OK, Croton lovers, what am I doing wrong? 😑 I have this plant under a large plant light that covers a 3’ x 3’ area for six plants; I figured that would be enough light for it. However, I have not been able to get it to return to its previous brighter colors. I know it can be very colorful, and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. How can I get my Croton to be the colorful, beautiful plant, that it is supposed to be? TIA… 🤗💚🪴 PS. I use Plant Juice on a regular basis for its fertilizer.

I’ve had my rubber tree for 5ish years and only in the last few months have I learned how to actually care for plants. Now that I’m finally watering correctly etc, there is constant new growth on every branch! However, so many of the bottom leaves have dropped over time and the bottom stems are all bare and not very sturdy. Any idea how to help?

Can I chop my sedum in half and plant the top half? it’s so floppy because it’s missing so many leaves.

I received this Pink Quill for Christmas, less than two weeks ago, and today I opened my eyes, squinted across the room and said, “What is that purple thing?!” I ran over to my plants and was shocked to see this gorgeous purple flower!! So exciting!

Can anyone help me identify this cutting? At first I thought it was a cebu blue pothos, but now I’m not sure. Ignore the purple, that’s a different cutting.

I don’t know if there’s something wrong with my lucky bamboo plant with the tips of its leaves. They’re turning yellow. Should I be concerned?

Hi everyone! I recently noticed I’ve overwatered my Rubber tree and needed to change the soil as it was far too wet. I started to repot the plant but realised the new soil I have has got logged with rain water. Would it be ok to leave the roots like this out of soil for 24hrs until I can get new soil? Any help is much appreciated 🤩

What could be wrong with my Christmas cactus? There were a lot of buds coming out, but only two bloomed. One fell off as a bud.

So i have a few props in a cabinet that i have waited a lil to long to put on moss pole aka lime pothos and a few others. But I want to know if i clip the aerial root back so i can get it on the pole properly. Will the roots grow back and go into the pole or should I just leave the long wild aerial roots to find their way or just dry up. Ps it’s not normally dark in that cabinet I turned the light off so there wasn’t glare.

About grow lights Hello all! So I got a couple grow lights from Amazon. They are full spectrum and have both timing and dimming options. idk how many hours, which brightness, or how close to my plants to them. I plan on putting my zygocactus (false Christmas cactus) and African violet under one and possibly my ruby ficus under another. The former are what I’m most concerned about, I’d like them to keep flowering, but have had to keep them on a cold window sill to get nearly enough light up until now (hence the grow light). Any advice on how to best use these in general and w/ my particular plants would be greatly appreciated!

I have had a continual battle with black spot, and have been using a neem oil spray, and on occasion, a copper fungicide, to treat these diseases. Recently, I’ve heard that neem is not a great treatment as a fungicide; I am hearing that copper fungicide is only a little better. I know there are other stronger fungicides out there, but I can’t find one that’s safe to use in the home with pets and children. Can anybody recommend a sure fire method to get rid of this darn fungus? TIA. 🤗💚🪴

Would you repot this plant? I hear a lot about leaving plants alone in the winter so I wanted to see - would you repot her? Tips are welcome and appreciated!!!
