I recently saw a few different people saying that Alocasias thrive being planted in water. And since plants in water are way easier, I was like lemme give it a try! I planted this in water two weeks ago and there is ALREADY the tiniest little new growth 🄹🄹🄹 PUMPED.

I’m going on a trip, I leave Sunday and I will be back four days later. Does anybody have any tips/recommendations for my plants? I don’t feel it’s necessary to get a plant sitter, since I’m only gone for a little bit, but my plans have been thriving, and I don’t want to cause any harm to them. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!!

I’ve got some new plants for my room 1. Variegated white princess philodendron 2. pink princess philodendron 3. Aglaonema siam aurora Any soil, lighting, and watering tips would be very much appreciated as these are my first variegated plants. I am completely in the dark about how to take care of the siam aurora (Chinese evergreen) and I’m in love with it.

My succulent is dead that has one thriving leaf. Should I takeoff that leaf and leave it in the soil? Or is there something else I could do or should I just put it in my graveyard?

These photos were taken almost two weeks apart to show progress of my peperomia frost plant - is this a flower shooting up in the center? Is there anything I should be doing differently?

Hello, I have a creeping phlox that lives in my balcony. Ever since the heat wave it started wilting, and then this strange leaf appeared…does anyone know what it is? Could it be a weed?

How long a day should plants be under a grow light? I have plants that aren’t getting enough direct sunlight so I got a grow light, but I’m not sure how long they need grow light for.

Today I learned Lily’s has ā€œ Lime sensitivityā€. However, I continued to water my baby with tap water thinking the issue was the rainā€¦šŸ˜’šŸ„“ (I had it backwards). Moving forward I will boil my water, purchase steal water or allow the good old rain to shower her šŸ™Œ #lesson_learned
