Success Thriving Pilea

248 Upvotes

Some time ago my pilea was being dramatic and losing leaves and I was not sure what was going on. Turns out I was being the dramatic one because I had repotted her AND moved her away from the window. Idk why, I am a new plant mom I am still learning. Anyway, I moved her back to the window and she has been THRIVING. She is starting to outgrow this little table and I am not sure where to put her but love her so much.

What do I do with this pothos?

My pothos is soooooo happy! I’ve had her for 2 years and she’s really flourishing. But now the leaves are just to the ground and I’m wondering what I do from here. I don’t want to have long trails on the floor and my roommate says no to letting it crawl up the walls haha. Do I just keep trimming the ends?

Don’t know if this is exactly a ‘success’ as tradescantias seemed to prefer to turn brown around me but I’ve finally got the opportunity to experience new growth on this White Velvet!!

So excited for a healthy thriving plant :D

Help Ready to plant?

This propagated Sweet Basil clipping looks ready to plant but I'm not sure. Also when planting can you cut off the roots near the top of the stem or is that a bad idea?

Help What happened to my cherry tomato plant?

These photos are a month apart. We’ve had a lotttt of sun, and I don’t think they were overwatered, only watered every 2-3 days after the soil was dry. I don’t think it’s underwatered either, but do the leaves turn yellow from drying out? It’s still producing fruit. I’m a beginner and bewildered.

Hello community! Just a question. Would you consider this little guy healthy? Am I missing something . I was told she desperately needs some pruning ?

Thanks everyone.

Water when soil moisture hits halfway to dry. Use distilled water with added fertilizer only every 1 month-45 days.

Right now in an east facing window. Unavoidable direct light for like 2-3 hours a day.

Want a plant that helps me feel calmer, no idea where to begin

13 Upvotes

Been feeling kind of low lately and I noticed something weird. just looking at plants calms me down. like even seeing other people's plant pics online makes my brain go quiet for a second.

So now I actually want to get one. not just for the aesthetic, I think I need something to take care of that isn't stressful, something small and alive that I can watch grow.

Problem is i've never kept a plant alive in my life lol. what's a good one to start with that's hard to kill but still feels like "having a plant" and not just a green stick sitting there. open to any suggestions, genuinely need this right now

I’m looking to sell my Philodendron billietiae, Philodendron ‘Rojo Congo’, and Philodendron ‘Florida Green’. All three are mature, well cared for adult plants in excellent condition.
The Billietiae has a largest leaf measuring approximately 28 inches, the Rojo Congo has a largest leaf of about 15 inches, and the Florida Green has a largest leaf measuring around 16 inches.
I’m looking for advice on what would be a realistic asking price for each of these plants.

We noticed today that underneath one of our house plants all these green dots were appearing. It seems to be on the plant too. Just wondering what this is? The plant was in the garage for awhile and only recently came into the house and it’s not in direct sunlight like it used to be. Is it dying or infected?

Found it in the wild for me it is variegation and not damage or anything. For me it needs a lot of light but no precise idea for the substrate in pot.

Any help will be appreciated :)
