Hello, I got this pilea back in December and it looked so much healthier when I first bought it (the first photo). Now it’s lost a few leaves (second photo) and it hasn’t grown AT ALL! I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong with it. It lives on my windowsill, I’ve only watered it a couple of times, can anyone shed some light on what I’m doing wrong?
Hello everyone! I have a problem with my Dieffenbachia plant. It was healthy and green in November, but lately, it has started to wither and dry up even though I have been watering it every ten days. I water it whenever the top inch of soil gets dry as well. I am not sure if it's dying or if there is a chance of recovery. Should I cut off the dried leaves and wait for them to recover in the spring?
Anyone know what’s happening with this plant? It keeps popping leaves but they are dying. This is what the leaf looks like. It’s gotta be a pest.
Hello! I have a Dumb Cane (Dieffenbachia) and recently there have been yellow spots coming out around the leaves and new leaves are curling inwards. The soil is still wet (I water it every Friday) so I don’t know what’s going on :( help please!
My pilea keeps getting brown spots on some of its leaves. Why is it doing this and how can I fix it?
The brown on the leaves is slowly growing. What can I do to fix it? What’s wrong with my plant?
Help! I got this plant for Christmas and a couple of the leaves had brown on them. I thought I was over watering it, but I’ve been waiting to water and it’s still not getting any better. Any ideas?

I have a Dracena that has gotten dry brown spots on the leafs, almost looks like it’s molding. I followed care instructions that come with the plant. I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong or it the plant is doomed. If there’s a remedy please help me!
Help! I inherited this massive parlor palm recently and I’ve pretty much left it alone since. Its size alone is super daunting. Recently noticed these yellowing spots under the leaves. I’ve checked for pests but nothing more than the odd gnat. Overwatering / underwatering ?
Hello lovelies Can anybody give me some pointers for my bird of paradise plant? The app suggested to repot and get more light, which I’ve done about 3 days ago… Thank you (I feel like I’m forever a newbie with some plants…)
I am in desperate need for help identifying and treating a pest. I can’t even get a photo of the larvae because they’re too small for the camera to pick up, even when using a magnifying glass. Here’s what I know: -They arrived about 6 months ago the first time,unknown vector but perhaps a sweet potato vine -small, somewhat pointy and yellow/orange larvae that turn into small yellowish/pale winged insects -eat and destroy the leaves of the plants, seem to effect my philodendron the most -I thought they were eradicated after I treated with insecticide soap and neem oil, bagged and waited for a month to not see any more of them -now they’re back, after all this time. My pink princess is getting hit hard I don’t know how to treat because I can’t figure out the insect, but this seems like an extremely long incubation time. I thought maybe thrips but this is too long for them. Please help! I’m about to just chop up or give up on my pink princess and she’s about 3 ft tall now.
My mini monstera isn’t looking so hot these days and not sure where to start to save it. Any tips?
Help! My girlfriend got me this ficus triangularis for Christmas and since I’ve had it it’s been dropping leaves like it’s a competition. It’s still in its original pot so I’m thinking maybe the soil was hydrophobic or not well aerated and top watering wasn’t giving it enough water down to the roots. Just bottom watered it 4 days ago and it’s still dying faster than ever. I have about 12 plants in the exact location of this plant and they are all thriving but this guy just doesn’t have the will to live. Any suggestions? It’s in a south facing window currently and it gets checked for watering once a week, has been getting watered when soil is dry about halfway. The leaves that do fall get these brown dots but none of the leaves have them while alive… only after they fall.
Hey! It’s my first time owning a Golden Photos and I would like to know if I’m doing this right. I see some yellow leaves which concerns me a little. I’ve just got it a week ago, it gets indirect sunlight and I only watered once, yesterday, when I felt the soil a bit dry. The pot it came in does not have drainage holes so I was thinking of maybe making some holes on the bottom, scared of affecting the roots if I do go ahead and do it. Re planting is an option too but I have been too busy at work lately to do so. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
one of my older thai con leafs is getting a black spot on its leaf and I’m not sure why, I don’t over water or underwater her and she gets a good amount of light… anyone know why?
Hi! I repotted this beauty about 3 weeks ago and leaves began to yellow, turn black and die. It’s been nothing but healthy until the repot. It needed to be repotted because it wasn’t soaking up any water/fertilizer and the roots were coming out of the planter. HELP!
I have a golden Pothos does anyone know why I keep on having yellow leaves like this? It looks like they’re also growing from the roots.
Hello! My rubber plant leaves are starting to turn yellow then drop. I’m not sure why. I’d love your help and advice!
Hello, I am new to owning these adansonii babies and noticed mine started yellowing. Can anyone help me or tell me how I might be able to help it survive? It does have a drainage layer and I recently added it under a grow light as well.
