She's alive!!!

I posted several times about my orchid that suffered severe root rot and only has 3 viable short roots left. She still looks dehydrated of course, but she's having a new leaf! She's alive! The media still feels humid when I dip my finger in so I'll water tomorrow probably hehe. I'm proud of her! 🥹🙏

Is the bottom of the orchid rotten?

I have this orchid which has been suffering from severe root rot and only has a few roots left. I'm just wondering if the bottom (the dark, pointy part which the roots connect to) looks rotten to you guys? I've put pictures of it dry and wet for comparison and clarity. Thanks in advance 🙏

Should I rotate this monstera cutting?

Hello! Recently, this monstera cutting had a new leaf (the one circled in red) but it's facing opposite to the light source... Should I rotate the plant? Thanks in advance!!

What's wrong with my geranium?

My geranium has weird "dry" patches on the back of most leaves, and some little white things on some leaves. Does anyone know what it could be? I thought it was because it's pretty hot where I'm in rn, but not all leaves are concerned :(

It's currently on my balcony, south exposition so plenty of light everyday. It has a ceramic olla I always keep an eye on for watering.

Also, it's juvenile and I got it in may, but still no flowers at all even though it grew vegetatively. Do you think it's related?

Thanks in advance!!

Am I doing enough?

My orchid here suffered severe root rot and has only 3 small good roots left. It kept on rotting when repoted in fresh bark/moss so... I decided to put it in a container, sitting on damp sphagnum moss. I dampen it as soon as it gets dry. But is it enough? Should I simply leave her be for the time being? I hope it gets her ventilated enough to stop the rot, but also I wonder if she gets enough water.

Is this a Haworthia?

I was gifted this succulent around 4 years ago, and Google lens tells me it's a Haworthia fasciata, but other images and video of this plant look nothing like mine? 😭

Is it a good place to put a monstera?

Hellooooo plant-loving strangers! Just wondering if it would be a good idea to put a monstera on the mini fridge here? There's a velux window just above it. Thanks in advance!!

My orchid is losing all its flowers one by one, in bloom order. Root rot?

I'm a beginner. I bought this orchid at a store in February. Three flowers were in bloom. Some roots are grey looking, others are green... I don't really know what to think or do :(
