Wanted to start a thread where everyone could share their favorite nurseries and shops to buy their houseplants from. For me, my top two are Ott’s Exotic Plants in Schwenksville, PA, and The Rhoads Garden in North Wales, PA. I highly recommend checking either out if you’re ever in the area. Here’s some photos I’ve taken over the years at Ott’s. Feel free to share your favorite online shops/nurseries greenhouses or Etsy sellers as well if you get more of your plants online, or non-plant-exclusive shops one might not think to check out for plants. TIA! For anyone interested in checking Ott’s out, they are a VERY large nursery. They sell houseplant supplies, soil, pots, seeds, etc. as well, but most people come for their houseplants or mums. Each room has a different selection of houseplants to choose from, including: - a room for peperomias, hoyas, lipstick and goldfish plants, begonias, African violets, and terrarium starter plants - a room for pothos, philodendrons, spider plants, monsteras, and pretty much every other tropical plant you can think of - a front entrance with a seasonal banana plant where you can buy the bananas or banana plants from them. - a koi pond and waterfall, with a staircase that takes you to the top of the nursery so you can look down at their jungle - a long back room stocked with everything from flowers to herbs and vegetables, cacti and succulents (10-15 foot cacti included), bonsai, and very fragrant fruit trees. - stray cats that love to sunbathe on the tables and follow customers around. They’re very sweet, and take lots of cat naps as you walk around.

I bought this pilea about 3 weeks ago and have noticed these weird little marks on some of the leaves. Does anyone know what this could be and how to fix it?

Slightly different post to the usual ones on here- how many people have planta premium and would suggest it as a must have persay? Curious about upgrading but want to get opinions from other people- TIA!🤍 Edit: I’m still learning about my plants and how to care for them so getting all the info on them is my main reason for downloading this app and now looking into the premium.

What are the spots on my fern. Does it need something. It’s growing.

My Gasteraloe isn’t looking too happy lately and I could use some advice. The leaves are starting to get a brownish tint near the base, and a few tips are drying out.Could this be sun stress? I have kept it inside today. The right picture is when it looked fine and healthy.

Just got this plant yesterday! The app said it was an advanced plant. So I’m hoping I can keep it alive!!! If you have any tips to keeping it happy and healthy I’d love to know!

So I am new to plants. Like July of this year new lol anyways, I think I have a couple plants that may need repotting soon, and I am wondering about soil type because I have a variety of plant types. I know some plants like being root bound, some do not. My gold dust croton is in a 3in nursery pot. He has exploded in growth and I’m having to do frequent watering as the soil is completely dry in about 3-4 days. Should it be repotted? Soil type? My galaxy false aralia is also thriving in its 3in nursery pot lol. Also have the same frequent watering. My other plants do not dry out as fast. Should this one be repotted? Soil type? Thank you!

I know this is a bit of a more serious topic, but if you're comfortable sharing, and you've had an experience, how has botany and the houseplant hobby/community helped and/or improved your mental health? Id love to hear your stories if you're comfortable sharing! :)

I was given a Pink Quill for a Christmas present last year. She was in full beautiful bloom - gorgeous pink bracht and little purple flowers for a few weeks. She slowly died and I waited patiently for a pup as I was assured that is the norm for this Planta lifecycle. Eventually a pup started and has grown quite big. I was afraid to separate it from the old mother though and she’s been growing nice. Now I noticed there are two smaller pups! How exciting. I feel like I should probably separate them though. Thoughts? Are the two little ones too small to survive on their own yet? Any one have experience separating them out? I can’t even imagine figuring out the root situation.

My app tells me to winterize my caladium tomorrow and then water it on Wednesday. I don’t understand. If I winterize it, why would I water it?🫤 should I water it tomorrow and then winterize it Wednesday?

Sooo this is my first time actually getting into plants and I fear that I did not know we should not be planting directly in the pots…. Should I replant all of the ones I’ve collected in clear plastic nursery pots or will I give them transplant shock? I don’t know what’s better because even though the pots have drainage they stay really moist for awhile… any advice would be great thanks!! I wanna do them right!!
