My Maranta prayer plant is blooming!! How pretty! I think my baby fishbone prayer plant is going to bloom as well! And look at these little mushrooms that grow in the soil I bought. They grow and die in one day. Plants are so fun. The surprises you find!

Hi! I recently got a purple passion plant and am wondering on how to increase humidity without a humidifier. Would having it in decorative pot with a little bit of water sitting in it help? 😅

Help‼️‼️ So I am wanting to buy things for my house plants but don’t know what to get for them that will help them just in general. If you could help me that would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hey! Ive had this raspberry flame violet (pls correct me if I’m wrong) for a couple months now. It started off very thin and not much foliage but I’ve noticed the last couple weeks it’s nearly tripled in leaf count. I’m curious if anyone knows when this plant blooms flowers. Given the recent growth I’d want to estimated it probably will by summer (maybe 2-4 months from now?). Also any tips for health or how to help this flower would be really appreciated.

She still is turning yellow but also new shoots. So confused what’s happening?! I only water her with my fish tank water…….help! I don’t want to kill her

Can anyone help. I have sugar ants all over my plants they don’t seem focused on them yet they’re more trying to get to my dog’s food. But I just don’t want them to harm my plants. What’s a good non/ low pesticidal way to get rid of them. (I have no idea where they are coming from) I am mostly concerned about my hibiscus flowers.

Hello! How often do you guys water your inch plants? I haven’t had mine very long and a few days after I watered it, some leaves looked overwatered and I keep snoozing Planta’s reminder for it. About half of the soil is still wet. Thank you for your help!
