I got this tiny African violet about 4 weeks ago. I’ve never had any problems with them, as i have a couple bigger ones. But it turns out to be really small and sad :( I don’t know if i can save it, if there’s anything I can do to help it out tell me. My mom got it for me as a gift while I was gone and potted it with a baby rubber plant (not the best idea). 🌱
Can anyone help me with this plant? I’ve had it for years and it was thriving at first but it’s been months and the leaves always get dry like this. Any idea what can be done to revive it??
Hi! I recently acquired a large money tree that isn’t doing so well in its new home. It’s placed about 5 feet from a south facing window that gets a ton of great light in the morning and early afternoon. Sometimes direct and sometimes in direct. The leaves have black/brown and pale/nude spots on them, some are losing their green pigment overall. I’ve watered it once since I got it when the soil was feeling super dry. Otherwise I’ve tried to leave it alone as to not stress it out any further. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you! 🌱
What is the best pesticide for spider mites ?
Can anyone tell me what’s wrong with my plant? Maybe if the leaves keep dying and falling off I don’t know what to do.
Why is part of my cactus white? Should I be concerned?
Help! I have to hyacinth bulbs that came in water. I thought it was weird to keep them in water but ignored it. The point is that they both have bad bulb rot! And one has mold on it. 🙈🙈🙈 should I cut the rotted part away or what? Thanks 😊
does anyone have tips on how to help my golden pothos? i’ve had it for a couple of months and haven’t seen a whole lot of significant growth, but i keep it in a hanging pot in the corner where it gets access to light but not full time. i water it every 9-10 days, but some of the leaves are folded even though i water it. i have not repotted and initially got it from home depot (before finding a way better local plant shop). there are small little bugs in the soil (there’s a photo of one of the ones i caught) and i don’t know if they’re responsible for the problems in the photos? i have tried apple cider vinegar but it didn’t do anything, and a hydrogen peroxide/water solution seems to help but i don’t know if there’s something better? also the growth of the leaves can be kind of wonky, some grow more side ways don’t fall out of the pot but that could just be how they are lol.
Please help my Mona Lisa Lipstick Plant!! It was doing so well and was so bushy with lots of stems and leaves but the stems are just turning brown and all the leaves just fall off as soon as they grow. What’s happening :(
I have a snake plant and the edges of some of the leaves are turning brown and they’re getting like brown spots in the middle of the leaves. Please tell me what to do.
Hiiii! I got these for Christmas and they had a wax cover on the bottom so one didn’t have to water them. The plants started to look thirsty so I decided to take off the cover and this is what they look like now. (The red thing to the left is the wax covering) What should I do next? And is this how they are supposed to look?
My 3 month old indoor cucumber plant has these clear spots all over. Last year my cucumber around the same age died of this problem. Anyone know what this is and how to solve It?

Hi my areca palm appears to have brown ends of leaves and the leaves going curly. It was next to our radiator which we ended up moving about 2 weeks ago as we noticed the leaves started to curl. However the leaves have started to go brown now. I have been watering regularly and allowing the plant to drain but does anyone have any suggestions on how to rescue it. Thanks!
Hello, I have this polka dot begonia and this new leaf is all of a sudden looks like it’s dying but I’m not sure why? It was perfectly healthy the other day? Does anyone have any ideas?
I tried so hard to keep this ming aralia alive… I didn’t win the battle with this one… dropped all its leaves in 3 days and decided to unalive itself… I love this plant, so will try again….. but it didn’t like its location….
Hi! This is my first and only plant Mercury, and every once in a while when I’m moving her to drain after watering her, a leaf of hers falls off. I’ve been doing everything to try to figure out why but she looks healthy and the leaves that are falling off look healthy so I don’t know what’s causing it. If anyone knows what I can do to fix this please let me know!
It seems that my banana plant leaves are drooping and dying at the stem. The leaf itself is healthy, any thoughts? Maybe time for a repot?
What in the world is this sugary white powder on my syngonium? I just watered it Friday and I water when it’s early 100% dry. It’s treated with systemic granules and lives near a west window. I’ve had this plant for well over a year and it’s NEVER ever done this! Any help would be great!
