I recently received this as a gift, I’ve placed it in a place that gets indirect bright light (7-8 hours through a sliding door) also the room stays bright (east facing in South Africa)

I’ve read they do not like to be in low humidity zones, so I was wondering should I mist her when her leaves dry out ? I’m also waiting for the first 5cm of soil to dry (1-2 inches for ya imperial buggers!)

Any tips would be appreciated, thanks!

Hello All, Thanks in advance for reading the post.
I bought this peace lily from TJ, and it was in 6inch pot badly root bounded ( it needed water every 2/3 days ) so I did some research and planned to repot it in slightly bigger (8inch) pot. I did cut few roots horizontally so that it can find new space in new soil. I repotted last Thursday, thoroughly watered, no harsh light near humidifier. After that it started wilting, yellowing leaves ( i take deep breath and thought it will recover just in a shock as it is drama queen of plant world) but still not a single leave has recovered! Not I am getting anxious, did I kill it? If any hopes- How can I recover it? Can you guys help
Please??

Radical cutback , i feel like a murderer !

This was the plant my grandfather gave to my grandmother before he passed away, now more than 40 years ago. I now inherited the plant, but it’s not doing good at all and it breaks my heart. It was THRIVING before! All those kind of bug things are everywhere on every leaf and stem, though they are not moving. All the leaves are turning fully brown and are falling off. I do have to say the plant has been in this same pot for a long long time, but I think the bugs/dots are what’s causing it to die.

Can someone please help me and tell me what they are and what to do. It would break my heart if this plant would die. It is the most important thing that I inherited. Thank you!

Since I started my job as a therapist, my favorite part of creating my office space has been starting my plant dad journey… the collection and plant growth have come a long way in a year!

Currently focus is maximizing growth in my Tradescantia Nanouk. I’ve actually trimmed and repotted the long stems since this photo.

Yes, the AC units are an eyesore, but me and my clients don’t really see them because we’re sitting down and talking!

My satin pothos plant seems to be a little stressed and I was hoping I could get some advice. I water it once every other week when it’s super dry, and it gets lots of indirect light from my east facing window. It’s looked this sparse for a couple months and I thought changing the positioning would help. Is the pot too big?

She mentioned it had some sun damage and she had a bunch of them. The leaf is still uncurling and stem seems pretty solid. I want to make it an indoor plant, but have never had one of these before.

Thoughts on if it will be okay and any tips on it being inside are appreciated :)

I never realized how easy and fast growing this monstera type is, that it began attaching itself and climbing my walls! (I'm ok with this)

I have several smaller starter plants going and wanted to see what creative ways anyone else has to maintain them!

Hi everybody,

I need some tips and suggestions on how to proceed with my dracaena: you can see she is not doing well (pic 2), I basically had to cut and propagate in water (pic 3) one of the 2 branches because it was drying up basically, and it seems like the same is slowly happening to the other one. However (pic 1) you can see that a new little plant is emerging from the soil, I was speechless when I saw it a few days ago!

My question(s) is: is it normal for new plants to come out of the soil like this? And what could be possibly be happening to the plant that the "old" plant is dying but a new one is emerging? Do you also suggest cutting the other branch? And do you suggest propagating in water or in the soil?

many thanks to whoever will read and answer! 😄

I had this plant for a while and I guess I noticed those spots after some time and I did question it but I never thought to look it up and thought maybe that’s apart of the neon pink syngonium look and until I had Alocasia that had spider mites so I started looking at my plants more and I looked under the leaf and realized I think I might have had spider mites that spread from here to my alocisia and other sygoniums and now I see the mites very lightly on my dieffenbachia and I’m starting to worry and I’m not sure what to do. I heard about neem oil spray but I know some are unsafe so I just wanted to come here and ask if anyone has some advice to get rid of spidermites or what this even is? Thanks everyone
