My Catnip Won’t Quit

Planted some catnip seeds on my balcony 23 years ago. Nobody within a 5 mile radius will ever need to plant catnip again, forever.

Orchid with no leaves continues to grow its roots. What should i do?

I had this orchid for a few years now and this year its health started to decline and lost all the leaves to what I assume was a fungal infection caused by a pigeon nest.I assumed it was done for, but the roots have continued to grow months after and I want to encourage leaf growth, but I'm not sure how to proceed. Has anyone seen this happen before? The orchid is a purple phaleionopsis.

Mom’s funeral peace lily fell… help!

Hi all, a little shelf (that was installed before I moved into my house) fell off the wall randomly tonight. Crashing down with it came my little peace lily, which I nurtured as a baby from my sister’s mother plant — that came from our mom’s funeral. It’s taken a few years (like…10?), but it had been flowering yearly and started growing its own babies in the past couple years. I really want this plant to survive this accident… it feels like a piece of my mom! What should I do tonight and/or tomorrow, when I can go get supplies? I have a small plant pot and about 4 cups of miracle gro houseplant soil that I could use tonight (plus whatever you’d find in a normal kitchen ,e.g. bowls etc). Pics of my poor plant. Be kind please, I’m not really in a space for negative commentary. 💕 thank you! 🥺

I have a sunflower growing in the crack of my patio

Likely from the bird seed that I put out which ends up scattered everywhere!
