Hey, I have two questions in one post. 1: how big do spider plant pups need to get before cutting. And when you cut them, do you put them in water or soil? 2: do I need to repot my Crassula. A little bit of root is coming out the bottom.
So I inherited this snake plant and Christmas Cactus today from a friend, and they both look so very sad. Is there anything that you guys would recommend doing to get them to perk up?? I have them held up by skewers because they were so wilted 😅
Happy Birthday to me😍 Thanks to my wonderful hubby!
I will tell you what is that mushroom you found and tell me what state you are in. So I can tell you the name
I am trying to be a good plant mother for the first time! My husband said if I can keep an outdoor planter alive this summer I'll be allowed to bring a plant into the house 😂. We've got, Black Petunias, Jet Black Caroline Sweetheart, and two different varieties of Coleus! I really want to build a goth garden!
My kalanchoes flowers keep dying and the buds come in dead already! I don’t water it until the soil dries up a bit, and it has a grow light, what am I doing?
Can anyone help me identify this plant? I decided I’d try my luck with this Walmart clearance plant since it doesn’t look too bad. The pot says “golden Pothos” but ChatGPT says it is a Swiss cheese plant. I immediately noticed the very few fenestrated leaves the plant already has.
Can anyone identify this plant (the one to the far left)? My phone and Planta insist on paddle plant but I don’t think it is. Thanks!
My snow drift is struggling hardcore. I got it a couple days ago so I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. Help?
I had some cuttings from a golden pothos and neon pothos cuttings in the same container and to my surprise this happened! Is this normal? I’ve never had potos fuse together before much less two different types
Hello just picked up a cast iron and spider plant from the nursery and am a beginner. Do they look like they need to be repotted already?
Can someone help me? Why do my hydrangeas look like this? What can I do?
I’ve had this parlor palm for a few months now and overall she’s looking pretty lush, but she’s got some light leaves and some brown tips. She’s also taken some cat-induced violence lol. I’ve started misting her recently (like in the past week) because she’s under a ceiling vent. She’s about 5 ft away from the window, so gets a lot of indirect sunlight but not a lot of direct. Any advice for me?
Does anyone have an idea on how to straighten this guy out?? I have the little skewers around it because it was a lot worse, but I’m hoping to do better.
My alocasia is pushing out huge leaves which I’m happy about but as a result of it being top heavy it’s dropping like crazy. I feel like just using a stake or something to support it won’t correct the significant lean of the main stem by the soil. Any suggestions?
Got an Orchid a week ago. Any maintenance tip? Do I need to repot? Also on the instructions it says to water every 14 days but on the app says every 7 days. What would you recommend? Secondly how do I water it in the pot if it’s not draining? Thanks in advance.
Happy plants 🙃🥰
Hey all! I received an African Violet a few weeks ago. I’ve been letting her get used to her new environment , but will be repotting her today in an African violet pot. I have a question about the soil mix. On hand, I have house plant soil, orchard bark and perlite. Would a combo of any/all of these work or do I really need to buy AV potting mix for this one little plant? Appreciate any advise!

I have this beautiful Swiss cheese, but I have never done any cuttings before, I’m new to the plant era 🤗. I was wondering if I could cut the top 2 leaves and put in water to root? Thank you for the advice and suggestions 🫶🏽
