Hi friends! Brand new plant owner here, I’ve been very invested in my plant journey and was hoping someone could help me with a bamboo question. I have always loved bamboo and recently bought three little sprigs which are currently sitting in a little water vase. The owner of the plant shop told me that this was the appropriate way to care for these little guys however I would love to be able to grow them into big and strong lucky bamboo buddies. How do I go about this? What’s the process of potting a bamboo and shaping it? When do I pot the little guys rather than keeping them in just the water? How often should I change the water until I can pot them? Do I ever pot them? I have questions haha

Great info that was shared so I’d figure I’d share it here to help people identify where you should bind the plant to a pole or whatever you decide to use

Can anyone tell me if these leaves are variegated or just stressed? I got this little lad yesterday with two full leaves like this and one partially

My two fig leaf plants have lost all their leaves since the winter does anyone know if they are just dormant and not growing because of the winter season Thank you

Hey lovelies I just got my first fiddle leaf fig from Marketplace. It looks like it has some really healthy leaves, but I know they’re temperamental so checking in here to improve my odds. 1) it kinda looks like it’s in a pot that’s too big? It looks so tiny in this huge pot - would it maybe like to be a bit more snug? 2) I see a lot of brown spots and brown veins-like on the middle newest leaf. Is this some kind of sickness? Any advice? 3) it is definitely dusty - best experience for cleaning these? Thank you!! 🙏🏻 🪴

Has anyone tried growing their alocasia in water? I’ve been reading and watching a bunch of videos using pon and leca, but im curious how well it would grow just in water and what that growing process is like. I might want to try it with one of mine this week.

Has anyone ever grown succulents before?? I found this BEAUTIFUL succulent online, looked it up and of course found myself on Etsy and saw someone was selling the seeds. Wondering if it’s any harder or easier than planting veggies (which I’ve never been overly successful with lmao)

Hi all. Planta keeps sending reminders to mist all of my plants. I understand that this may not be necessary. Any thoughts?

So everyone meet Blueberry my new Blue Baltic Pothos! I also downsized pots as well since all of these guys like to be snug! I mixed the indoor mix with orchid bark and perlite to make my own tropical mix! Let’s hope root rot is not a problem for me anymore!
