Finding light for Episcia in your home
a window
Episcia may have difficulty thriving, and will drop leaves 🍃, without ample sunlight.
Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.
Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Episcia in your home 🏡.
How to fertilize Episcia
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Episcia after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Pink Panther plant, Should I repot or wait ? Hello my lovely plant friends! I'm brand new to the app and finding my way around. I'm not new to plants, just starting completely over and getting my collection going after not having any for 6+ years. I used to have a lot of luck with African violets, and even successful at starting new ones from my grandma plant. I am, however, new to Pink panther plants. It reminds me of the African violet . My question for you is, this pretty girl is brand new. She just arrived yesterday and the pot I was planning to put her in is a 7" pot, which will swallow her tiny self whole 😂. Should I leave her in the current 2" pot for a little while and allow some growth or go ahead and repot to the big one? I know with African violets they prefer to be a tad root bound. Any input would be greatly appreciated. #happyplants, #newplantmom

I have no idea what I’m doing, please help!! Firstly, I believe I have misidentified this plant and the app can’t seem to decide which plant it is. Secondly, I found him like this today. I believe he may be overwatered but I’m not sure. Any help would be appreciated!!

I just got her today, and her flowers were beautiful! I feel so bad, she had to be in my car for about an hour with me and at work for about 7 hours. Should I cut off the flowers? Please let me know I’m so new to plants!!! #FlameViolet

Can anyone please tell me what kind of plant this is? The app says it's a begonia but it doesn't look like any of the other ones I've seen.
