Oh. MY GOD. Holy Root Cake!

I’ve kept this pothos in my shower for the past year and the bottom few leaves finally started to yellow and fall off. I’ve had it for the past 3 years and never thought to repot it caus it’s ALWAYS been really good about putting out leaves. I’ve never seen anything like this IRL, nor did I think I was harboring this MONSTER. Not a spec of rot either! Mind blowing! All re-potted and safe now!

First time owning a Money Plant, help!

This is my first time owning a money plant. I do not know much on its plant care. Any advice on how to keep it healthy and alive? Specifically watering habits and sun routines.

Some details-
I want to keep the plant indoors (in my bedroom).
I do not get any direct sunlight in there (and very less indirect sunlight) but I can keep it outdoors in the balcony or in the living room for a few hours if that is recommended.

I want to maintain it at this size itself as it will be on my bedside table.

What is this and how do I help it survive?

So my dad gave me this plant (he thought it was a peperomia but it looks more like a nerve plant to me) and it was incredibly waterlogged and unhappy and I repotted it this morning (this is it in its new pot) i watered it right after replanting and I am sure that this is transplant shock but I want to know what I can do to help prevent it from completely dying. I live in west Texas and I have it placed on top of my hutch about 5 feet from western facing windows so it doesn’t have direct sunlight but it is definitely lots of bright indirect sunlight. Do I put a humidity dome on it or do I let it dry out?? I used my compost mix soil that I’ve used for nearly every plant I’ve ever had and has always worked well for me.

Thanks

What is this?

This showed up in two of our raised beds. Is it a plant or a weed?

Should I clump my plants by thirst while I’m on vacation?

Hey group. I’m going away for about 10-14 days. My live in bf claims to love my plants but he’s never taken a real interest. So I’m super nervous about going away. I’ll be devastated if I lost a plant.

I’m wondering if I should clump plants by thirst levels. Like my ficus’ and succulents my tradescantia could survive on 1-2 waterings. But my fittonia and croton for example wilt as soon as they are thirsty.

To make it easier, I’m thinking about just rearranging and clumping plants together to make it easier for him. I have sustee sticks but I also like to use my water meter. I have close to 60 plants but they’re small ish plants. A lot are still in 4” pots.

What would u do?!

Sad plant

My plant just looks so wimpy. Any help is appreciated.

Plant is inside near multiple large south-facing windows during all hours of the day. We get 14 hours of light.

I water it when the soil is dry.

I tried to propagate but I failed and this is what I am left with.

Should I chop & prop my white night or just let it get taller? Should they be bushy?

Bugs on my impatiens

I’ve planted these flowers in multiple pots around my yard but only the 3 pots on my deck have these little bugs all over them. What are they and how do I get rid of them?

What is this plant and what to do with it?

My mum and I moved this plant to our bathroom like 3 years ago and we literally don't water it and it's been thriving off of the humidiry ever since. It's uncontrollable. It never stops growing. Since it's so tall now we don't really know what to do with it. Is propagation recommended? Will that make a fuller plant? Or should we maybe wrap it around something?

Feverfew or Camomile

I've had these flowers for decades in my gardens. It's always nice to have little white flowers to add to bouquets. I know they're not Baby's breath. When I Google lens them they ALL come under the Feverfew family. So do I have both White Star” and “White Bonnet” is a fully double?

Customized Rose of Sharon "Bush"

I kept "pulling" what I thought was a weed for years. Finally I gave in & let it grow (before the Internet years). Then it bloomed one year & I recognized it as a rose of sharon. My husband doesn't want "big trees" planted near the house, so I decided to twist the branches around each other & keep it trimmed up. I once saw this done with a lilac before. I'll post more pics when it's in bloom.
