Someone please tell me what this is all over my hydrangea and how to stop it! I keep cutting the infected leaves off and have thinned out the bush for ventilation, but it seems to be getting worse?

I need help figuring out if this pink princess is salvageable. I moved from NY to GA and it is not happy in the car at all. The roots seem fine. Need to figure out something to do! Right now it’s in a plastic pot w the tape holding it up for transport. It was doing fine before the trip. If anyone has any magical potions or ideas to help plz let me know :)

We have had this planted over this summer and is growing but not blooming. Leaves are a little yellow and near a sprinkler head but not sure if over water or not enough sun or both.

Help! I was given this yucca with the hopes of reviving it. Is this powdery mildew? Or another fungus/pest? It spent time outside last season. It did okay over the winter, but has recently started looking rough again. It’s in an indoor sunroom with part-sun/part-shade. It has fresh soil (all-purpose mix with extra perlite).

Imported plants Indonesia. They finally came today. Thinking this is damage from the long travels. Just want to make sure this doesn't happen due to pest. Roots are okay. No rot. Thinking of cutting the leave off and calling it a day.

Can anyone tell me what happened to my creeping fig!? I moved her into a drainage pot about and week and a half ago and watered her, she’s been doing really well and hangs out by a window and a humidifier. She was completely fine Thursday then yesterday she looked like this! I gave her some more water hoping she’d perk up overnight but she still looks like this today and I’m worried she’s dead. What should I do!!!

Hey everyone! It seems like the leaf is too heavy for the stem. Is there anything I can do to help? It looks like it’s breaking.

guys i need help ID-ing this pest 🫠 These are 3 diff of the (same?) bug on my plant, potentially at different life stages. You can see the white speck on my Alocasia, it was too small for a good photo but it was definitely moving around. I couldn’t even see more of it with my naked eye. I have no other symptoms to go off of unfortunately. I drenched it in insecticide and neem oil and added more systemic granules, don’t worry😋

Hi there. I got a few plants on clearance from my local garden center. This rubber plant is one of them and I’m really hoping to nurse her back to health. All of the spots etc came when I got her. So far I have repotted her in organic soil with perlite. Added a watering spike to hopefully keep myself from over watering. I tested out neem oil on a leaf yesterday and all seemed to go well so might add that. I’m a novice plant mama and this is my first rubber plant. Anyone have any extra advice or thoughts of how I can care for her? Thanks so much!
