Hi all! New Monstera leaf has a few black spots along the edge. None of the other leaves do. No signs of thrips or pests.
The soil is Premium Monstera Mix from Rooting For You (usually exceptional quality), but it seems to retain moisture much longer than the Planta app expects - I'm only watering every two weeks as it takes that long to feel any dryness in the top inch or two. A couple weeks ago a couple small mushrooms sprouted up (a sign of over watering?).
I figure it's a watering issue....any advice is much appreciated!

When I bought this about a year ago it had huge leaves. They all fell off. The new ones have grown but have stayed small. What should I do?

Went on a week long vacation and came back to all the leaves on my begonia fallen off 💔 I left a water globe and was hoping that’d be enough but sadly it wasn’t. Is there any chance of bringing it back to life? Added an image of its before. Would appreciate tips please!! New plant owner too ):

I finally put her on a moss pole 🫠 I’m terrified I’ll lose this propagation but I’m trying. Also I know the location of the spine dont you worry! And I’m pretty sure the leaves will turn towards the sun themselves after repotting. But here we are for now.

What plant milestone did you hit this week!? New leaf, bloom, root growth? 💚

Is this a flower? I've never had a plant which has produced a flower before, and I've read for this kind of plant it's better to cut it off as soon as you notice one - I'm not sure though, and if this is just a big leaf I'd like to let it continue growing.
If it IS a flower, is it better to cut it off? Is it too soon to do so? She's in a new place in a new house, so I worry about any big changes or un-needed cuts
Any advice appreciated, thank you!

Hello everyone, I hope all is well. A few months ago I was gifted an olive bonsai. It spent the summer being really healthy and growing a ton. At the end of the summer and past few weeks, it has dried up, the green of the leaves has darkened, and the leaves are curled up. I am not sure whether I am over watering or doing something else wrong, are there any tips to help diagnose the issue and save my plant? For additional context it faces west and is placed right beside a window.

A little garden-centre treasure hunt today 🌿✨
I popped in for a wander and, of course, couldn’t resist bringing home some beautiful beauties! 🌸🪴😍
I’ll be sharing what I picked up in another post… but for now, here’s a little glimpse from the garden centre. 🌱💚
Can you guess what I brought home? 👀🌺

Does he look happy? Recently gifted this plant and I’m seeing new growth but want to make sure I am taking best care of it… I wasn’t sure it this amount of “droop” is normal :)

My Dracaena has become super leggy but there is so much fresh growth at the top. Can I cut off the bottom bare trunks and re plant the top portions?

Should I leave yellow/brown leafs on and wait for them to fall or cut them off ?

Hiya, I’m interested in ideas for displaying plants because I have a small corner free, and we all know it needs plants in it. I have tall ceilings, so the display would need to be high not wide.
This is what I’m working with, any ideas would be greatly appreciated ☺️

Hey everybody! Does anyone have good recommendations for where to buy orchid bark? I really want to make sure it’s quality, doesn’t come with any bugs, that kind of thing. Any places that are known for quality? I feel like Amazon isn’t reliable, but I’ve never tried to buy something like this from them so I’m not sure. Any tips appreciated!
