My Burle Marx Fantasy Philodendron is turning a bit yellow. I just repotted it last week into well draining soil and watered it. It is still wet. HELP. I don’t know what’s wrong with it. Anyone know? or is it just cranky?

Okay peeps. I see all these thriving mini monsteras, and mine used to be thriving until an unfortunate accident with my father putting a heater too close to it… Anyway, I propagated 4 leaves a YEAR ago and this is all the growth it has pushed out since then :/ I think I need to increase watering since it’s been drying out pretty quickly, but other than that I don’t know what to do! Any tips are appreciated!

So two days ago this plant was absolutely beautiful and healthy. Yesterday I noticed that it’s leaves were all pointing down and droopy. Looked like overwatering to me so I took it out of the pot to check the roots. Roots were fine but as I was checking, almost all of the leaves, about eight or nine, fell off. I repotted it and stuck a Tampax in the soil. Have no clue what happened. Didn’t water it any differently and didn’t move it. Any thoughts?

Are these little white things on my moon cactus new blooms or some sort of bug? I took one off and squished it and a liquid came out? They just showed up today from my knowledge

Does anyone know why this Gasteria flow looks like this? I don’t think it’s rot because I don’t really water it all that often. Could it be from the sun? I just don’t want it to die.

Hello! I am a new plant parent and was feeling ambitious and got a fiddle leaf fig 😣 (big mistake). One stem is leaning, the bottom leaves look dropped to me, and I’m worried it’s not happy. I’ve only watered it once since buying it 7 days ago as it was bone dry from Home Depot. I don’t know if it has root rot, needs pruning, a bigger pot? I’m doing my best with a humidifier, indirect light, and pebble tray (water isn’t touching bottom of pot) to make it happy. Any advice is welcome!

Ok, pardon the gross picture of this bug that flew from my plant onto a cup. Is anyone familiar with it? I added cinnamon to the top of the soil and am planning to do a peroxide “wash”/watering. Hoping to hear it (and it’s friends that I imagine are there 😖) will go away 😩

Hey everyone, I recently bought this bird of paradise and it appeared to be in fairly rough shape. I just watered it yesterday based on Planta’s suggestion. What more can I do to help it? It lives inside by a window, but I leave it outside for a few hours after I water it for direct sunlight.

My new PPP’s leaf is starting to yellow, I have her in a south facing window, I repotted her into something a little taller but not wider today. Any suggestions? I got from someone on one of the local mom groups a few days ago and am trying to rehab her.

What is going on here? South facing but under a roof so light isn’t all day. Water sparingly.

what’s going on with my corn plant? i thought it might be fungal infection so i cut some parts of the leaves off, but it didn’t seem to help. there’s golden pothos planted right below it, and it seems unaffected by whatever is happening to the corn plant. i was gifted this plant for my birthday and i really want to fix it, so if anyone has advice i’d really appreciate it
