2 of the 4 Hibiscus I have came down with a bad aphid infestation. Weāve introduced lady bugs and used Neem oil to treat, but there are still signs of the pests. As the temperatures begin to drop in NJ the plants need to be moved inside soon.
Any advice on how to get these pest taken care of so they donāt spread to my other indoor plants? Should we just prune them since weāre running out of time for remedying with treatments?

Spider plant people, help?
I just groomed all the dead leaves out of this baby. These 3 fluffy babies were crammed into a 4ā pot. I put them into a 12ā pot. The watering sked planta has us on- the soil is dry to the bottom. Do they really like this dry? I wonder if it shouldnāt be in a more humid room?? Or maybe sheās too close to the grow light?

It might not be super obvious in this picture but 1/4 stems my Money Tree has, the one pictured in the front of the plant is very soft and bubbled up. According to some quick research it is due to overwatering but Iāve been following recommendations Plantar has given me. Can I still save this Money Tree by cutting the only stem that is rotting?

Ok, so winter FINALLY hit last night. I waited until today when it was supposed to be in the 30ās to bring my plant inside, and when I went out to get it, this is what I saw. It was only in the high 40s so I wasnāt expecting my leaves to wilt. I brought it in to the warmth immediately. Does anybody think it will be OK? The stems are fine, my leaves are just wilted. Thereās no blackening from frost. We havenāt gotten any ice yet. Any suggestions??

My plants seem to have suddenly gotten infected with something white. Not sure what it is but my hibiscus plant is headed for death. It seems like other plants on my patio have gotten the same thing. I have lost one of my plants to this already. Help! I donāt want to lose the rest of the family!

Can anyone tell me what is going wrong with my crĆŖpe myrtle sapling? It was watered and fertilized yesterday. Is it still savable? Prior to this it was fertilized three weeks ago.

Iāve got trouble in paradise š
This is a new leaf that took her time unfurling. I let her do her thing, no pressure. She finally started getting loose and unfurling and came down to this, this morningš„ŗš„ŗ
What could have caused this? Should I have help the leaf unfurl? Do I cut it off to prevent any damage to the rest of her?

Does anyone have success with pony tail palms? Could give me a few tips? Iāve had this almost a year and every time I clean it I have to cut off a ton of dead. Mostly the tips, but some of the new growth didnāt look good this time. It isnāt in direct light. I water it whenever it drys out. My house has a humidity level of about 60+. And I use filtered water. š¤·āāļø

Iām hoping I just had this too close to the grow light. What do yāall think?
