Can anyone help me? I’ve had this fiddle leaf fig for over a year and it has never grown another leaf. A couple have fallen off and it just looks really sad…I would love to encourage new growth and leaves right from the base of the stem. Any ideas?! Thank you!

What is my peace lily trying to tell me with these leaves? Too much water or not enough? I feel like I’m getting mixed messages!

Can anyone tell me why my philodendron is retaining moisture all of a sudden? I have had this plant for more than 2 years, repotted last year in plastic nursery pot with lots of holes, has been perfectly happy until now. 😕 Recently I watered it as usual and several of the leaves turned yellow. And the tips are turning brown.
I keep getting reminders to fertilize but the soil remains moist. Any thoughts?
TIA

Virginia bluebells showing some brown bits on the stem close to the soil. Something worth concerning about? Been battling a gnats problem for over a week.

I was given a bouquet of roses, and I wanted to propagate the ZZ (I think?) from the fillers. I noticed these little white “pocks” on the underside of the leaves; are these little critters (or their eggs!) I should be worried about? They otherwise look ok, and I don’t see any bites or anything on the leaves. Thanks!

One of my saddest plants that’s struggled since I moved house a few months ago. I’m not sure how to help it as – due to neglect – it could be down to any number of reasons 😭
For context, I thought I was overwatering it so I let it dry out a bit more than I would have otherwise and then I thought I’d underwatered it and then I wasn’t sure so went back and forth between watering it a lot and a little. Finally I realised a month ago that I’d missed that it was completely pot bound and needed repotting, which I did, but the leaves keep on developing these dark patches. It’s always been a little sensitive, way more so than any of my other pothos have ever been, and I’m worried about making it worse with this scattergun approach.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should try, or is it better to chop and prop and start again? 💔

Hi! I just recently potted this glorious beast after being in water for like 8 months. I’m so scared of her dying and I knew I should have just kept her in water where she was happy. But is there anything anybody can recommend to me to help this plant thrive. The first sign of decline is that the left side of the smaller leaf is turning yellow/ lighter green.

hi guys! hope youve all had a good weekend!
does anyone know whats going on with this leaf on my calathea? its the newest leaf that has the little dots of sticky something underneath it - no sign of pests, and its the only leaf that has this problem. i dont think its from overwatering, as i tend to be an underwaterer - i only water when the leaves start to curl and i can tell it needs a drink (tho that could be the problem lol).
i also think thr plant is a little yellow from too much light/too little water - im working to fix that :)
tiaa!!

My Flaming Katy is confusing me as of late. She’s dropped most of her leaves the past month or two, but trying to flower now. How do I best care for my plant who’s clearly stressed but growing? 🤯

Please help me!!! I had to bring this plant in from outside a couple months ago because it was getting too cold for winter. It did ok for a while and now it’s dropping leaves so fast! I thought it was because it wasn’t getting enough light so I bought a grow light off Amazon. Maybe the grow lamp just isn’t a good one I don’t know but I would love some help on what to do please! :)))))

Does anyone know what is this on my money tree’s leaf? None of the other leaves have this & it’s currently guttating

Hope everyone is having a good weekend so far!
My African Violet’s leaves have been floppy these past few months. It used to be perky but I’m not sure what happened. I water only when the soil is dry and I bottom water (occasionally I’ll top water so it washes out). Usually it perks back up after I water it but it just hasn’t been doing that recently.
Thank you so much in advance!

Hello! I got a Calathea picturata from the clearance section a couple weeks ago, and even though I’m keeping it in the same conditions as my other calathea (who is thriving) this one is doing really poorly and keeps losing leaves. Does anyone know what is wrong with it? It’s not getting direct sunlight and watered regularly. I also have it on a pebble tray to increase humidity and I even started misting it occasionally to see if that’s why it’s leaves were drying up. I’m also watering with Brita water, which my other Calathea likes
