Ive had this cutting of a hibiscus plant in water for at least half a year, and it hasnt grown any roots. It even bloomed once, and pushes out tiny leaves sometimes. A friend told me to sorta ”peel” the outside of it, but it hasnt helped. Is there anything i can do to make it root so i can pot it and finally have it grow normally? Like, it has literally been in water for MONTHS and months and months.

Ok, so I know he’s probably a goner, but to help me learn from this, what’s going on with my dragon scale? I got him about 2 months ago. He had 3 leaves and a baby leaf starting. The third leaf went pretty quickly, but it was the oldest leaf so I figured it was fine. Then the baby leaf dried up and died before it unfurled. Now this. I repotted when I got it. I’m not sure what the white stuff is, but I’m positive it’s not bugs since the spots don’t move and the rest of my plants are fine. Humidity is about 45% on average. I’ve been watering when he’s about 80% dry. He’s under a grow light for 14 hours a day.

Ive had my Figgy for over a year now and haven't changed anything but noticed this winter that a couple of the top leaves are a lighter green/on the verge of being yellow. Hes by the window and also has a light since the window is north facing and im in rainy North Vancouver. We did have our fire place on more frequently this winter so Im wondering if that could be the cause, any suggestions?

I made a lot of mistakes with this baby Persian lime tree. Basically I didn’t let her hibernate properly and then repotted her a little aggressively (she had soil heavily compacted around her roots). I got root drops and eased off on the grow lights, but I worry she’s past the point of no return. Do you think she can rally??

Hello all! I am having some issues with my monstera. I’ve had some issues the past couple of weeks with what looks like bite marks on his leaves. I assumed it may be a sneaky kitten attack, but now the leaves are showing these “bites” before the leaf even unfurls and I’ve never caught one of my kitties bothering the plant in the act. Could this be a bug or fungus of sorts??

Hello Everyone, I hope you can help me to save my plant. Lately I have been seeing these black little bugs and it’s making my plant yellow and sad. I have tried to google it but there is no clear answer. I hope someone can help.

Send help!! Pilea is killing lower leaves but still growing new ones? What could be wrong with it. This is a new plant and I have only watered it twice so far. It was perfectly healthy when I bought it. She is sitting in indirect light on a window that gets really good light but the sun is not beaming down on it.

I recently bought this hyacinth from Food City, I don't know what's wrong with it. It's leaves have brown tips as well, this is a temporary pot and we're waiting until cold snaps stop before planting outside.

Hi!! I was gifted this little holiday cactus almost a year ago from a co worker who simply didn’t want it. When I got it, it was fully pink (as you can see in pictures). The base is green and seems healthy otherwise. It has blossomed a few times in the last 6-8 months but it doesn’t seem to produce any new leaves (if that’s what you call them). Any advice of what I should or could do or is it a goner

First occurrence of mealy bugs on beloved Violets. Any tips? Rinsed them off. Planta suggests insecticide. Any recommendations?

I have yellowing leaves and then the thing on the stem is happening. I’m not sure what’s going on. If somebody could help me, I’d appreciate it.

Hi, my anthurium dorayaki is turning yellow. I understand some of leaves getting crunchy/brown from perhaps low humidity, but I’m uncertain why some of the leaves are turning completely yellow but are otherwise physically fine? It’s in a chunky soil, I water every few days with filtered tap water, have a moss collar, and I try my best to keep the humidity high for it in my otherwise dry house. It is currently growing a new leaf that looks healthy so not certain it is a root issue. Could it be related to the water? Thank you!
