Earth Week Challenge 2: Anything is a Pot🪴
Sustainability means seeing the potential in what we already have.
The mission: We turned an old candle jar into a new outer pot, but the sky is the limit! Whether you’re thrifting unique vessels or upcycling bins and boxes, your only limit is your imagination (and a little bit of durability).
Join the movement and show us your most creative upcycled pot! 💚

Need help with my council tree. I haven’t moved it since I got it from my kitchen window getting morning sun. all of a sudden the leaves are going lighter, yellow/brown. I follow the app for watering… any ideas?

Hello everyone, I hope your babies are doing well. I have a question about my jade plant. She's dropping a lot of leaves and leaning over. What am I doing wrong here? She's under a grow light every day and I'm trying to keep the baby ones alive by keeping the soil moist.

Moving for the first time with plants, and need advice. I know to travel with them in my car (as opposed to in the moving truck), and I’ ve heard that wrapping the pot in cling wrap is a good idea to keep the soil in the pot…
Any other advice? I’m moving an aloe and a Hoya from Colorado to Utah, if it helps.

Just got this baby ponytail palm! Should I repot it into chunky soil?

Do these two philodendrons look ok?! How can I get them to grow more upward with the awkward shape?

This Wednesday is Earth day 🌎 Here at Planta we are celebrating all week with with challenges! Earth Week Challenge 1: Growth is a Gift 🪴✨
We’re starting off Earth Week with a new feature alert: Propagation! 📣
Sustainability isn’t just about today, it’s about thinking ahead. Today, we’re using our new feature to prepare for the future.
The Mission:
Take cuttings from various plants now to prep for future gifts. By the time the next celebration rolls around, you’ll have a rooted, living present ready to go. No plastic, no store-run, just shared growth. ✂️
Join the movement, try out the new feature, and show us what you’re propagating!

Keep or cut the blossoms?
My strawberry plant is already starting to make blossoms. I’m in Seattle (Zone 9) and not sure if I should trim the blossoms to help the plant focus on growth now and nurture blossoms in a few weeks. Or should I just let the blossoms go? It’s a well established plant but only got like 5 berries last year.

Does anyone know what snake plant variety this is? Thank you!

My wife got this plant from a friend who was moving but we have no idea what it is. All the plant identification apps can’t figure it out either. I’m pretty sure it’s some type of succulent because of how thick the leaves are but that’s about it. We have two cats and just want to make sure it’s not toxic to them and also how to care for the plant appropriately. If any experts know please help! Thanks!

Hello plant parents

I think im doing pretty well with my calathea. The only problem is the leaves are curling, I know the problem is the humidity and I’ve put it on a rock tray but they still are slightly curled. Is this normal?

My weekend plant project is finally complete. I hope the frogs love it as much as I do. The Philodendron Brazil will really need to prune itself back though. Made sure to install a waterfall and fans to help water the frogs and plants and keep them healthy and happy 😊
