hi there, i know everyone here is likely more interested in their jungle at home than the forests of the world, but our planet is dying and i keep seeing people recommend buying distilled water for houseplants. distilling water is a labor-intensive practice and produces so much waste, especially in the form of plastic jugs. if you have chlorine- or mineral-sensitive plants i’d highly recommend switching to collecting rain water (which has lots of other benefits besides being mostly pure, like its’ slight acidity and trace amounts of organic matter) or filtering and treating your tap water.

Zevo Products - Pricing Information
Hallo.
Recently I purchased the Zevo plug in with 1 cartridge and a single box with 2 refills. I did so based on recommendations here and all i can say is..
Wow! It is Amazing how many gnats it lures in!
My roommate is very thankful it works so well. And so am I.
That’s the good news. The bad news is Zevo thinks people are stupid and will pay any price for anything.
So some shared price research:
- It looks like the H.depot has the Zevo unit and 2 pack bundle for $21.33 which is the only value saver and an actual value bundle.
- The 4 refills in the single Value Pack is NOT a value saver. It actually costs more than buying two packs of 2 refills.
I’m going to write to Zevo, because writing to companies still does work to create change, and I plan on informing them of their no value pricing ways.
Just thought I’d share to save someone else some money.

My new False Christmas Cactus! I named it Shirley, after my grandmother, who loved this plant! She so pretty!

Got my first moon cactus! I need some advice. From research it looks like they like being in small pots and don’t like a lot of room, is this true?
How often do you water?
Thank you!

Need advice. My beautiful money tree has been with me since mid-summer. It thrived in the same spot since I brought it home. About 3 weeks ago it started dropping leaves. This is about 3 -4 days worth of slow dying.
I have gone from AC to Heat in the past month in my home, but that’s the only change. I’m following the water schedule from this app which is about every 14 days and liquid fertilizer every other time. Should I give it more water than recommended?

Helppp! All the new leaves are stunted and turning brown. And I just noticed a few brown spots appearing on a bigger leaf! 😭😭😢 What do you guys this could cause this??

Help with the ID of this one? Scanning says monstera Peru but I’m not sure.

I found this plant in the street about 5 months ago, and the app tells me it’s an anthfytwal, but since I’ve got it from the streets I thought that the old leafs were just sad, but it’s been a while and she got tons of new growth and she is not looking nothing like an anthfytwal, in my opinion looks like an Alocasia, and the way it grows is just like it, but when I found it, it was a piece of stick with roots in one side and leafs in the other like a photos. Can anyone help me to identify it?

does anyone know why my alocasia dragon scale had a yellow tip on the end of a leaf and another small was was half yellow

I wanted to thank everyone here! I got a grow light for my chambeyronia and it appears to be bouncing back. The yellowing has stopped and may even be receding. I think it just needed more light than a Seattle winter could give it!

Part two of my London adventures: A sculpture exhibition at the conservatory inside the Barbican. It combined many of my loves: architecture, plants, and art! The sculptures were made by Ranjani Shettar and were absolutely stunning among the plants.
P.s. the monstera deliciosa’s were fruiting!

A few weeks ago I had the incredible opportunity to travel to London and I spent most of my time at various art exhibitions. This one was a photography exhibition at the Barbican called RE/SISTERS: A Lens on Gender and Ecology. It covered topics such as intersectionality and climate activism. I thought some of you fellow plant lovers would enjoy it or the book they made. It was one of the best art exhibitions I’ve ever been to, and truly thought provoking and fascinating!

Hi everyone! I love lavender so much and I have been trying so hard to find a way to grow it inside. I bought a dwarf lavender plant online and even bought a grow light. It still died.
Does anyone know how to do this? Is there a specific type that works better indoors?

Anyone else finding the watering schedule for your Amplissimum to be way off? I’m on day 9 and app says wait two more days to water. My plant disagrees. It’s in a 6” pot, but I had it listed as a 5” pot. Just bumped it down again to a 4” pot which tells me 8 days to next watering.
