Beheading echeveria

Question from Yasmin

My echeveria had become stretched over the winter so I chopped it's head off. The head is doing well now in it's own little pot. What will happen now to the bottom of the plant? Will it sprout anything from the top? It is in good condition (except that it had stretched).

Something is eating away at these two plants

Photo from Jackee Holder

I purchased these two plants for my office and within days all these tiny holes started appearing on the leaves. I didn't want the pest to spread to other plants so I placed the two plants onto my balcony. But now it is getting cold I need to bring them back into the office. Do you have any suggestions for how to treat and take care of both plants?

Can anyone recognise this plant?

Question from Jeremy Dent

Grateful for any help. It was a gift and is growing in moss but has doubled in size. Could it be transplanted to a pot and compost?

Can anyone tell me what plant this is?

Question from Val

It's a hanging houseplant, green leaves with red, it flowers in October with pitcher like green flowers, and has long thin seed pods in April, which burst open with fluffy seeds. Would be great if someone can tell me what it is. Thanks in advance, Val

Yuccas

Question from GILL FOX

I have two yuccas which I grow in doors by a south facing patio window. They are well established, approx 1.5m tall. Just recently they have been producing a sticky substance from their leaves which is playing havoc with our flooring! Is this normal for yuccas or am I doing something wrong? Gill F

Why is my lemon tree losing its leaves?

Question from Paula J LaPierre


I have had a potted lemon tree for 18 months--putting it outside for the summer and keeping indoors all winter (I live in Montreal, Canada). Of late it has been loosing leaves a lot though it is still blooming and I am fertilizing the blooms by hand. Most advice says leaf drop is usually caused by over watering but that is not true in my case. What else can be wrong? Thanks, Paula
