Got some new babies today! Three on my list that I have wanted. Ring of fire philodendron, pink princess philodendron, and Thai constellation monstera. Any tips to help these babies flourish?

Wondering if anyone here has experience with growing a lightning orchid in a terrarium. From what I have read, these require significant humidity, but roots are susceptible to rot, and it has been mentioned that a terrarium can be a good way to control this if you’re home is low humidity. I can’t really do a humidifier. I’m new to the terrarium world, also. Any info or help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Very excited that my grafted moon cactus is going to have a bloom soon. Maybe it will be on full display in the next couple of days!

From not knowing what type of begonia to flowering and maybe needing a repot 💕

Hello again everyone! It’s Karen! 🥰🌱 Just bought this gorgeous new pickle plant from my local garden centre and I am SO proud of him!!! 🥒😂 He looked so interesting and I thought he would fit perfectly into my ever-growing collection! Not sure what to name him though... any suggestions?! I was thinking Pickles, Percy or maybe Gerald? 🤣🌿 Karen xxx

August is coming to an end, what was your favorite part of having plants this month?! Was it getting a new plant, collecting a harvest you grew yourself, a sweet plant transformation, new setup?! Let's hear the best parts and see some pics if you have them too! 💚

I have a new coffee arabica plant. What soil should be used for indoors and I’m using a grow light. Everything says bright indirect. How should I do that with a grow light. After thought here. Some of the leaves are a pale green/yellow. Thanks

Just got this beautiful rattlesnake plant from American plant exchange. The packaging was excellent and look how well it arrived.

Bought these cute stem holders for my pothos. They snap open/closed so it makes it easy on watering days.

This banana plant has been giving me the blues. She is as initially holding water in her nursery pot. I’ve changed it to a chunky soil mix and now she looks worse than before. I currently have her under a grow light but I’m at a loss.

I’m trying to get help for my outdoor spider plant. Something is eating it, idk what, and I want to treat it before it’s worse. What can I put on it? I’ve attempted to post in other groups, but it never shows up :(

PSA I was just scrolling YouTube when I came across a video from A Current Affair Australia about potting mix almost killing an elderly man. What he had breathed from the potting mix almost killed him. For many years when starting we never wore a mask when dealing with perlite. Under a microscope perlite looks like shards of glass. I recommend never opening a bag of it inside, go outside for a second and dump your perlite in your mix. As a safety I guess we should always wear a mask when mixing soil.

I got this Chinese evergreen back in February for Valentine’s Day and it was half this size if not smaller and it’s grown to this I just recently repotted it but I was wondering if I needed to try to tie it up as you can see it’s wider than it is tall so I need to try and direct the growth into height or just leave it the way it is? I’m trying to have all my plants as happy as can be because I kinda neglected them during my pregnancy and now that I’m not pregnant no more I would love to see all my plants back to being happy

No judgement please… this poor tradescantia nanouk got a bit neglected last year - left in a hot window for longer than I care to admit to. As a result the lengths ended up quite dry and the leaves dried out and went brown. I moved it and kept feeding it but didn’t do much else at the time as I didn’t want to shock it more. I’ve now taken off most of the brown dry dead leaves - I left a bit so you can see if the pics. The ends have grown some healthy (ish) looking bits. I’m not sure if I should prune it back to the middle, repot it and hope for the best or if there’s a better solution, can you do the loop & pin thing you can do with pothos? Or cut the healthiest end bits off and propagate back into the bare bits of the same pot? Thank you for any advice!
