Yall I found what I think are thrips AND spider mites on my elephant ear plant! I panicked and cut off the leaves where I saw them and I put it outside, now PLEASE help me treat it😩 I’m hoping I caught it early and it didn’t spread to my other plants!

My hyacinth bulbs were doing well until I noticed these issues today… I planted 2 bulbs like 7wks ago and this morning one of them has a dark hole on its leaf, and the other one is opening up but looks brown inside? Is this normal or is it rotting? Surely it shouldn’t look like that inside? I also read somewhere that they go dormant over summer, which is basically now.. did I just plant them at the wrong time of year? Any advice welcome, I don’t want them to die🫣

Hey could anyone help me identify the problem with my petunia plants? I don’t see any pests and they seem to be growing new bigger leaves each day so they’re not dying I don’t think… but what are these brown marks/holes? Its only a couple of leaves, not the entire plant, but it’s happened to both pots (I have one pot with 4 and one pot with 2 planted) so I’m confused on what it could be?

Hi Guys. My draco plant doesn’t seem the happiest. It has developed dry, brown areas on some of the leaves. I’m sticking to the watering schedule but it doesn’t seem to be getting better. Any suggestions?

Hi friends! I have a Zamioculas Zamiifolia and it just seems really unhappy. Leaves have been falling off like crazy. Originally I think it’s because I wasn’t letting her soak up water over night, but I adjusted the watering method and she’s still losing a ton of leaves. Any ideas?

I have an alocacia dragon tooth plant and it started to flower so I removed the flowers and now one of the leaves are yellowing and drooping! I just bought the plant which was healthy 2 weeks ago and have not repotted and only have watered 2x. What should I do?

Hey do you think there’s something wrong with my plant or do you think it’s just a little too much sun?

Any idea if this is water related or pest related?

I’m a new plant mom to a couple lovely plants, one of them being a Marble Queen Pothos. I’m curious as to why this might be occurring? There has also been new growth that is not marbled and either fully green or fully white. I’m assuming that problem was because it had too much direct sun exposure so I’ve moved it to a better spot. Thanks for any info:)

I repotted my monstera for the first time on Sunday and she looks sad 😭 will she survive? Is there anything else I can do? The blurry pic on the left was taken a few months ago before being repotted obvi, but there’s for reference

Has anyone else had this problem with a money tree before? Every one of mine, and I’ve had three (this one being my fourth), has gotten these white spots on the leaves, and with two of them the leaves eventually turned brown and fell off and the tree dried down to a sort of husk. I tried using water that isn’t from the tap so there’s no chlorine issue, I tried watering them more frequently, less frequently, giving them less light, watering with plant food and without it, but the problem is consistent. Any diagnosis? None of my other 25+ plants have any issue like this so I doubt it’s a pest…

My silver vine seems to be absolutely thriving! One leaf just unraveled and another is about to unravel as well. I did notice however, this supporting part of the vine is turning yellow and looks like it wants to break off. Any suggestions? Does it need to be pruned?

Got this parlor palm for my fathers funeral and I need advice on how to keep it alive… I repotted it first in a plastic pot and I had read that wasn’t good so I repotted it about a month ago in this terracotta pot and put rocks at the bottom to help with drainage just trying to prevent root rot but I still see some of the leaves and stems browning… it’s usually in the bathroom not in direct sunlight I just put it outside to get some rain water yesterday. I try to use the rain but if I have to water from tap I let the water sit for a day… anyone have any useful tips to help a sad girl keep this precious keepsake alive? I had the same plant from my nephews funeral 15 years ago and killed it so I’m hoping to not be a repeat offender here with this one🤞
