Hi guys! I need some names for my new babies! I really like relating my plants name to the actual plant. For example, my “elephant ear” alocasia is named Dumbo and my money tree is name Penny. But for these two I can’t think of anything & I need help!!

For anyone dealing with spider mites, scale, or mealy bugs. This is THE video on how to eradicate them organically. This was the only method that helped me get rid of them completely.

I just bought a polka dot plant cutting two days ago (hypoestes phyllostachya) and I didn’t know it needed humidity to really thrive but am unsure as to how I create humidity for it? Does anyone have any tips? Does it actually need humidity?

Would anyone tell me how often I should water my Venus Fly Trap? I just watered it yesterday and I read somewhere that the soil should remain moist. So is that like everyday? What should I do? TIA! 🪴

Hi! I’m a relatively new plant mom, so I need some advice… should I cut off my pepperomia’s spikes to encourage more leaf growth, or should I just leave them be and let them fall off themselves? She only had like 3 spikes when I got her earlier this month (first pic), but now she has at least 10, and I’m not sure if this will hinder her leaf growth.

Hi, I just got this Ficus or Rubber Plant. Is this long stem without any leaves normal? Any care tips?

Hi! Im trying to figure out what the hell is my humidity like : i live in a basement, all my plant’s soil takes forever to dry and has mold sometimes but my monstera’s leaf and my dieffenbachia tikki show signs of lack of humidity (curling and brown edges). I bought a humidifiers but im scared it will make the soil even more moist/humid. 🙃🙃🙃 cant buy a humidity meter cause I have a budget

I have had this coffee plant for almost five years, and it’s positioned in a bay window that receives afternoon sun. My question is: why is the stem so skinny? I currently use sticks for support. I have trimmed the plant before to encourage growth, but it continues to produce many leaves and grow in height while the stem remains thin. Is this normal for this type of plant, or do you have any advice to help with this issue?

Someone gave me this cutting. Where do I go from here? It's a Philodendron Florida Beauty. I am not familiar with this plant but would like to make sure it grows and stays healthy. Should I put it in soil? Advice please. TIA!
