Any ZZ plant experts? This guy looks almost dead so I brought him home from the hardware store. Most of the branches are mushy but one

Amaryllis Anxiety! October 2, 2023. Three large amaryllis bulbs in my row home yard in Philadelphia still all green leaved just waiting to come indoors to prepare for the holiday blooms.

Is this a good place to have a propagation wall? Light usually reflects well onto here but at the moment it is super cloudy, which it usually is not.

Has anyone else ever had a Wax Begonia re-appear from the previous year? I bought a small three pack, maybe a 6 pack, of Wax Begonia sprouts in Spring of 2022 and I also bought one small Hosta. I placed the Hosta into the large, silly, my generations version of a pet rock, tipped on its side terra cotta pot. I also placed at least 2 of the Wax Begonia i to this pot. Through out the summer 2022 season the Wax Begonia exploded. It over shadowed the Hosta. Then Fall 2022 arrived and the Wax Begonia in all pots died. I pulled out the Wax Begonia from the pots and wished the Hosta good luck for the upcoming winter months. In the Philadelphia area it got dark like normal in Winter and never got winter cold. Even fig trees that i placed in the cold dark basement never hibernated. They just kept growing. Fast forward to July 2033 and two Wax Begonia plant shoots began to appear in the tip over pot along with the tiny Hosta. And today October 2, 2023 the Wax Begonia continues to grow and flower. Has this rebirth of the red flowering Wax Begonia happened to others in the past?

Hi! I'm just gonna come out and state the fact of the matter; my plants need more sun. I need a tall, sturdy end table that a great Dane couldn't meddle with to put right in front is my window, stat! Does anyone have any success with this or any recommendations? Anything would be appreciated!

FOUR leaves!!!!!! and a new one coming in!!! she is a little leggy because i had her on the kitchen windowsill for a while when she was just a wee shoot and then i realized she was gettin taller without putting out any leaves so i thought she must not have enough light and moved her upstairs under my grow light where she is doing great!!!! 🌱🥑🥰

Hi plant friends, I recently repotted my large white bird of paradise. It’s been curled up and the lower parts of the plant are prune-y. The leaves are leaning instead of standing up stiffly. I just gave it a big drink of water (I have been barely watering it because I’ve been plagued by fungus gnats in the past…). Hopefully the water makes it bounce back. Any other tips? 🪴💚

I bought this baby from my job for only $5! This is my first calathea & I'm nervous bc I've heard they're divas but nonetheless I'm so excited she's here! Any advice for helping her thrive in my home would be highly appreciated! Also if any of you know what this discoloration is that would be helpful. Thank you! **update** I repot her as soon as I got home & I noticed some tiny webbing! She has spider mites 🥲 fortunately for me I invested in some neem oil.

Does anyone know if you can put tape on a plant leaf that ripped while unfurling?

What does it mean when an elephant ear starts blooming? Side note: I don’t like how it looks.

Can Anyone Tell Me How To Keep Gnats Away From My Plants? I Noticed Them A Lot On My Marigolds. I Do Spray Zevo Because It’s All Natural To Keep The Other Bugs That Are Unwanted Away Especially The Palmetto Bugs & It Works But Them Gnats Are Something Else.

Here’s a better look at my children under the grow light! I moved my littler monstera here so it can get some extra light.
