😱😱😱😱 I know only you guys would understand my excitement I went to water Mini Pearl and saw that she had a flower!!😱 Then, when I was putting her back on her shelf, I noticed she had another flower !!😱 2 FLOWERS!! I have never had a string of pearls bloom let alone survive my care. So I am super super, super excited!! thanks for letting me share!!

Is there any saving these? Do I need to cut it somewhere?

We're gonna have a scary countdown until Halloween and first one out is... Beware the thrips, the tiny vampires of the plant world! They stealthily suck the life from your leaves, leaving behind a trail of silvery doom. Don’t let these little fiends turn your green friends into mere shadows! Hands up all who won the fight (to share som light) 🙋‍♀️🎃

Four of my plants have thrips. Including both of my Deliciosas. I’ve isolated them but they were surrounded by several other plants, and my baby, Bella, my Jade Pothos, was nearby so I’m checking her diligently but I’m dreading finding one on her! 😫 I’ve heard neem doesn’t work on thrips. Does anyone have success getting rid of thrips completely? Do I need to chop every infested leaf or can they come back from it? Basically I’m going to blast them with water every day to get any newly hatched nasties off, and hopefully they won’t have a chance to lay any new eggs. Any other advice? Picture of my beautiful Bella for attraction.

The app is telling me to trim back 30% on my Coleus Oxford Street! It was the size of my hand when I got it early summer. I have brought it inside since it’s been getting cold at night (I’m in MO) and it is still growing like crazy!! As you can see, there are a few dull leaves, but most are bright and happy. What are the benefits of cutting it back? Can I prop them? How? Will it hurt it to let it keep getting bigger?

Does anyone know what kind of plant this is. The plant checker is trying to say it’s satin pathos but it isn’t.

I’m having some issues understanding what a stake should look like when I’m using it to measure moisture in my plants that prefer to dry out before they get watered. My moisture meter showed that my philodendron was 34% moist, and normally I wouldn’t consider that a plant, with that moisture percentage, should be watered. However, I sent a picture of what the stake looked like after I checked the plant with it. There’s lots of little tiny crumbs, but not a lot of dirt on it. I think it would be really helpful, if some of you experienced Planta members, would show some of us less experienced individuals, what stakes should look like when a plant is not ready to be watered, and a picture of a stake when a plant is ready to be watered. Anybody game? TIA. 🤗💚

Does this mean I can plant that little bulb that fell off?

Hey friends guess what I found a Hoya krimson princess on clearance at Lowe’s for $7 and then like 10 minutes later, I found a huge philodendron pink princess on clearance at meijers for $10! I’ve been wanting both of these for the longest time! Did I just have the luckiest day ever? Yes. Am I taking this as a sign from the universe that I, too, am a princess? Also yes. 🪴👑

Hi everyone, ignoring the VERY COOL halloween decorations, ( i am very compulsive ) this is the only sunlight i get in my room, i have been cursed with a house where the sun is behind me, and i only get little light coming through this window for my plants, do you have any tips on how to have more plants with little sunlight? i am aware you can get the lights however i fear they might be too expensive. Are there any plants that don’t really need sunlight? or any cheap growing lights or alternatives? I want more babies!!! I have 8 at the minute and they are even struggling for their fair share 😖

Going dormant or should I be freaking out?
