Meet Elena. I think this is my favorite plant she is so beautiful. Does anyone else name their plants?
Hello everyone ☺️👋🏻 my umbrella tree has been growing very well and I’ve been wanting to prune it in a way that will promote more full grow in the middle to have it take on a fluffy tree shape. Would anybody have any suggestions on how I should prune this so that it stops growing out sideways and starts growing in the middle as well as grow taller?
…And there’s growth!! Winter season can be tough in my plants. Freezing cold outside, dry heat inside. But they’re growing!!
If you’re looking for an easy propagation container, ask your grocery store Deli for a rotisserie chicken container. I like these because they are domed and give the plants room to grow a bit. You will also see in the one I got, it already had 2 vent slots in the top. I lifted up the tabs to allow air flow. I am propitiating a Fireworks Begonia that I cut up and stuck in the soil. Excited to see if this propagation will take.
Update! My little rescue pothos that sprouted a new leaf over the holidays, finally unfurled this little beautiful leaf, so proud 😊
hi!! this is dehliah soo i just did some research and apparently the air is to dry for her so there’s dry / browning leave tips is there anything i can do to fix that or will i just have to let it be!?

My aunt wants to go plant shopping with me. She wants more plants because she loves how they look in and outside of her house, but she is so bad with them (she knows this and has said it herself). Any indoor and outdoor recommendations? Succulents are off the table (she can’t stop killing them). Thanks!
I just repotted my Alocasia Micholitziana and separated six larger pups from her. I just wanted to show the size of the corms I found as I've never seen them this big before. Also, if you are in SoCal and would like a corm and/or one of the pups I separated, please reach out. The pups are sitting bare rooted in water until that are claimed or die. Anywhere I can donate them?
Is it worth using a water filtration pitcher for watering my plants? I don't know if they really do enough to warrant the effort...
I don’t have a green thumb like my mom. After getting this app I’ve kept my plants alive for the last 10 months. (Pat on back - woohoo!) When I water my plants now, should I be concerned that drainage happens quickly? (Apologies if this is the wrong forum. Send me a link)
My 85 year old mother and I sell mostly outside plants in front of our home in the summer. We have lots of fun meeting new plant people in our community. We get a lot of people dropping off plant when we are not home. This arrowhead was left last summer and I love it but I'm not sure what to do with it or what type it is. It has a lot of new leaves coming out so I know it's doing pretty good but it has also had a few leave turn brown. It's in the same pot it came in and it has no drain holes so I'm very careful about watering it. I would love any advice/help you plant lovers can offer me. Thanks
Hey I’m new to plants it’s something I’ve been wanting to get into for awhile now. We had a funeral yesterday and well I ended up with plants and I’m not sure fully on the type or why’s best to care for them. I plan on getting a grow light here soon but I’m not sure where to start any advice or help would be great!
I don’t know what I should do with this Swedish ivy anymore lol, it’s taking over. Any suggestions?
So I got this Yucca today but can someone tell me why does it have “legs” 😂? Never seen anything like that before
What is the best leaf shine to use on house plants that won’t hurt them ?
Any suggestions about how to dissect these. It’s for a class
Well, USPS failed to deliver my plants today as they promised. That means they will be sitting in a warehouse in Boston during a polar freeze until Tuesday, so I think they’re probably all dead. I did bring cuttings of a couple of them in my luggage. Sigh.
I just bought this Queen of the night plant and it needs to be repotted cause the roots are growing out of the bottom. It's in a 4 inch nursery pot right now and I was thinking of putting it in a 6" terracotta pot. What do you all think? Thanks for the help
Hi! Does anyone know the approximate timeline of a ZZ plant to mature from propagation? I got this little guy with two of its leaves propagating about 2/3 months ago, and while the plant overall looks like it’s growing, these areas look the same. Do they eventually grow upwards and form stems? I would appreciate any input here for my own curiosity, thank you!
Girlie living her best life in the miscellaneous plant pond ✌️😌. I've actually never had alocasia but I'm rehabbing this for a friend. Not sure if water is the best method so does anyone have advice for getting her to grow anything?
