My Raven ZZ arrived today & the Rhizome/bulb/root is exposed a little. Should it be like this or should I pop a bit of houseplant compost in to cover it? Thanks in advance 🙏
hi all!! i just recently bought two plants for my windowless office, a golden pothos and a peace lily, as they were advertised as low-light plants and i thought they’d survive the best. do you think they’d be alright with a sunlight therapy lamp’s ambient light? i’m worried about killing them, but am planning on shining the light on them a few hours a day to make up for the lack of light. edit: if those might not do very well, which plants would you reccomend?
Does anyone know what kind of plant this is? My mom gave it to me and said it was a begonia. The leaf shape looks like one but I’m not sure what kind of begonia it would be.
Can anyone help me identify what this plant is? Thanks in advance! 😄
Recently got a Venus fly trap and I’m wondering what to feed the guy? Should I buy little bugs from the pet store? Would it be okay to go out in my front yard and find little bugs? Also, should I place it next to my humidifier even tho I’m keeping it sitting in water all the time?
I’m going to a plant shop tomorrow and I’m wondering if anyone has any plant suggestions. The spot I’m planning on keeping the plant has a philodendron birkin, deiffenbachia, calathea (Calathea Freddie), spider plant, golden pothos, monstera albo, a maranta and a pink polka dot plant thriving and putting out consistent new growth each week. I’m not opposed to getting the same species as one of my current plants, but I’m also looking for other ones as well!
A makeup gift for my beautiful daughter, a beautiful Calathea. Does anyone know the type of Calathea? All the ones I see online are green
Hullo! Can anyone identify this shamrock plant type? I have an Iron Cross and found this little guy to compliment her. However, Planta keeps pulling up the purple oxalis! As always. Thanks for any input ☺️
Can you use LED lights for grow lights? I’ve heard conflicting opinions. Some say LEDs are just lights and others say it is a cheap alternative to grow lights. 🤷🏻♀️
Seeking Advice! I was gifted this plant 6 months to a year ago. I have no idea what it is as the tag was removed. From my research, it seems to be an Autograph Tree that has been grown in water instead of soil. I really like seeing its roots grow but I’ve seen websites say it is okay and it’s definitely not okay to grow the autograph tree like this. There’s plenty of new leaves that have opened within the last month but the lowest two leaves have started to get yellow tips (one site said that this could be caused by direct sunlight - is now in bright indirect light) I was just wondering if anyone has any experience or advice! This is my only hydroponic plant so any advice is welcomed! Thank you!!
I am looking for a good plant fertilizer. What do you guys recommend?? Thank you :)
Heyyyyy!! Recently started a new planty YouTube channel check it out 👌
What could cause the orchids leaf to turn yellow? I was also thinking of repotting it or at least removing the old orchid mix (haven’t changed it out since it was bought), but not sure if that’s the right move…. Any suggestions or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
Should I be trimming off these flowers on my Jewel Orchid?
I have two identical plants in the exact same spot, and everything is set up the same on the app. Why does it want me to water them on two different days? A few days apart too..
Planta advised me to repot some of my plants, what steps should I take to make sure they need repotting?🤍🪴
Also ….eeeeeeeee . 1 out of 5 of my elephant ear plants are starting to sprout !!! (Idky this photo is so bright)
Wanted to share a picture - I’m so excited about the blooms ♥️♥️
I think my silver squill is going thru root rot? Plants told me to repot her so I decided to just check the roots. I started to un tangle the roots and half of them fell off with the soil. But she’s had been producing 3 new leafs the past 3weeks. Should I place her in the same plastic nursery pot she’s been in or something smaller? (Used finger as scale ) Also I found a hard “root” (pic below) . Is this some type of baby or should I just throw it away?
