I found one mealybug on my bird of paradise today, what are signs they may be on other plants? I’ve been seeing these mystery white dots on this arrowhead, have been rinsing and treating it just in case since!

I purchased this plant about two weeks ago and the leaves have been steadily yellowing. 1.) I cannot figure out what type of plant this is and 2.) I’ve been advised to cut off the buds so energy can be redirected. Is this good advice?

I am needing to repot my white wizard I just bought. Would this be an okay mixture to buy? What size of pot would I need?

What is going on with my false shamrock? I notice two seemingly distinct issues quite regularly, one is what looks like leaf necrosis in a spotted pattern, the other appear to be malformed leaves. We have no pets in the house, and I haven’t found evidence of insects in the pot or nearby plants. No flying insects seen in the house either.
