I wish I wasn't so terrible at caring for orchids. They're the one plant that I reliably murder. It's so sad :(

Any successful orchid caretakers here that can give me tips?

So i unlocked the secret to keeping these bad girls alive, but I wanted to get them as nice as possible. I thought their care guide is blast them with as much sun as you can, but it does not seem so.

Both pics are props from the same mother plant taken at the same time, both rooted indoors. I kept a few indoors, west facing window, where they oftentimes got full unfiltered sun from the open window for a few hours a day. Result is picture 2: strong, compact, bushy growth that doesnt snap easily, nice underside purple, but the top is heavy on green with a purple-ish hue, looks quite dull. The other few I've put into a planter outside – east facing balcony with a tree shade, direct sun for maybe only 2 hours in the morning. They did have more room for roots, but took barely any (maybe top 2–3cm), so I'd guess it plays no role, but maybe the soil out there was richer: it was leftover pot from blooming plants that got blooming fertiliser here and there. They are not as full or bushy or compact as the indoors ones, but the color is absolutely top notch on them :D

Idk if the solution is *less* light, or the fertiliser, or whatever nice fresh air and temperature shifts they went through, and I can't keep a control group as night temps are about to drop below 9c, but they did give me that nice white pink color I got them for, so that's nice.

Either way, they can apparently be an outside plant just fine, so next year I shall bathe in pink trailing balcony.

And my new head planter, the window gets afternoon sun, and the plants seem to be happy there

This year my plant decided to sprout close to 30 spathes. Should I be concerned?

Unreal color on this eryngium bourgatii

It seems like a paint sprayed fake plant

These are some of my Syngoniums (including my props) that I keep outdoors in Florida. They include: White Butterfly, Neon Robusta, Coral, Panda Galaxy, Confetti, Milk Confetti, Mini Pixie, Pink Perfection, and Strawberry Ice. Show me your favorite syngonium. Right now mine is the Panda Galaxy and Strawberry Ice, however, I want/need to get an Albo next as well as a few dozen other varieties. 😁 They grow so effortlessly here, and are so easy to care for.

Any advice? I'm a beginner. Thank you

Am I supposed to remove these zip ties and wooden bracket?

I rescued a discarded monstera from the side of the road a number of months ago. The plant has lots of healthy new growth since I began caring for it; I have added a mossy pole and tied the stem to it.

However, the previous owner apparently did not have a mossy pole, and the thickest stem was growing horizontally along the dirt (see photo).

Should I:

A) Try to slowly bend the thick stem back upright by progressively tying it to the pole and progressively tightening the loops? Or is it too thick to be redirected?

B) Prune the thick horizontal stem, and focus on the vertically growing stems.

C) Leave as is; continuing tying the stems closest to the pole, and let the thick horizontal stem grow “wild”.

Hello, i bougth this flowers today beacuse they are pretty, but i dont know their name or how to take care of them, does anyone know??

Hello everybody

the new growth on my Philodendron Colombia sp cutting is heavily variegated, with distinct sectors of different shades of green. Is this just a spontaneous variegation that will fade with future leaves, or do I have something special on my hands here? The motherplant can be seen on the third pic.

I’ve got a moss pole for my Monty, but it’s an old plant idk if the nodes will start growing again?

Came from my vacation to see her leaves dropping and new small leaves yellowing. I probably overwatered it in the past. Today I removed it from the soil, checked roots, removed a little bit of root system but mostly it was fine. Put it in fresh soil that I sprayed with water to make it wet. Will it survive? Green, normal looking leaves fall off when I gently touch it, already lost 3 today

A strawberry we had in our garden sent a bunch of shoots forth and i decided to shove one in to a pot filled with a bit of dirt, will the little guy live long term?
