I currently have a Lawson False Cypress and I had to cut some stems off because they were dried up and dead. Does anyone know how long it would take for it to grow back or for new stems to grow in? I don’t want to accidentally think it’s dead and throw it out.
My Calathea is doing really well I think! Theres alot of new leaves coming in (like 8 or so) but all the older ones are a bit droopy now and not really going all the way up and down. Is this normal since its focused on the new growth?
Does anyone have any tips on keeping this little spotted begonia alive? I keep it on the Planta watering schedule and near humidifier and preferred light.. all his plant friends with similar needs are thriving but he’s just meh…is it me or him??
Oh to be a tiny plastic duck on a leaf rn.
hi!! can anyone help me identify this plant? it didn’t come with a name tag and i can’t find anything on the internet about it.
Hey everyone, I have a window ledge in my room that is 3 or 4 inches long, it is also north facing, do you guys have any recommendations?
So excited today!!!! I am going to pick up a fish tank to create a terrarium for some plants. Any suggestions on what plants I should plant in there? I need some that love humidity and don’t grow over 1ft. All help appreciated!
Hey there everyone! I was hoping someone could tell me what kind of plant this is? When I scan this plant it keeps coming up as a pothos but that doesn’t seem right. Any help would be appreciated!
PPFD Question! I am new to the plant game and am trying to figure out the best placements for my plants within my room. I have a south- and west- facing window in my bedroom. The south-facing window has another white apartment building right next to it, about 30 feet away, so I don’t believe it gets the full sun it otherwise would. However, the west-facing window is completely unobstructed. I’ve used light meters on my phone (specifically Photone) to attempt to gauge the PPFD readings in order to put my plants where they’d be the happiest, but the readings just don’t seem to add up to me and I’m so confused. When I put my phone/meter directly up to my west-facing window at the sunniest time of the day for that window (shown in second image, at 5pm), the highest reading I get is 122 umol/m^2/s, which is like ‘moderate light,’ except it’s when it’s direct sun. When I pull back even a foot from the window, it falls to ~15-20 umol/m^2/s. So for my plants that can’t handle direct sunlight, I feel I have no options as to where I can place them for adequate ‘bright, indirect light.’ Any suggestions? Is my light meter possibly off?
Does anyone know what this plant is called? It was a gift
any plant recommendations? i’ve got part sun part shade lighting and looking for some new plants. something big would be cool but anything can work!
Kind of obsessed with Alocasia’s
Got two new babies. Can’t wait to see them grow. 😊
Okay so I’ve had this guy for a couple of years now and I still haven’t been able to completely figure out what kind of Opuntia it is. This is how it has been growing in full sun, so it’s not etiolating. I’d appreciate any ideas!
I got a few air plants in this cool glass ring for my birthday! How cool would it be if we had a group dedicated to air plants and the various ways you can display them?
First photos you’ll see some buggers. What do I do? There’s like three leaves that have these along with small brown dots on the leaf. On the last photo, all the other leaves look ok. What do I do? Is this bad?? I bought this 5 days ago and these little buggers weren’t here. Haven’t watered it yet. Supposed to water it by tomorrow or so. What should I do to make sure it doesn’t get worse
Does anyone use pebbles or other decorative materials (or even hydroponics pebbles) as a top layer to cover the potting mix around their houseplants? I only use them for succulents, but I’d like to do it to the plants that have plain soil exposed—partially because I think it will minimize those annoying little flies and partially because I think it will look nicer. Or will this harm the plants in some way? Any thoughts or insights are much appreciated! 🙏
Any thoughts of what perennial my friend could plant for her north facing garden? She’s in California. She wants a pop of color around these bushes. Something either red, yellow or purple. Thank you!
I’ve had this Painter's-palette plant for a few years and I can’t get it to bloom again. Any suggestions?
