Repot and check roots ain't rotting. If the toots are ok repot with houseplant compost. Trim off very dead bits. The fungus shouldn't really hurt unless it's mold rather than mush room stuff.

Looking for a new plant to go in our bathroom. Needs to be happy in low light, and the humid side of life. Not pothos.

Yep, good idea will look into them.

Cool! Thanks!

Fern need quite a bit of light though, right?

Can anyone recommend a source of a big ficus benjamina for not crazy money? I'm looking at £50 from Waitrose (incl delivery) for a 1m. And can be pretty confident it'll be good quality.

Found on Peckham Hill Street this morning. I can fix him.

Sorry not quite the right Ficus, but Ikea do some great prices on good sized plants generally.

I'd check local classifieds / small ads 👍

I don’t suppose anyone has some cuttings of trailing hearts Philodendron and or Ceropegia sp. they’d like to sell?

Yeah Def worth to try and save. Repot with new soil bit of feed maybe ?

I've done exactly that. The pot it was in was being held together with tape.

New leaf on bird of paradise not looking happy. Any ideas?

Lidl have some decent sized Euphorbias and caladiums at bargain prices at the mo. This was £11.99.

Judging by the picture, they were clearly also selling euphoria. :)

Any ideas what this is on my chili plant? Red spider mite?

If so best non pesticide way to get rid?

Chillis going strong. I’d leave it.

Sudden infestation of scale insects on Makrut Lime - anyone got any good remedies?

(sticky sap all over was first sign)

Plant itself is pretty strong and a good 6-7 years old.

this is one of those things I can't believe I'm posting but I was told methylated spirit tickled on with the smallest brush you can find - I tried it - it worked. They went on to say something about watching the babies under the shell (I am hoping you'll get a better suggestion but hey)

Oh , and isolate it from other plants
