Meet Poppy Pearl. I got her recently and she isnt that strong and has lost so many of her stems and leaves. I’m being so gentle with her now. But is that the tendency of this type of plant?

Which plant fertilizer should I use? I’m looking for a fertilizer for occasional use for all plants. Liquid or granulated- Nothing special -must be affordable. Thanks ! 🪴

The ultimate question: Pumice or Perlite! Specifically, I am trying to increase aeration for my velvet leaf philodendron that needs well draining soil. It has taken forever to dry out in between watering so I need to repot, check for root rot, and give it a new mix. I’m also not looking to spend too much so I would go for perlite if someone has a recommendation of one they really like!

I think I almost killed my kalanchoe hanging basket by keeping it in direct sunlight and not watering it enough. I was trying to identify it but it has small prickly hairs on the stem and I couldn't find what type of kalanchoe had that and these flowers. I trimmed some of the really dead brown and gray parts. There are one or two stems blooming in the back, but what should I do about all the ones dropping around the basket?

Mini Monstera: I would like this guy to fill out. He was a rehab project and has healthy new growth, but it’s all in a single stalk. Do I need to cut him back? If so, how far?

Thumbs up if you agree with my logic. I've had a ruby ficus for almost 10 months. It had 5 leaves, now only 3. I know it's struggling, I've tried several locations, different lighting grow light, sunlight.., tried different water, filtered, distilled, rain...but sometimes it looks like a sprout is going emerge then it dries up. So, now my logic...I bought a larger ficus. I'll put it nearby...hopefully Ruby finds inspiration and starts to grow. 🤗

Hey plant parents🌱 Very recently I got a sunflower from a grocery store. It had one already in full bloom, is now drooping. I want to know if now is good time for me to cut it and trim the leaves around it?

Hi have a variety of plants. Should I use 3-1-2 fertilizer and 20-20-20, 12-36-14, 15-30-15 for the blooming ones. What do y’all use? I’ve never been good with fertilizer.

Should I pick off the dead purple flowers from this Flaming Katy or just let them drop on their own time? They’ve been hanging on for at least a month, maybe two. The pink flowers are new—bloomed within the past 2 weeks.

I have this desert rose plant. I’ve had it for two years now. It has always had a problem of sorts. First time I got it it had aphids. I cleared that up and then I think I overwatered it. Over the past year it was doing way better so I sent it to my husband‘s job. He brought it home looking like this. I repotted it in some cactus soil. I would like to bring it back to recovery. Has anyone cut it down so it can start new growth? Or do I just give it time and let it grow again.
