Hi all, i was gifted this peace lily, well more given as a last hope to keep it alive. Before it was given to me they had left it in their car all day where im assuming it got burnt or something. I took it in maybe two weeks ago and since then ive seen 5 new blooms! i trimmed the black leaves off. should i do anything else with her?
Update on the fern…. It has been slowly dying until it got to this point what now lol
I just bought this baby bamboo from Petco today. I want to transfer him into a pot and I'm a bit nervous about doing so. I know it'll be a lengthy process and I'll have to add a little soil every few days to adapt him but I'm still very nervous, how should I go about this?
Hey can anyone tell me if I should completely cut back my string of hearts? I gave a little cut to get rid of leggy stems but now I’m realising there’s wrinkles and loss of colour at the top (not variegated). I moved to a different location with better light and repotted into new compost but unsure whether to do a big chop
Is my Diffenbachia getting too much light? It sits in the south facing corner of a room full of windows. It gets a bit of direct sunlight in the morning then bright indirect light the rest of the day. I noticed this morning that a couple of the leaves have grown big green patches seemingly overnight. It has been lightly dappled up to this point.
I got this plants yesterday at the farmers market and didn’t think to ask what kind of succulent it is. When I go to identify it says it’s an African Milk Tree but it doesn’t have the 3 columns like one normally would. It does produce the milky latex, though. I was wondering if anyone could confirm or deny its identity for me
hi everyone this is my monstera, ive had him for a few months now and noticed no growth/changes whatsoever... its somewhat worrying me im a new plant owner, hes my first, any tips would be appreciated
This is my little corner and it’s very cozy. All the plants except the pothos are new in the last month. I’m having a lot of fun learning about them and endlessly fiddling and rearranging them! I would have more but I’m learning there’s a settling in process. I wonder how it will look in a year.
my succulents leaves keep falling off and i don’t know what i’m doing wrong, does anyone know how to prevent this?
Hi everyone! I've reconfigured my "office" (=corner of my living room) to surround myself with green space. It feels really nice to sit here surrounded by green things! I really appreciate everyone who made suggestions for how to improve the space, it was so helpful.
Will my vibes climb this pink wood
Made a cute little grow area above my cabinet tonight! ☺️🌿 A Hoya, a couple Alocasias, and a Pothos!
My begonia keeps losing leaves idk what’s going on with it. Any tips ?
Got a couple of asiatic lilies that recently started blooming, but I’ve got them in some raised beds near my front door and the blooms are attracting ants. Does anyone have any recommendations for what I should treat the ants with that won’t damage the flowers? TIA! 😊
What should I do about these dead(?) leaves on my aloe plant? Should I just leave them there or should I try and pluck them off?
Just got a new baby 🥹😍😍

How do you water an air plant?
This just popped up overnight in my dill plants. Any ideas as to what it is?
I have a question about bottom watering and also using a humidifier. I primarily have peperomia plants and started bottom watering them. I have been filling a dish washing bin with about 2 inches of water and placing them in it. All of the pots have drainage holes. From what I’ve read it was recommended to leave them in the water for about a half hour. When I leave them in for that long the top two inches of soil are still dry. Should I just leave them in longer? Do I wait until the top of the soil feels moist? Am I doing something wrong? Also, are there any indoor plants that shouldn’t be bottom watered? I ordered a humidifier that is supposed to arrive today from Amazon. I was going to put it on one of the shelves of my plant shelving unit. (Pictured). Does it need to be a specific distance from the all my plants? I was concerned if I put it on a shelf it would be too close to the plants. This shelf is near my bed, too, so it would be helpful for me.
