Round 2 of trying to plant my propagations! Last time didn’t go so well, I think it was because I didn’t wait for the roots to be long enough. Here’s to hoping this one goes better! Any tips would be appreciated!

In desperate need of advice! I’ve had this pink princess for about a month now and it was doing great until we moved 19 hours away and it sat in the car and only spritzed with water during our stops/breaks. The three leaves are not doing great at all and I’m really concerned. I’ve recently repotted to a better draining soil about a week ago and did not see any root rot, gets more than enough light in a SE window and grow lights with a humidifier near by.

Very specific question here but I had an idea lol. Has anyone tried putting grow light bulbs in their ceiling recessed lighting? I have a pretty dark space in my home (15 feet from an east facing window) that I keep the recessed light on most of the day and I feel that energy could be put to better use by growing a light loving plant lol. Any thoughts or advice welcome of course! 💚☺️

Is my n’joy ok if the white parts are turning darker/yellow or is it just them being bleached by the sun? The green parts are fine

Hi all! I’ve only just noticed these 2 tiny green buds on Henre’s stem! Are they going to be branches?? He’s been pushing out new growth at the top, but never anywhere else 😲🤔

Hello everyone 🩷 I just got this birds of paradise and I cleaned the leaves with a little mixture I made! But under this one leaf there’s these spots. Does anyone know what this is? I didn’t see any bugs at all besides a few dead gnats when I was cleaning.

Hey y’all! I’ve had my polka dots for a few months now, they have grown sooo much. But I have noticed little pink blooms on my plant. I’ve read that’s the end of their life, once they bloom. Is this anyone’s experience? If this is the case she has lived her purpose, as she is now the new home to five baby birds and a momma bird ❤️

Are you supposed to water after repotting or should I wait a day?

LOOKING FOR ADVICES ON PLANT RECOVERY Just got this poor paradise bird from a second-hand seller and the buddy doesn’t seem very happy :( Gonna do whatever Planta suggests but meanwhile very concerned about her situation. So just would like to ask if anyone have any advices/recommendations about how to take better care of her

New plant mom here! I got this cutting of a snake plant from the cashier at the plant store on my birthday a month ago and I’m so excited for the new roots that are coming in!! When the time comes, what size pot do you guys recommend I put this cutting in?

Bought this frangipani for my bf about 1.5 years ago, has struggled to grow more than 3 leaves at a time. Eventually they all fall off and it starts over. Recently, it’s been looking lovely (last few months) but I just got back from a few days away and it has a couple leaves that are looking yellow/ brown spots. In the past, we have fought spider mites off of these guys. He sits in a partial sun window. Help!

I bought my ficus tree a year ago today and it was very prim and proper. It now looks rather wild! How do I get it to look as it once did?

Does this hypoestes look leggy? The app says this spot I have it in is full sun and too bright but it’s been growing like this here. The lower leaves are getting old and wrinkly and dry but top leaves are nice and bright.

Mildew of mealybugs? This has been a test plant from my friends desk lol I have been saying it’s mealybugs but we are unsure. Can anyone side with me, or is this mildew? It does scratch off

Any other plant enthusiasts get bad dreams where all your plants die or they're covered in pests? No one told me becoming a plant dad would give me nightmares 😂

This is my first Maranta. I have these two pots available. One is ceramic and one is plastic. I don’t care about the look but are these good options for this plant or should I get something else? Thank you
