I found bugs in my brand-new orchid bought from a local grower. It is potted in sphagnum. Should I replace the sphagnum and repot? Also, do y'all know what kind of bug this is?

When I purchased my Zebra plant I was told to water it by giving it a little mist. I’ve had it for months and just watch it slowly deteriorate 😭 it’s been drying out and tilting sideways, what is happening and how can I fix it?? Left photo- when bought Right photos- present

Hey, I found a small whiteish bug on my orchid today. Can y’all comment photos of all the bugs y’all have encountered over the years with a name, because I couldn’t get a photo of it. 😭😭😭 Edit: I got it from a local grower.

Hi! I’ve had this money tree plant for four months and it seems to be thriving with new growth. I’ve noticed that one of the leaves has turned a bit yellowish with spots and some of the new growth looks a bit like it’s dying off. I water about every 7-8 days and am wondering why the plants leaves are turning this color now? Any advice would be helpful as I don’t want to loose it thanks!

I received this plant from a friend in August. All the leaves s have died with this unfurled one hanging on. It’s looked like this for over a month. It won’t open and there’s dryness on both ends. I’m afraid to over water it but maybe…. I just want to give this one a fighting chance.

I just bought this last week and first one leave was yellowing so I moved it to the window for more light via plant doctor. Now a second leaf is yellowing. I’m not sure when last this was watered but I have a tendency to drown plants. Should I water asap?

I just purchased this Canary Island Date Palm tree and when repotting discovered an ant colony living throughout its roots, any suggestions on how to rid it of these ants?

🆘 I have a gnat infestation. I’ve tried everything: neems oil, mosquito bits, and sticky traps. I just dumped white vinegar in the three plants that seem to be the cause as a last resort before I throw them away. Please help! I love these plants but I cannot handle the gnats. It’s unbearable.

Helppp, my baby rubber plant is wilting like crazy and leaves are dropping every time I touch it. The stems and some leaves are turning brown. I’ve been watering regularly. It has good drainage. Its in an okay place in my room. It gets some indirect sunlight, but not a lot. I don’t know what to do! Everything I tried isn’t working. I just got it a few months ago too!

HELP! I moved her to a spot she could grow longer but she sees sad over here, is this over watering or because of sun coming through the window? There’s not a direct sun that hits her throughout the day though

Calling for help for my Alocasia 🆘 I got this Alocasia Polly a bit over a week ago (PS it’s my very first Alocasia), and honestly the Plant store didn’t have the best conditions and some of the plants didn’t look happy (super risky, I know… but she looked beautiful and I didn’t want her to die there 😢). So I saw right away a yellow/brownish spot on one of the leafs, and a few days in I noticed some tiny netting under the leaves (spider mites I guess 🫨), so I gave her a wash and sprayed her and her soil with a neem oil/dish soap solution). It’s been a week and I haven’t noticed any reappearing, but i will definitely reapply and keep her away from my other plants. Today I also noticed a bit of yellowing on another leaf. What else could it be? Is there any other measurements I can take, from your experience? Thanks in advance!!! 💚

Hello! I got this Begonia a few weeks ago but it doesn’t seem to be doing too well. I repotted it today but I was wondering if anyone had anymore advice on how to revive it. Thank you!! x

Jade Plants and Mealybugs So I have several jade plants in my home and they all seem to periodically struggle with mealybug infestations. I keep following the same protocol- removal with cotton swabs, spraying with Neem oil, sprinkling with diatomaceous earth, and isolation. I’ve even added systemic granules to the soil. But it seems like no matter what I do, they come back. I’m sort of tired of seeing my plants covered in diatomaceous earth, which is just unattractive. How do I get rid of these for once and for all? The newest victim is my Ripple Jade (just noticed the beginnings of an infestation this morning). Is there something better I can do maintenance wise to keep reinfestation from happening? (Bugs aren’t really visible in pictures. The white you see is diatomaceous earth.)

Help!! I have 4 houseplants that are suffering and idk how to help. They are all in the same area so I’m assuming that’s why they’re all affected. I first noticed my monstera adansonii had new leaves that would turn brown before they opened. I thought it was an issue with soil being wet, and after I repotted it in terracotta it seemed to improve. But then I found leaves that looked brown and like they had been eaten, but no visible signs of bugs. Then the leaf on my alocasia zebra started dying and I thought it was growing a new leaf and shedding the old one, but the new leaf hasn’t come and I saw a mealy bug on there. I hosed off all the plants in the area and treated them with neem oil, and repeated the process a week later. Now here I am a week later and I still see small mealy bugs on the zebrina, and all of the other plants in the area now have these brown rust spots. Is it rust? Or is it related to the bugs? I’ve only seen the mealy bugs on the zebrina, and can’t see anything else on the others. I don’t want to lose these plants!

I just was gifted two cacti that are in really really rough shape. I think they have a chance of surviving but any suggestions for helping these guys out?? The bigger one literally had maggots on it 🤢

It’s fall/winter here in the U.S. Is it ok to repot during this time of the year? A couple of my plants need it badly.
