of her flowers began to wilt and then fall. Can somebody tell me what i might be doing wrong, or if this is normal? She’s watered twice a week, and i always make sure all water drains out of her soil before putting her back.
I repotted my fiddle fig about a week ago. Since then, it’s become extremely droopy. The leaves were turning brown, and it was dropping them. I used a soil meter to check the soil moisture, and it was extremely wet, which is why I repotted it. Surprisingly, the roots looked perfectly healthy. Is it just upset about being repotted? I also removed a few offshoots because the plant was very bushy, and the new growth at the bottom couldn’t get enough sunlight. I watered it yesterday because I was away for a week, and the soil dried out. I thought maybe the drooping was due to lack of water, but it still hasn’t perked back up!
Soooo idk what’s going on here? I water her when top 1/2 is dry, fertilizer, she’s about 3ft from filtered light, her leaves are dusted often… What am I doing wrong??
One of my palms has raised black dots on it. Google says this is likely a fungus. I’ve cut out the leaves with black dots and sprayed it with hydrogen peroxide. Has anyone had success getting rid of this are there any other suggestions?
Can anyone help me identify why some of her leaves are turning brown, mushy and others dry and brittle on the ends? Any help is really appreciated!! She’s one of my favorites and I really don’t want her to die on me. Also should I take those leaves off so they don’t make her more sick? Update so she’s doing not so great.. I have her in my humidity dome and she’s just not happy. I try low light, bright, indirect and her leaves still feel really dry and are curling and browning at the ends till they die off. I’ve also checked the roots so idk what it could be
I moved my ZZ plant onto a table that gets low light recently and noticed browning on the leaves. I think it’s just shock but I’m not sure. I checked underneath it to see if roots were coming out because it was root bound and noticed these fuzzy things. Does anyone know what they are?
Just noticed this in the soil. Any idea what it is? I isolated this plant. Any feedback and help would be greatly appreciated!
trying to revive a boston fern, what are all the strands, are they roots? any tips on how to bring it back. Also what is this fuzzy stem growing?
Can anyone please tell me what we have here? Was not there a week ago- the plant is kept outdoors on my porch for the summer, so I would think insect related.? Thoughts and what should I do to help- it’s got quite a bit of these things! Thank you😔
Hi y’all, I hope I can get some assistance. I’ve been growing these apple trees for 6 years now and my largest did grow very few last year. There were no blossoms on either trees, and I started noticing issues with my largest. Does anyone have any idea what’s going on and what I can do? The last pic is my other tree for comparison.
This is one of my Kale plants. Does anyone know what these are? They just appeared and it looks like whatever planted them have been eating the leaves up as well. Any help is appreciated.
What’s wrong with my Monstera?! We currently moved and I had to leave my plants at my old house for about 2 1/2 weeks unattended. I came back to get them and she looked like this…😕 I’m pretty sure not being watered and not enough light but could this be a pest or fungus doing this? Thanks!
Please help I wanted to rescue this syngonium but I left it in the container separate from other plants. But I’m quite new anyone can help? Have a blessed day
my jade pothos had small white (not moving) clumps on her leaves and stems, white mushy spots that would wipe off from touch, tiny yellowish/white egg things in the soil, little brown specks, and some brown holes and scars on her leaves. my first reaction was to spray down with neem oil, so i did- but foolishly i didn't get any pictures of the larger white spots. here are the best photos of them i can get. my initial idea was mealy bugs but i didn't see anything that actually moved. what does this sound like to you? thanks in advance, i really appreciate any help identifying the problem!
i water my calathea once a week but it is still dying. i’ve moved it from a lot of sunlight to now just partial but it’s still not flourishing. whenever i water it a orange liquid comes out the drainage hole. I repotted it a few months ago thinking it will help but it hasn’t. Does anyone know what’s going on? Please help, new plant mom here!!!

Help appreciated! My plants were overwatered by a plant-sitter, and this baby rubber plant appears to be growing mushrooms. How concerned should I be, and how do I get rid of them? (Dig out and repot?) Thanks for any help you can give!
We moved this lovely banana plant to the conservatory and now it looks like it’s dying..is there any way of saving this?? Please help, thank you!
What are these spots?? Is the top spot rust?
HELP! My snow queen pothos is infected with bugs. Ive already repotted it twice in new soil. I’ve been watering with peroxide and water (mostly water) to kill the bugs. I placed cinnamon on top of the soil to prevent flies which has helped. But I still see tiny bugs in the soil. The plant seems to be fine for now. What should I do?
