Newbie here with zero intuition about plants….last weekend I decided I’d give my beautiful begonia a treat and let her have some time in the sun on my patio. Instead she ended up badly sun-scorched. 🤦♀️ Is there anything I can/should do to help her, or just let her rest in the shade?
My spider plant leaves are curling. Any ideas why?
I’ve just begun taking an interest in plants and have had this poor thing in my basement bedroom for the past couple of years. The app tells me it’s a type of geranium, but I’m not even totally sure what it is. There’s a little new growth coming up and then one very etiolated, fragile branch. Any advice on ways to get this plant back into shape? I’ve moved it to a sunnier south-facing window upstairs and pruned off some dead parts but haven’t done much else with it yet.
Recently found fungus gnats in 2 of my 4 philodendrons, I’ve separated most of them, but I’m wondering if I should just repot right away or try a peroxide soak first? This is my first time handling them and I’m not sure what the best course of action is. TIA
My lemon tree has been barley alive for a few years. I almost killed it when I was a new plant mom. I let it hibernate in my basement (55-65 degrees) over the winter. When spring came it got new buds and even 2 flowers. But now it is just barely hanging in there. I have been giving it citrus fertilizer. Watering when the top soil is slightly damp. Any advice? Is it hopeless??
What is eating my leaves? The plant is in my dining room and I can’t see any bugs😖
Hi! I just had what I think is my first encounter with thrips. I can’t see them (I have bad eyes lol) but the damage on the leaves looks like thrip damage. In addition to silvery marks, there are a few holes in leaves and one leaf with brown edges. Could this also be thrip damage? And does anyone have tips on how to treat them (especially on plants with more delicate leaves (nerve plant and oxalis)? Tysmm :)

I have had this peperomia for 5 months now, and I keep seeing two problems. 1) the bottom leaves get large and turn yellow and die off. And then 2) the healthy green foliage never grows any bigger. The leaves stay small, and the overall plant is the same size as when I got it. It just sprouted these two flowering rods, but no other visible growth. I have it in bright indirect light, and I have repotted it and pretty sure no bugs or root rot. Any suggestions?
I have an Audrey Ficus 8ft potted tree and recently the leaves have been turning yellow and black and falling. Others are starting to get yellow dots and I’m afraid my tree is going downhill. Can anyone help? We water once a week. I love our tree. Please help!
