Will coffee grounds hurt my hydrangea?

Melanie

I'm running out of room. Can someone who is bored please go through my plants and find a hanging one or one I can hang, that can take low light? I have a hanger in the bathroom but its about 6 ft away from a west facing window. Most of my hanging plants have veragation and I kind don't want to lose that.

Just wanted to share my favorite zz plant hack! To propagate a zz plant and make a lot of props: 1. Cut a bunch of leaves at the stem of the leaf. (I like to cut on different stems so it doesn’t look bare on one) 2. Grab an old pool noodle, and chop it. Then cut slots in the noodle. 3. Place the leaves bottom down in the slots in a bowl of water.

New and seeking advice for plant care.(: When needing to water, fertilize, mist, and clean leaves (going to use water, neem oil, peppermint castille soap, and alcohol mixture) what would be the best order? I’m thinking 1. Water (adding the liquid fertilizer) 2. Clean leaves with spray mixture then wipe down 3. Mist?

For anyone that has experience with ornamental sweet potato plants. 1) is this an ornamental sweet potato plant? 2)it’s growing rapidly/seems healthy but I’ve noticed that the bigger/oldest leaves now have tiny holes (pictured). I haven’t found any bugs - what could it be and is harmful? 3) it started out as a 6 inch plan, now it’s about 2 feet in a month. The roots are coming out of the bottom, is it time to repot and if so, what size pot should I use? I’ve already bought a trellis to kind of wrap it around. 4) will It actually produce sweet potatoes? 5) best way to propogate? Any other information that can be provided about the care of this plant would be greatly appreciated. It’s absolutely beautiful. I just want to know how to take care of it as I have no experience.

Relatively new plant parent. I currently do not have any bugs. But should I proactively spray every new plant I bring in? I don’t really want to wait until I see them. I’d rather keep them away from the get go. Also, what are your tried and true insecticides? I’m horrified at the thought of some wackadoodle insect outbreak.

Help! I got a pink ficus a few weeks ago and I think she is dying. I tried top watering first and then bottom watering, but the top soil seems dry still. She has quite a few leaves that are browning, but has sprouted some new ones. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

What would be the best indoor floor plant?

I’ve created a discrete location to “sun bath” my plants that require part sun and are in less desirable locations. Is it okay to shuffle plants back and forth into grow light environments and back to part-sun/shad? Fiddle leaf fig, cactus in picture.

This guy has been planted for almost 3 months and NO CHANGE! The plant I separated him from is still doing well, and this one still looks healthy but no growth. When I repotted he was just another growth with roots already intact. Any suggestions - I follow Planta guidelines on watering.

I have a pretty wimpy fiddle fig. She seems to only want to be top heavy. What can I do so that she can become a lot fuller?

Help. I think this plant was in too strong of sun. I've moved it Also I was watering with tap water , I've stopped doing that. My question is should I trim off the brown edges or leave it alone?

How long do avocado trees live? Google has a variety of numbers.

My once completely purple plant (see bottom leaves) is now growing rapidly, but also producing more of the green striped/silver look. How do I get it back to that lush purple color? Why is it growing in a totally different color? This is my first time with this plant.
