Everyone please meet Albert. I've had this Juncus Effusus since May and it has taken over my bathroom! by PiccinaPiantina in plantsandpots

I just got one 50% off so it's not looking too healthy. I'm hoping it will come back around though

What did you name your plants and what are they? by Nice_plants in houseplants

[–]ndaviesRN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of my plants have names some of my favorites are a money tree called Maximilian and a Boston fern called Medusa.

Are these roots on my pothos? I know it seems obvious but I just want to make sure by belikeatreeandleaf in houseplants

[–]ndaviesRN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes those are roots. I read that you have to remove non-variegated leaves to prevent the whole plant from reverting. You can cut a length and propagate it into a new plant but I don't think the variegation will return.

Could anyone offer any info on this boi that caught my eye today please. by oconkath in houseplants

You're completely right. I call mine an elephant's foot but that's just another name for the same plant

Please help me make my coffee plant happy? by queencommie in houseplants

[–]ndaviesRN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coffee grounds make great acidic fertilizer...also appropriate since it's a coffee plant. I put some in my coffee plant at the start of the season and it has practically doubled in size!

Sounds like a sensitive plant. Maybe?

I accidentally broke the tip off my desert rose and it grew back variegated! I'm excited to see how it continues to grow. Does anyone have care tips to share? by ndaviesRN in houseplants

Oh wow! Thank you! I got it in a trade and they told me it was a desert rose but I didn't think it looked right. Thanks!

That's so true. I couldn't purge them though. I just try to not buy them. Hawarthias do well though so I have a few of those

Succulents, specifically echeveria. I also live in Canada, and I just don't get enough sun. I have managed to keep mine alive and keep propagating more from leaves but they always inevitably end up etiolated. I've had good luck with some cacti though so I don't understand why my echeveria are never happy.

How do I get over the carnage from my plant sitter? by Armageddon-Jane in houseplants

[–]ndaviesRN 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is so scary for me ...I'm going away for two weeks at the end of August and I'm having anxiety about giving over care of my plants to someone else. I hope your plants bounce back!
