Hey guys! I’m needing advice on my baby aloe plant. I got the clipping from my plant friend and I put in in a pot with some potting soil and it is not doing well. It hasn’t grown at all since I got it a week ago and the tips are starting to turn a yellowing brown. Please help me save her thanks!!!

My sun green bonsai tree has been dying slowly for about three months now I water it when the soil becomes dry and it gets enough sunlight throughout the day. I’ve read that fertilizing it while it’s in this state is not recommended. I am out of options and I do not know what to do. Any help is very appreciated!!!

Just got my first monstera deliciosa. Any idea why this one leaf is like this?

Anybody have the back story on why Swiss cheese monsteras are also called “monkey masks?” 🤔

I accidentally snapped a Zz stem off of my plant, should I toss it or is it worth propagating? When it comes to propagating, I know you can from the leaves, or the rhizomes themselves. But my question is, can you just pop the whole stem in water?

We live in Las Vegas where the humidity is extremely low 13%, do I need to adjust our watering routine?

Hiii So I just bought a fukien bonsi tree about a month ago and all of a sudden she has lost every single leaf 😪 I’m confused because she would dry completely out within 2-3 days so I would water her maybe 2-3 times a week and now it looks very sad lol. The inside of the tree is still green so I don’t think it is completely dead but I’m not sure if I’m past the point of saving. Plz lmk if there is anything I can do to salvage her 🙏🏼

Sadly, I moved and all my old plants died (it was over 10 of them). They didn’t survive the move & slowly died all at once. I’m finally starting my plant collection back up so I wanted to show off my new beauties. 🥹💕 I also just started a garden a couple days ago & planted a mammoth elephant ear bulb, which I’m excited for it to grow. I know elephant ears can be stubborn to grow so any advice would be awesome. I currently have it in a 12 inch pot with a mix of 2 different soils - all purpose & peat moss blend. It sits in the sunniest window of my apartment but once the freeze warnings are gone, it will be moved outside. I live in Missouri so the weather here gets EXTREMELY hot & cold.

After freezing for a week on its way to me in January, my Hoya “sunrise” seemed okay. But ironically, now that it’s warm and safe, it has been slowly and sadly dying off, one or two leaves at a time. I cut off a few bits in the hope I could root them, but I wonder if it’s just done.

Plants keeps telling me to fertilize my peacock moss. What are y’all’s thoughts on this?

What’s going on with my string of bananas/dolphins…? It’s been so healthy and growing strong but now the top is basically dead.

I’m new to fertilizing my houseplants and am curious what other people do. This plant food has directions for every-time watering or a stronger “recipe” for twice a month feeding. Have you all had more success one way or the other? This is my first water cycle of feeding all my plants, so I haven’t seen positive or negative responses yet. I did the seven drops, but I’m wondering if I should go stronger. Would this be a shock to plants that have been on a water only diet?

Do y’all use the app for watering schedules and fertilizing and misting? I use to until I got some dead plants.
