Does anybody know why my spring cactus is wilting and wrinkling? I tried watering it as that’s what the internet said but it’s only getting worse.

My Swiss cheese is not doing as well as I’d like. It’s in indirect sun, humidity around 45-50%, room temp 65-70 and it just keeps getting brown spots on the leaves. Has not been repotted since I bought it about 6 months ago. Any advice would be helpful! Thanks!

Help. Since I brought this plant home it’s had brown spots on the leaves. I have it on a watering schedule. It’s in a room and receives diffuse light.

I have inherited a Jade plant and it is not looking so healthy. I have already had to trim off a lot of the leaves that were terrible looking. I am not sure if I should completely repot the plant- removing the “dead” ones- and keeping the couple that look healthy. Help?!? Is there any hope of bringing the full plant back?? I appreciate the advice and help! 😊

I am new to Philodendrons and got this one recently. It looked great for a month and now it has this on the leaves. What am I doing wrong? Or what should I do?

Please help! I'm new to house plants and picked this guy up at an expo last weekend. All the little baby leaves turned yellow so I pulled them off (I don't know if I should have or not) but now the leaves also look like this. What should I do?? I did look for bugs but didn't see any!

Hi all! Thanks to your comments, I’ve learned I overwatered my snake plant! I’m truly a newb when it comes to house plants, so I’m hoping for some more guidance. It seems like I should cut the dead leaves. How exactly do I go about this? And please speak to me like I’m a kindergartener lol. I’ve never repotted anything before so I’d love to avoid it unless completely necessary.

Hi! I need some help as I am a newer plant parent 😅 These are both of my pothos & I am wondering what is eating them?! We have had some ladybugs in the house so I’m wondering if it’s that? Or if something else is going on?

Hi! I need help! Anyone know anything about Majestic Palms??? I’ve only had it about a month. It looked great when I first got it but it is slowly turning brown everywhere and I don’t understand why. It has plenty of sun and I’m only watering when the app says too.

hi planty friends! I recently repotted my heartleaf philodendron (Phalange) and she has not been doing great since. she’s had a lot of yellow leaves that I’ve been removing and I’ve noticed a lot of her leaves seem weaker and are curling. all of her new leaves have also been dramatically smaller, and I just noticed a tear in one of her leaves as well :( I’ve checked for pests and have been treating for them as well as a preventative, but I haven’t seen any buggies anywhere. does anyone have any idea what could be going on with her or any tips on how to get her thriving again? thanks so much!

I bought Rosemary from grocery store, it look fine and healthy. Then opened the wrap to see there’s black mold looking thing underneath. Is it mold? Is it better trashed? Hopefully salvaged but I am not sure….when I rub it can be taken off, not really like stain.

Help Please!!! These gnats….they are in all of my indoor plant’s soil and they fly around your face! I’ve been thinking of using neem oil. I can’t spray. (disabled) I asked about putting on a cloth and laying on top of soil, most everyone said I could mix it in the water and just water the plants. I’m wondering if there is another suggestion other than neem oil?? Especially for gnats.

Hi Plant People! My first post. This is my beloved Fi Fi. I have had her 2-3 years, she's done wonderfully, never an issue (slow growth of a leaf or two a year.) She's been turning white at the base of some leaves, and have had several fall off within the week!! Many are drooping and turning yellow also. This is very distressing and will take any/all wisdom/advice/tips to help save my dear Fi Fi. ❤️🙏 UPDATE: Its a fungus infection. And tips?!

Hi my fiddle leaf fig has gradually shown this browning and cracking on some of the leaves. Additionally, there is significant dropping now. I feel like it might not be bright enough but also im worried I might not be watering it enough. the plant is very large so watering can be a challenge. any advice would be greatly appreciated !

Does anyone have advice on helping my Snake plant? I’m trying to revive him but he’s pretty shrivelled and hasn’t grown hardly at all in the last two years.

These are mock strawberries (Potentilla Indica). It’s a quick spreading invasive species. It’s not wild strawberries which are delicious. These fruits are tasteless.😖 The fruit points skyward. Fruit on wild strawberries dangle. This weed has covered a 5 ft x 30 ft wide area along my back fence since the uncommon winter snow this year that killed most of the grass in that area. 😩

Hey team! New to the app and wanted to pick your beautiful brains. Bought this beautiful fiddle in January and he was doing good, until recently, I noticed some mealy bugs/spider mites (or whatever they are called). Used very diluted water and soap to wipe off the leaves and then purchased the neel oil (on day 3). I love this tree lots and don’t want to steer him wrong but am not sure if I’m approaching properly. Anyone know the issue or have suggestions?? Thanks in advance.
