Has this plant been over watered or under watered? Or left in too much light or too little? Any feedback on how I can revive this sad little guy 🥺 (it was currently on a windowsill so in the light, never direct sun, and in a self draining pot) also it’s an Anthurium plant

I watered my string of turtles and noticed a community of things in the water. I had just swapped the pot from a small pothos to the string of turtles. What are they?????? 🤢🤢🤢

I have no idea what's happening to my prayer plant. Just today a perfectly fine leaf turned curly and dry. It keeps growing browned leaves and I feed her tap water with water conditioner to get the chlorine out (buying a water filter soon). She lives in about a 5in pot but is growing roots out of the bottom. Pot bound maybe? Growing medium is between dry and moist at the bottom. Please help! I'm going on vacation tomorrow and don't want to leave her to die 😖

2 part question 1. Snake plant that has been doing amazing. Always been In a south facing window, is now turning brown. I’ve been gone for 3 1/2 days , due to the blinds being open my apt heated up to 75 degrees which I don’t think is the cause for my leaf turning brown. Checked the roots and they look fine. 2. I have an elephant ear plant in Leca (it’s been 2ish weeks) . Just now checked on her and she is growing furry roots. Is this good?

Hi! I was just wondering if anyone knew why my amaryllis looks like this…? I don’t know what they’re supposed to look like, but it’s so… bent??? 😂 does this mean it will die? I really want it to be able to bloom!! does anyone know what I should do about this bent amaryllis? I got it from a Christmas kit as a gift, JUST planted it so it looked like this in the box.

My handsome Robert black velvet plant is slowly dying I think. When I did Dr Planta it suggested he could be under watered. I gave him more water and he perked up a little but today I lost another leaf. There’s only two left. Can he be saved?? Thanks !

Does anyone have any idea what this could be? I've searched the leaves and don't find any bugs or anything near it or on the leaves.

I have a dragon tree and some of the leaves tips are turning brown. Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to help it?

Can anyone tell me what’s growing from my Areca palm? Are these just new sprouts or some sort of infestation?

Please help me with my dieffenbachia. She was beautiful and full when I bought her a few weeks ago. Her leaves started to droop and brown all of a sudden. I moved her to another location and wrapped the pot in bubble wrap to keep her warm. (My family thinks I'm nuts). There are a few healthy leaves and I see signs of new growth. Should I cut off the withering leaves? I'm desperate to help her grow. This is my 3rd dieffenbachia and I'm determined not to fail. Please any advice

My flamingo lily is not doing well. Flowers have died and the stems die and then pop right off when touched. Is this the plant going dormant for winter or am I doing something wrong? (I water her based on the plants schedule and snooze if soils still damp, and she’s under a grow light for a few hours a day)

one of the stems on my monstera snapped but ONLY halfway… I read online if you tape it together, the plant can essentially fuse it back together after some time. Does this look saveable? (top picture is the snap, bottom is with tape)

Hello! I have had my monstera here for about 5 months and has made good progress and growth. The newest leaf has stalled progress for some reason and won’t fully stiffen up. I noticed some mealy bugs about 2 weeks ago and treated the soil, however, the older leaves have started to yellow and fall off. Not sure if I should repot at this time in the season or just wait it out till spring. If anyone knows why this is happening or any solutions that would be great!! :)

Can anyone tell me what kind of plant this is and if I can cut the stem and propagate it with water and replant so it will grow fuller??

An update on my Christmas cactus: The one in the black pot ended up dying off, but when I went downstairs to water some other plants earlier I accidentally snapped some branches off of my grandma’s giant plants so I’ve packed them into a pot to try again. I dutifully neglected the red pot, and she rewarded me with a bud! Hopefully I get a couple more, but if not I’ll be content just knowing she’s happy.

I’m battling thrips right now. 😭 I’ve used neem oil, Castile soap in water, and systemic granules. I’ve also been removing any leaves with thrip damage, and yet they persist. Does anyone have any tips for eradicating thrips?
