hi friends!! tried a new thing today.... inspired by the comments on my last post about avocado stem art! i looked it up and it IS super cool!!!!! i sorta went down a rabbit hole and learned all this stuff about weaving stems and avocados and bonsai and got super excited and decided to try something like it with some (extremely) leggy kalanchoe seedlings that I tried to start in my windowsill and then later moved under a grow light but it was too late and i still couldn't get them to branch! so! i know this is not legit bonsai (cause its a non-woody plant) but i thought it might be fun to try and i certainly enjoyed creating it!! very excited to see how she does!! 🤞🏻🌿✨ (also no worries i did NOT let noira eat any kalanchoe leaves 😅)

what is the best way to tell if your plant doesn’t have thrips anymore?

Felt like this was a good bargain to share, and winter will be here before we know it.

What does it mean if leaves are splitting like this? I love this little guy and she seems healthy otherwise aside from this.

Help! I picked this up for the sole reason of “it looks cool”. No label and the nursery had no idea. It was the only one they had. Any guesses? Or better yet any solid answer 😜

Maybe a silly question, but does anyone give their new plants a bath?
For context, my grandma just gave me two of her outside plants (Syngonium and Aglaonema) and I worry about pests upon bringing them inside. Any tips are appreciated!

Does anyone know any places that sell cheap(ish) but good quality philodendron melanochrysum?

Hi, I found this plant on the street (believe it to be a peace Lily) and I’ve repotted it but the leaves are so droopy . Any advice! I heard these were dramatic plants but I would love to bring this back to life. Currently trying sitting it in a bowl of water (not tap water) to see if it props up! Any suggestions?

Hi, I am growing some apples from seed and I wondered if anyone had any advice? (Ignore the String of Hearts I'm doing a test)

So happy with my lil plant corner. I can’t wait to fill every shelf up with all my babies I continue to buy:,)

Been trying to revive this unpotted palm I found tossed on the side of the road, but I think the roots were already too dried up because it just never absorbed any water and continued to deteriorate 😔 RIP lil thursty

Any ideas why Planta has me misting a fishbone cactus? Seems odd to me to be misting a cactus but I’m super new to this. Thanks

Please Help:
When Planta recommends multiple soil types for repotting, are you meant to mix them all or choose one?

Anyone know why these leaves at the bottom of this Zz plant are turning yellow after I bought it only a week ago? I did go ahead and water it once, but it’s been dry since then. Is it too much light, or does it just need time to adjust?

Any ZZ plant experts? This guy looks almost dead so I brought him home from the hardware store. Most of the branches are mushy but one

Amaryllis Anxiety!
October 2, 2023. Three large amaryllis bulbs in my row home yard in Philadelphia still all green leaved just waiting to come indoors to prepare for the holiday blooms.
