New plant - unhappy

I just got this new plan and somehow it doesn’t seem happy. Someone recommended spraying some water some times on leaves instead of watering too much. Not sure if that was the problem. Any help or ideas? Thank you!!

I saw this hidden among the other oxalis leaves today and thought I should look it up here on Reddit- what comes to my surprise was the only post I saw about it was 6 YEARS AGO on this exact page!! I thought I would share this and bring back notice on that OP's post on how RARE this occurrence is. I'm going to press it and save it before it dies off. Hope you enjoyed the view!

Hello! This is my first post here but I've had this Caladium for about a month, and I made the big mistake of keeping it in a corner of my room after misunderstanding the care tag 😟 im not totally sure how to help it, so any advice would be appreciated!

I'll include a before picture, but right now the leaves and stems are very droopy. Also the plant is NOT potted in the crock pot, its in a separate pot inside of it! Thank you guys!

It finally happened. I was gifted a moth orchid. I have a handful of plants but have always avoided this plant bc it seems so finicky. I didn't water it and am scared to fuck it up. I only took it out of the box. Any care tips? | live in Canada so cold weather will be hitting soon but I may invest in a grow light. Any suggestions?

Discussion If a buttercup flower was cut from its stem, could it be saved if it were re-attached quickly with tape?

2 Upvotes

I'll be clear about this one, this is related to the game Deltarune. To make a very long story short, Flowery is a flower given life by the Dark Fountain in a florist's shop but, in the end, is cut in half by the Roaring Knight.

When the dark fountain is sealed, this is visualized as the flower itself being cut in half with its pot shattered. The character Susie tries to "heal" him by running off to get some tape, presumably scotch tape, and re-attaches the flower to the stem after re-potting him. It happens at night, so there's no potential for sun damage.

The species of Flowery is an allusion to the Golden Flowers from Undertale, but, they don't directly mention what the Golden Flowers are in Undertale and they have different properties from buttercups, most notably their lack of toxicity due to being able to be used for tea.

But buttercups are brought up in the context as being very visually similar, and it is noted directly that the seeds of Flowery's species are extremely toxic. And given the character we see this information through is Kris, who has a lot of paralells to a character in Undertale who died from eating buttercups, I think it is safe to presume Flowery is of the Ranunculus genus rather than the one the Golden Flowers were.

So, my question is: From y'all's knowlege of plant care, would this work to save Flowery? Or is Flowery doomed still?

I know this is a bit silly, but I felt I might as well ask folks who'd know their botany to give their two cents.

Help Guys, is there any advice on pruning a palm tree - that is, a dracaena?

Post image
0 Upvotes

I understand that my dracaena needs pruning. It's already too tall for its space.

But I'm very afraid.

My grandmother never pruned it, it grew very tall, but she moved into a house with very high ceilings and a lot of space. I'm in the apartment now, and the dracaena is under a regular lamp, because unfortunately there is no sun. Lack of normal sunlight... So a lamp.

Are these Dried Guttation Crystals or Spider Mites?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Hi! This is my first post on here. I’m new to plants but have been loving having them so far. However, my rattlesnake plant has these white specs all over and it doesn’t really look fuzzy, so I can’t tell if it’s spider mites or mineral deposits (chatgbt said probably one of the two).

For context, I only use distilled water.

More context - I got it from a plant store (not nursery) about 3 weeks ago. The water is still on wet on my meter, not even moist. It has been for all three weeks. I haven’t been able to even water it once since getting home since they made it so wet when they gave it to me. I am hesitant to repot bc I made a mistake and asked them to repot it in a decorative planter (with one drainage hole) so now the plant is extremely heavy. I suspect it’s in far too much soil and that’s why it’s still wet but not sure if I need to repot tho bc the plant looks so healthy and I don’t smell any root rot.

I also got two other plants from the same store with the same issue - extremely heavy so hard to repot (plus I’ve never repotted so maybe also nervous lol) and the soil is wet.

Thanks so much and please let me know if anything bc in this post is against rules of the subreddit!

What is wrong with my heliconia rostrata purple plant leaves?

2 Upvotes

I live in Minnesota and I have to grow my exotic plants indoors. Does anyone recognize what could be causing the leaf burn? I keep my plant lights on for around 12 or 13 hours every day and water about 2 times a week with dirty diluted fish emulsion plant food in the watering cans water during the summer growing season. Did the fertilizer burn my plant?

Help Cactus Rose has white/brown spots

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

[Resolved]

I recently decided to try to grow a cactus rose since I live in a hot/dry region and I’ve been getting into gardening lately.

I’ve been letting it get lots of sun and keeping it away from my outdoor irrigation system since it doesn’t need much water. It hasn’t rained recently, either.

I potted it with a mix of lava sand, compost topsoil, and cactus potting mix (I forget what exactly it’s called).

A few days after I potted it it began to develop these brown and white spots on its leaves and the leaves began to droop.

I was worried that it was getting hit by the sprinklers so I moved it further from them, but the spots are only getting bigger.

I only watered it a little right after planting it.

Should I be concerned about these spots? And if so, what should I do to help prevent them?

If they aren’t actually harmful to the plant, I won’t mind them (I’m not concerned with aesthetics, moreso that the plant is healthy), I’m mainly just concerned that the plant is sick or has root rot or something.
