Ok so I have a project where I try to gather the main dates for religions and connected plants to each holiday into one document. It's sorted by:
Date - name of the holiday - religion/name - plant connected to it (if there is any).

I recently bought this plant from Home Depot. My PictureThis identified it as a Caladium but searching it up online none of the photos match. The closet thing I could find was Alocasia silver dragon.
Can anyone help me confirm the name of this plant 😊

Hi. I'm new to houseplants that aren't pothos or spider plants. Bob and Roberta are my first pilea and I had no idea they could flower. Are Bob and Roberta flowering? Is that what I'm seeing? Thanks.

hi all! i am new to plants and my biggest concern/hurdle right now is that i’m not sure how to set up my plants according to their sun needs.
the unit i live in only gets light from northern & eastern windows. do they all need to be under grow lights? would some be okay on the wall with the shoes?
don’t know how to group and organize them and it’s stressing me out! i don’t want to kill them ):
sorry that this is so long but i would really appreciate any advice! can add more info too

Lettuce, is 20+ yrs
Show me the Greens!
Two things:
1. What are these bulb-like things on my string of hearts? Sort of like a root?
2. Do you have any advice on how to make my string fuller? I asked my local nursery and she suggested more direct light and sort of bunching them up on top of the dirt so the nodes can grab onto the dirt and start growing.
Thank you!

Please help! I got this goldfish plant about a year ago and I bought her thriving but now she’s half dead and has yet to put on blooms. I’ve tried new soil a new pot and watering twice a week
