Any advice for my peace lily? Is it normal to droop? I’ve had her for a year.

Can’t help myself…..

HELP! I bought her a week or two ago and repotted her in a smaller pot. (not the one in the picture. Did a smaller terracotta.) Picture of roots was day of repotting from nursery pot and then I watered her with “purived house plant food” And cleaned her leafs with “big leaf energy” and she started falling apart a couple days later. What do I do?

I took home a peace lily plant from my Grandmas funeral today. I would love to be able to propagate it, and give it to all of her kids. But I have no idea what to do. Do I just take a leaf, or do I wait for a certain stem to grow and then cut it and propagate it? Any tips are appreciated. Also care tips for it an appreciated too! Thank you!! 😊

Anyone else feel like Planta’s watering schedule is suddenly like way off?? I have 35 plants and I pay pretty close attention to them, but I’ve had to water quite a few DAYS before Planta was going to tell me. And it won’t fix the algorithm after I add the water 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hi guys, I’m moving in 2-3 weeks, I’m wondering if my plant is already stressed or if there is something wrong with my plant. Multiple leaves snap with light pressure, this morning a new leaf fell off, some of the new leaves have holes across the middle, some leaves I just find lying in the soil the next day, I took a closer view of the roots to see that there were a bunch of black dead leaves, (small, droopy but not thick and represented thick string) I have checked for pests and I don’t see anything, some new leaves as soon as they grow out they curl in (shown in photo) I don’t know if I’m being dramatic and my plant is fine, or if my plant is the dramatic one or if there is actually something wrong with him.

My bird of paradise is unfurling its second new leaf in 4 days!

The first flower on this spider plant stalk opened up this morning!

Hi everyone! I’m new to caring for potted plants and was wondering if anyone had general advice! I have an aloe Vera plant, and this apple mint. I know aloe is a bit easier to take care of (if my mom can keep an aloe plant alive for years, I’m confident I can too lol), but I’ve never cared for mint, and I’ve heard they can be trickier. It wasn’t the healthiest when I picked it up from the nursery. The roots were growing out and around the bottom of the pot and some of the leaves were damaged. I pruned and repotted it, and so far the mint is looking a lot healthier! I have a few concerns about the one long stem with the large curve and slight browning, but the leaves on it are still bright and it still seems strong. Any suggestions are welcome!! (And yes, I did drill drainage holes into the bottom of my pot :) )

Caladiums/“Angel Wings” are my favorite plants and I’ve purchased 4-6. They all average about 6-12”. I bought some bulbs online to try my hand at growing. My first attempt has been remarkable! The first 3 leaves seem to be like those of all my other plants. Then, over the last 7 or so days, this fourth leaf shot up 24 freaking inches! One time I caught it growing 2” in only 2 hours! I put a large Starbucks water bottle next to it for reference. I haven’t even fertilized it yet! Does anyone have any ideas why this stem is so super charged, like it’s on steroids?

Out running errands this morning. I should be safe from buying any plants, right? To bolster my resolve I took the two seater convertible- no room for new plants. Literally thirty minutes after having that thought. (See picture) Here is hoping that the wind from the open top on the drive home blew off any pests. I might need a twelve step program.

Question, so have a Zz plant that I was waiting to repot since it was pushing out two new shoots. The first shoot pushed out and grew to its full height in the space of a month. However, the second shoot has been stalled ever since then and has only grew out maybe a 1/4 inch. At first I thought it was just the other shoot taking energy from it, but now I’m not sure if it just needs a repot to grow further. Any ideas? 😬🌱

Help! I got my fiddle fig a few months ago and the leaves are starting to turn brown and a few have fell off. I looked it up and it said it may be due to under watering so I’ve been giving her more water but I feel like that’s making matters worse. Any ideas? Also how often are you watering your fiddle fig?

I have this Dubia here that I have been considering cutting back . I let it go a little longer than I should have with an extension . My questions are is this normal ? Will the leaves fill in or did I mess it up by waiting to extend ? I was also considering a small clip either way since it’s already past the top of the pole & I don’t think I want it any taller than it is . Thanks!

Does anyone know what kind of plant this is in the teapot?

Does this look like pest damage? I can’t for the life of me figure out/see what is causing this. Thrips maybe? I just want a second opinion before I start panicking lol

I just got this plant yesterday I am thinking about repotting on tomorrow should I? Or should I wait and if so how long before I repot?
