have any of you lovely plant parents ever owned a aglaonema pictum tricolor? iāve been eyeing this plant up on etsy but planta is saying it requires very high humidity and i donāt want to order something iāll kill right away š i live in Pennsylvania so itās very cold right now
My current set up š„°. Iām still very much a beginner, but I finally got a humidifier! š my plants have been a little moody with the weather change, so hopefully this helps give them a little boost. šš±
What Planta ID would you enter this snake plant as?
New setup I posted a video on my TikTok if anyone is interested in watching TikTok: kingyiri
This happened to my Alocasia a week ago itās started with a dark spot and then itās dried up and itās a hole Iām not sure what happened it was by it self and everything else with the plant itās great actually planta said it was dry but I list the leaves often and wipe them and the soil itās great as well had anyone experienced this before ?
So this plants in my terrarium I canāt remember what itās called but is it normal for red veins? I donāt fertilize because I have reptiles in this tank..
This is my croton I have at work that I brought back to life cause of my coworkerās neglect lol
Does anyone know what this plant is?
Hi! Beginner here š Are there any benefits in cutting the small leaves off my monstera? Thank you!
My boyfriend bought me this poinsettia from a good seller back at the start of December, but it has struggled ever since I got it. Iāve got lots of plants which are thriving and I donāt know what I need to do with this one as Iāve never had a poinsettia before, donāt want to give up on it but not sure if I should. Itās been in the window getting as many hours of indirect light as possible (thereās no good space for a grow light for it). My flat is very cold but I have kept it in a room which stays between 15-18Ā° which I thought would be okay. Any advice is welcome! Was thinking when itās a bit warmer I could repot it to a smaller pot and ensure all the roots are healthy but want to avoid while itās still so cold. Before and after pics š¢
I live in Alaska where the humidity gets down to 25-30% in the winter. My calatheas and alocasias almost didnāt make it. We also live in a fixer upper house that doesnāt perform like a well built house lol I have many spots where plants are congregated based on their light and humidity need. Several spots are my high humidity loving plants and in order for them to survive and hopefully thrive in winter I first did trays with rocks under each tropical plant and misting per Plantas schedule. That didnāt do anything for overall humidity in the immediate area. I have hygrometers in each spot and the percent didnāt change. I then went all out and added grow lights and humidifiers which added like 20% humidity in my tropical plant room being as how itās a small room. But then we started finding mass amounts of mold all over the place :( and husband says I canāt have the humidifiers going anymore. Weāve done some research and came up with using 55 gallon fish tanks and having acrylic tops custom made to create a terrarium for them. All my plants are of course already potted and I want to keep them that way. I found one site online that said itās just fine to put potted plants in an enclosed terrarium and not have to do anything other than monitor the humidity but I feel like it might be more complicated than thatā¦ Iām looking for any help, insight, advice, experienced knowledge that anyone might have on keeping potted plants in glass aquariums. I really want to keep my tropical plants alive in Alaska lol I do realize that it just might not be feasible as long as we continue living in this house but I want to try everything I can first. Ssssooo please help me :p
So I was blessed today with monstera clippings and Iām not sure about the big leaf. Not sure if thereās enough water cause I didnāt want to go to high. The small one is perfect and should root hopefully š¤š¼but any info is much appreciated
HELP!!!! I rescued this plant from my dadās house. It looked terrible and was dropping leaves. I donāt exactly know how to care for this plant to well. I think itās doing well since it grew new leavesā¦ except for the fact that the leaves were green and not red. Is that normal??? Iāve never really had a poinsettia before
A few of my babies under their grow light I set up today šš
Hi, this is my dieffenbachia, I am new to plants and Iām wondering if I need to get a fungicide for this plant. I recently moved it out of my bedroom and into a room with more light, can anyone help with advice and tips for this plant?
This was labeled as a white knight, but itās only variegation is pink and it has some all black leaves. I see that the stems do look like a white knight but I havenāt seen any others with leaves like this. Is this normal? Thoughts?
Hi! Iāve been growing loquat fruit trees indoor for almost 8 years now. This is one of the most successful trees yet, there are four. Specifically, this one seems to be just over 5 feet. I live in a 6-7 zone, and have been keeping them indoors for their entire life span. They were planted just from seed, and have not been grafted. In my opinion theyāre doing great. Recently these shoots have popped up and I donāt know what to do about them. Also, I would like to know more general information about the plants if anyone can provide! (Specifically when to put them outside during summer, how to prune, and if theyāre able to flower soon) Thank you so much!!
A co worker of mine has a plant that is in need of some TLC. She asked me to take him. I said yes before seeing the sad guy. Is he worth saving? App says spineless Yucca. But what do we think plant enthusiasts? Can we save him?
Recently bought a Spider plant (Bonnie), polka dot plant, string of turtles, and Peperomia. Iāve seen conflicting advice about what level of moisture for each. Iām going to use a moisture meter for them, does anybody use one and have advice on what number to water each one at? What Iāve found has been Peperomia- 1 or 3, Spider-3, Polka dot- 4-5, turtle-4. Some of those seem off to me based on the watering recommendations thatās recommended on this app. Any advice? Thank you!!
Help!! My peace Lily is withering and the spadix are going black.. I water it 1-2x a week and itās in a lit area!!
