This is an 🆘!! I’ve been struggling with my money tree for almost a year now. Long story short, when we got her she was about four inches, over the course of seven years she grew to about 5-6 feet… and then I’m sorry to say she got root rot. I trimmed and washed the roots, pruned her back by about two feet, removed all the dying foliage, and repotted her in a pot with better soil and proper drainage. Three months under the grow light (Jan-March) and she starts getting new shoots. When she looked strong enough, I moved her back to the spot where she always used to flourish. She keeps getting new sprouts now, but they wilt and die before they can mature. I did a consult with a plant doctor, and they said she wasn’t getting enough light. So a month ago, I started acclimatizing her to the additional light of a grow light. At first she seemed to love it. Then one of the stems started to wither. The plant doctor said it was some kind of rot and I needed to remove it, which I did immediately. But now she’s just sad. None of the new shoots make it past a day or two. Her stems are about 3.5 feet tall, she has no side branches, and just a few teensy wilting leaves at the top. But I’m not ready to give up on her. Would it make sense to prune her all the way down to a foot, give her a smaller pot, and let her build her strength from her root system instead of hoping that these leaves will make it? Or can’t you prune money trees all the way back? Any advice would be so appreciated. She was our first plant, and it was pure luck that she thrived for such a long time because all I did was give her some water once every two weeks and the occasional bit of liquid fertilizer. Please help me save Money Penny! 🙏🏼

Could someone explain why my arrowhead is leaning? Idk if she's leaning for sun or what? She's right in front of the window.

This coleus has died and come back to life more times than I can count in the 8 years I’ve had it. My grandmas been bringing it back to life this last time and I’ve regained possession of her. Any tips and tricks with these? I seem to have a difficult time with them for some reason. Also, if anyone knows what variety of coleus this is, that’s be awesome. I don’t think it’s a ‘Fifth avenue’

Several weeks ago I purchased a Swiss cheese plant on the internet and when it arrived two of the leaves were damaged so I cut them off. A few days ago I noticed a leaf growing from the middle of the stem I had cut. Is this normal? Also every morning drops a what seems to be water. Is that normal?

I just got this pothos a couple of weeks ago that I have been propagating since and was wondering when would be a good time to transfer to soil and what kind of soil? How to transfer pothos to soil?

Hello everyone, I got my three mixed Echeverias at the same time (around two months ago) and they were doing great. The middle one started blooming right after I got them and since then it started losing every leaf under the blooms. Are they trying to kill my plant? Should I cut them off and let the plant recover? They’re not overwatered, as you can see the other two are thriving! Any suggestions will be of great help! Thank you!
