Hi, new plant enthusiast here — any advice for indoor plants who don’t require lots of direct sunlight? I live in Ireland and our sunny days are few and far between but I don’t want to rely on a grow light as electric is dear.

I was gifted this lovely plant, but what I didn't realize before my husband brought it home, it had been taken out of it's planter placed into a trash bag to keep the soil contained, and then placed in a box. I temporarily have it sitting in/on soil in a large planter but wanted to ask how best to take care of this beauty. Should I cut any of it back? Separate any of it? I want to give it a healthy home so it can thrive, but I am new to taking care of plants in general and also have never had one of these plants. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

What do you guys use for indoor greenhouses for your higher humidity plants? I’m looking into getting one but nothing too expensive lol

I've got a missionary plant that's been sickly for months and I can't figure out what's going on. Any ideas or suggestions?

My Angel Wing has a new leaf on the way coming from the largest leaf which looks a little rough - should I trim that leaf off so the plant can put energy into the new growth or give it some more time to grow before trimming? TIA! ☺️🪴

What’s everyone’s favorite plant tips and tricks they want to share? Doesn’t have to be about anything specific. Just a neat thing you’ve learned along your plant journey that’s helped you a lot! Could be a specific item that you swear by! I think everyone by now knows mine is hydrogen peroxide waterings or banana peel water haha

Hi everybody, I’m looking forward to getting a chunk of common knowledge sent my way today😉 This String of Hearts was on a journey to be repotted. (FYI I am a novice in the plant world) note the whitish round bulb immediately south of the last leaf. What the heck is that thing? Do I need to consult a plastic surgeon? Help a girl out. Thanks!

Can I start a new plant with just the leaf? I know some begonias do but didn't know if I could with this little guy.

Just rescued this little guy from a friend and it's not doing very well so I'm going to replant it and trim of any dead roots and leave. Would love to know what it is and the best soil and I will get a smaller pot for it once I take it out and see what size his roots are. There is 2 places on the second picture that look like new leaves are coming but I'm not sure. Thanks for any help

The rumors are true! After hearing that Walmart was carrying Thai constellations I decided to see for myself and was not disappointed. The plants were definitely not in peak condition but the prices were too good to ignore. Spotted this Alocasia, some nice ring of fire philodendrons, begonias, and more.

Should I be worried my pink quill is losing the pink?

Just bought this snake plant and was wondering why it was cut in half? Also should it have indirect sunlight or is this fine?

Hi guys, My mum picked this up today for free from Facebook and wondering what we should be doing, it needs repotting desperately with a a more chunkier soil, but the limp leaves I’m not sure what to do whether those leaves are saveable? What’s the best option for it?

I am going to combine three midsize Monstera’s into a large pot. It’s the perfect size around, but it’s too deep, what can I use to fill the bottom of the pot?
