What are these bugs???? And how can I get rid of them?They can fly and they are ALL OVER my plants. I tried using different oils in a spray bottle and drenched my plants, but that obviously didn’t help. I have to brush them off every day but they always come back within an hour or so. They’re driving me crazy!

Could someone help me with my plant? She’s a elephant ear I got from my aunts backyard and I put her in a drain pot about a week ago and after two days the leaves started turning brown, she was kept inside so I put her outside where the sun mainly hits and this is her now

I just bought this variegated string of pearls and I need help saving it/making it grow. It’s so small so I’m scared that I’m going to kill it entirely, can anyone give me some advice?

Anybody have tips on caring for Black Magic Colocasia’s ? I’ve had trouble keeping them alive in the past but they’re my favorite plant ! 😢 right now she is acclimating to the temp of the house so she’s sitting in front of a window close to the door to outside -so it’s not too cold for her too fast . There is A.C in the room I’m eventually keeping her in and I don’t want to shock her . I brought her home yesterday and she is still in a nursery pot and placed inside terracotta - which I PROMISE I will be cleaning asap!! Lol. I water every 5th day as of right now . Let me know your thoughts , thanks!! I’m going to clean the leaves as well don’t worry :)

Is it time for a bigger pot? Or do I just let this guy keep popping out new shoots?

I’m reading from other plant sites that misting isn’t necessary and in fact can cause some stress on plants (better to have consistent humidity than periodic). But this app has a misting schedule. Not sure what to do.

How do you know when it’s time for a bigger pot?

Hi! Does anyone know how to take care of these two plants or any tips? I believe the left one is a ficus ruby and the right one is a Audrey ficus! Comment some tips or tricks. Also I believe the black to the left may be sick since it’s supposed to be more of a red color.

I bought this unlabeled plant at Lowe’s and I can’t figure out what it is! Planta keeps saying it’s a pothos but I’m not convinced. Any ideas?! The leaves are a bit thicker and more textured than any of my pothos plants.

Currently sitting in the living room surrounded by plants because 25mph gusts just tore through out of nowhere and I had to scramble to move 50ish potted plants in from the porch 🙃 Whew that was crazy! I’m glad I was sitting on the porch when it started or else I might have gotten clued in by shattering pots instead!

This is my jade plant. Is there growth about to happen in the middle at the very top?

What’s the ideal plant to grow in a pot like this that gets mostly only indirect sunlight? Tried a few and they keep dying on us

So I did a thing. Not sure if cooked, ate, or flopped but, my pothos plants has been getting brown tips on a few leaves and I assumed it was due to it not being humid enough, my room is quite dry. I’ve been thinking and brainstorming of a way to help it be a bit more humid without having to get a humidifier quite yet. I’ve been sitting on a few ideas for a couple days when today I was cleaning and it hit me. I’ve got these two empty clear containers just having taking up space maybe I could make an impromptu greenhouse for my plants. I moved some things around and I think this might work. Sprayed some water on the inside and adjusted my grow lights. What do yall think? Yay or nay?

Any thoughts on what’s going on with my newly potted ZZ ? I pulled this one from my larger ZZ ~5 days ago and the bases of the stem have rotted and detached from the rhizome. I’m going to propagate the broken stems, but can I try to replant the rhizome? My guess is that I replanted it in soil that didn’t have enough drainage.

Hi there! New here! Can anyone help me correctly identify this plant? It was a gift and there’s nothing on the label it comes with. I’ve googled just based off what I see and it looks to be a Calathea. Can anyone assist?
