Hi, need some help with my Maranta Prayer Plant please. Some leaf tips appear to be going brown at the tips and one of them has this odd circular brown spots too. Any ideas? She’s in a south and west facing room and doesn’t really get direct light - now we’re coming into spring/summer this could change. How much direct light do they like? I love her and want her to be happy! 😍

I posted back in November about my sister Avocado tree that she gave me, and how I hoped it would bounce back from the cold weather trip. She got worse before she got better. Lost all her leaves and had to cut the top because it got so dry and brittle, but now she has new growth! She lives!! 😊 Pic from when she first came home and today
Got this Aloe Vera plant that looks so sick. The soil is so dry and the leaves are brown/drooping at the ends. Can anyone give me advice on how to make it healthy again? I know I should water it, but what should I do about the brown bits?

Hi! My polka dot plant was doing really well earlier this week and over the last few days it’s dropping and shriveling more and more. Could this be root rot? Planta said it was underwatered which I know isn’t the cause.
Does anybody know what’s wrong with my sweet potato. Could it be the decrease in temperature because my room gets very cold?
Hey guys! Does anyone know what these white scratch/bump looking things on my ghost plant are or if they’re a problem? Could they be from too much sun? I’ve had fungus gnats but I’ve finally gotten rid of most of them. Ik those eat dead plant material though and my plant is very much alive. I make SUPER sure not to overwater her. I’ve been using some neem oil mixed into their water for months which has helped with the gnats & the plants seem to love it. She seems happy overall despite the marks & gnats. The marks have only shown up in the past couple weeks. If anyone knows what it is, what causes it, if it’s a problem, & if so, how to fix it please lmk! Thank you for reading & have a lovely day fellow plant lovers! 🫶🏻☀️
My husband bought me this Bird of paradise obviously as a rehab plant lol. I’m guessing this is root rot? Any other guesses as to what this could be before I repot? Also, what are your best treatment plans with handling something like this?
Help! I’m not sure what’s browning my wee white cedar I know I need to repot her but wanted to diagnose her before
I woke up today to a new leaf that opened on my bird of paradise, however the top part of the leaf did not open and now the leaf is split and I don’t know what to do.
Hello! Anyone have ideas on why my monstera recently developed these black spots on just one of the main leaves? Overall the plant is doing well & i inspected for pests but didn’t find any. I let her dry out between watering & she’s been in the same spot for a year & a half so lighting hasn’t changed. Thanks in advance!!
Bought this zebra plant last weekend and it’s already looking really sad and droopy! Does anyone know if this is due to over or under watering?? 🪴🌸
What’s going on with my pothos?? 🧐
I’ve recently moved house and in the messiness of life, some of my plants have paid the price. My tradescantia nanouk is one of these. It was left in a dark space near a radiator (I know 🤦🏻) and lost all its colour and started to go crispy. I’ve repositioned it in the loft room under a skylight, hoping that the light will be better - it’s been a few weeks and it’s looking a bit healthier but the colour hasn’t returned on new leaves. Any advice on how I can help it recover? Or should I trim it back to the coloured bits and start again?
Hey guys I watered this dragon fruit cactus two weeks ago and it instantly got brown limp and mushy. I got it semi-abused so to speak but I’ve given it dryyyyyy soil and bright sun and it just keeps declining. It might look okay but it’s mushy, brown, stems breaking and leaking water and they won’t stay up straight. Help!
Does anyone know how to save my cactus , it’s unseasonably cold in Austin Tx!
I need help with my ZZ! Over the past 4-5 months I’ve lost many of her smaller stems. I water every 3-4 weeks and she gets lots of light through a west facing bathroom window. I repotted from an 8 to a 10 inch pot a couple month ago because I thought she was too cramped. Roots looked good to me. Now another stem just turned yellow and I see yellowing starting on leaves on even another stem. BUT there is new growth for the first time in forever (3 new stems coming). What’s happening?? Also- what’s the best way to remove the stem once the leaves fall?
Got any tips for taking care of indoor spiderplants over the winter? I've been having trouble.
Help! How do I treat mealybugs on African violets?
Hey planty peeps! Kinda new to this app and I tried out the dr program on here but I’m just curious if this app will remind me to check on my rehab plants or how I should go about making sure I remember everything I’ve done with the plant?
