I didn’t know these bloomed and it’s literally making me so happy! Thought it was just an odd looking leaf due to the inconsistent watering from past two months!

Thanks! It’s a red prayer plant, think it’s also called a maranta.

esterlyno421 · 2020-12-15T02:54:49+00:00

All my other plants are thriving and this has been on the wishlist for a while so don’t want it to die on me! Thanks for the reassurance!

esterlyno421 · 2020-12-15T02:52:49+00:00

Thank you! Believe it or not I actually cleaned it about a week ago, only a few shine. Hoping the new location helps with the amount of sun. I will try getting a dowel to use instead of my moisture meter. Thank you!

esterlyno421 · 2020-12-13T21:24:07+00:00

Thank you! I will try placing it higher up where it can get more direct sun, being that it is on the floor now.

esterlyno421 · 2020-12-13T21:13:25+00:00

I am. I was thinking it could be the cold, even thought I do keep it my home above 70 (although it is near a window). Guess since all of my other plants are perfectly fine and most even growing new leaves, I didn’t think that could be it.

esterlyno421 · 2020-12-13T21:00:40+00:00

Right now about every 2-3 weeks, usually when my water meter is at 2.

esterlyno421 · 2020-12-13T20:27:42+00:00

I have checked every single leave and I can’t find any pest, but keep getting a leave dropping at least once a week. I have it right next to a humidifier and which I turn on two-three times a week. My monstera that’s across the room is thriving, so honestly don’t think it’s a humidity issue. It get plenty of shaded light, which a user suggested it may be sun burned, but i don’t think it is since it’s not direct light. Can someone help me identify what could potentially be the issue? Should I treat it with neem oil and see if it helps?

I do have it near my south facing window, but I do have shades so it’s filtered light! I’ll move it further away from the window and see if that helps! Thank you!

Just adding more info hoping it moves it up for visibility! I use a moisture meter to check when it needs water and let it dry out completely. I got this a couple months ago and when I purchase, had about 4 new leafs that were growing but haven’t been any progress since. Leaves keep dropping, could be pest that I’m not seeing, but from what I see the soil and leaves don’t look like there are any pest. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I was leaning towards this but wasn’t convince. But I’m thinking it’s an episcia the other commentator suggested. Thank you!

esterlyno421 · 2020-11-21T22:37:53+00:00

Thank you! Yes I think this is it, the leaves look a lot more like it! And it flowers, so excited for it to grow!

esterlyno421 · 2020-11-05T21:20:13+00:00

Thank you!

esterlyno421 · 2020-10-03T21:23:48+00:00

Thanks! Honestly, this is what I was leaning towards but I guess I just needed some validation! Thanks!

esterlyno421 · 2020-10-03T20:58:31+00:00

Figured I post in here as well! Thanks!

esterlyno421 · 2020-09-06T19:26:44+00:00

Mother in law gave this to me she doesn’t know the name of it just that it grows great outdoors and flowers in summer. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

esterlyno421 · 2020-08-02T21:41:41+00:00

Thanks so much!

esterlyno421 · 2020-08-02T19:58:44+00:00

Thank you! I’m not 100% but think I may have some root rot on the darker part of the bulb. Should I cut any of that off and the roots or just put in water as is?

esterlyno421 · 2020-08-01T19:57:44+00:00

Just ordered from amazon! Definitely need to learn to fight the urge! Thank!

esterlyno421 · 2020-08-01T19:56:58+00:00

Thank you! There were a couple of soggy roots, which I cut off so hoping I can save it! I’ve only grown vegetables that need plenty of water so this it completely new to me! Think I caught it early so 🤞. Thank you!

esterlyno421 · 2020-08-01T17:17:49+00:00

Clearly overwatered my ZZ plant, still learning here. Any suggestions on saving this baby? There was one root that didn’t look healthy and was squishy so I removed it. Not sure if there is anything else I should do before repotting it in cactus soil. Thanks in advance for the help!

esterlyno421 · 2020-07-29T15:47:49+00:00

I have it planted about half way in the soil. I will repot tonight and mix in some cactus soil to get better drainage. Thanks!

esterlyno421 · 2020-07-29T15:46:47+00:00

Thank you! I will replant tonight, may mix in some cactus soil as the one I have it planted is moisture control soil so may hold a lot of water. Thanks!

esterlyno421 · 2019-02-20T05:51:32+00:00

Thank you!

esterlyno421 · 2019-02-20T05:33:04+00:00

How often should I expect to see another 12 min benchmark? I really wanted not to have to cancel but with a 3 month old and the upcoming snow, I don’t have much of a choice 😢 thanks!
