so I rescued this plant from someone at work last week. it had tons of extremely dry, dead leaves that I cut off and I also cut it out of its tiny root cage that the roots were crammed into. The roots looked healthy and white, no signs of rot. it got a thorough watering (last friday) and the soil is still moist a few inches down. is there anything else i should do other than wait? does it have any chance of being healthy again?
Help! Does anyone have thoughts on what went wrong with this Piper Crocatum?? It spent 2 days in the mail and then 2 days after I received it, it looked like this. The leaves are super floppy and a few just fell off. As soon as I received it I put it under a grow light. The soil was damp so I didn't water it. Not sure how to save it!! š
this is my magesty palm and the tips have turned brown and yellow. any reason as to why?
Is this transfer shock? I just bought this lavender and repotted it almost 2 weeks ago, it did really well the first week and then this week it started wilting. I avoided watering after repotting and it gets sun for most of the day.
Can anyone identify this plant?
Iām not sure if I need to cut this leave off. This is my alocasia Jackie, Iāve had her about 3 weeks now and sheās very young. Iām not sure if these marks are debris or something pushing out of her leaves. They appeared to be imbedded two days ago and now they seem to be āemergingā, (staring at it for periods of time and nothing appears to move) one of them had either a tail or a dark strand on it and thatās now gone as well. The leave and its stem arenāt as dark as her other one. Cut off or just paranoid?
My work has this aloe plant. I have taken it upon myself to repot it this weekend. I have an indoor potting mix and will some extra perlite in it. Would that be okay for this plant? Does it need a bigger pot?
Pink Princess advice please. Yesterday I received a pink princess that was apparently just slowly getting worse. I had a look and there was no roots and the tip on its bases (and what were roots) was just a smelly brown mush. I have cut the bottom off with space to a node and drastically dropped its pot size down. I have also sealed where the cut was made and added a touch of water with half fertiliser to it. I believe she was potted in pumice which was drenched so trying to give her a break from excess water. Is there anything else I can do to help her or just wait and see if she starts to recover?
Should I be concerned??? I repotted my Strelitzia a few weeks ago due to root rot and heās shown signs of surviving and appears rather healthy. However, Iāve started to notice some white residue building around the sticks I placed in. Iāve lifted them up and away from the soil for now but is this a sign root rot is returning? The soil does feel moist about 2 inches below the surfaceā¦
Hey! Can anyone help me identify whatās going on with this string of hearts please? Sheās got black itās on her leaves and they seem to discoloured and look sad. Iāve sprayed for kites but now yeh leaves are turning dark purple and some dying off. š would appreciate any advice x
Hello !!! Newly Plantmom !!! How do I get rid of these buggy ? They are on some pumpkins seeds we planted.. and are they harmful?
Hey yāall, are these little dots a fungus? I thought they were and I was treating it with a spray on fungicide. They havenāt gone away though. The new leaves still have a few dots but not as many. They had them when I got the plant. I figured it picked it up in store. Anyone have suggestions on how to better treat it? TIA
I keep getting sun-bleached leaves here and there Iāve try different placements but it bleaches more only thrives in this spot any ideas ?
Is it ok? There are black branch tips ? Is it normal or not ?? I feel it is sad!
My mini fiddle leaf is turning yellow, and I donāt know what to do :(((((
hi guys my mango seedling is getting some brown spots and i want to know how to help it. And another problem as shown in the pictures are the leaves are getting bitten by something and how i can prevent it could i use some sort of glass cover so the animals cant get to it?
Why is she sagging like this??? Sheās under a grow light 16 hours per day, thereās a humidifier in the room, I water every few days and theyāre in Perlite. What am I doing wrong??
I was soaking my Xerographica last night and I noticed this white splotch. I picked at it with my nail and it didnāt move. It doesnāt feel particularly fuzzy. I also didnāt notice them anywhere else besides whatās shown in the photo. Could this be mealy bugs? Or just a particularly dense grouping of the normal white trichomes on the leaves? Should I try wiping at them with alcohol or spraying the plant with Neem oil just in case? I was hesitant to do that to an airplant for some reason.
Hey might anyone know whatās going on with my JalapeƱo plant?
Anyone know whats causing these grey spots on my watermelon peperomia? Just noticed it today when I went to water it but itās been doing fine previously. Itās only on 2 leaves right now but Iām worried it will spread. help!
