Finding light for Blackeyed Susan in your home

Yellow Daisy love being close to bright, sunny windows 😎.
Place it less than 1ft from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.

How to fertilize Yellow Daisy
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 Yellow Daisy after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Novice needs guidance. The leaves of my #philodendron Moonlight turned yellow almost overnight. What have I done to my poor plant!? What can I do now? Thank you! #Philodendron

Now, for my #NewGrowth Outdoor Edition: Black Eyed Susan for days and days; my white lilies were the last to bloom but are enormous (like, the size of dinner plates!); I have strawberries coming in; and 2 more pics of my wildflowers erupting. More in the comments! #HappyPlants #OutdoorGrowing #OutsidePlants #BlackEyedSusan #Larkspur #Strawberry #lilies #babevila

Status update: #BennyTheTreeFrog 🐸 He is back and perfectly fine! No injuries, and back to sunning himself on his porch! So happy his tumble didn’t scare him away permanently 🤗 I just love the little guy so much. Here he is earlier today while I was at work. He was hanging out with my mom and admiring his new pool we made him! And you’ll notice that I tied his pot to the deck railing in addition to putting a heavy rock inside, so there’s no way he will have another fall! 💚 In plant news: my #BlackEyedSusan are all beginning to bloom now! There definitely seems to be some powdery mildew on some of them, though, so I will be hitting it with some fungicide on Wednesday. Also, look at this absolutely tiny spider who made a web in my yellow hibiscus! She’s so small I could barely see her; grateful for zoom technology! 🤣🕷️🥹🐸💖🌻 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #OutdoorGrowing #OutsidePlants #GardenWildlife #BennyTheTreeFrog #babevila #PlantTherapy #PlantsSavedMyMentalHealth

#OutdoorGrowing 1. My lilies are starting to flower! This was the first one to bloom this season! 2. My larkspur continues to bloom upwards and it’s looking lovelier all the time. 3. More of my lilies about to pop 🥰 4. My dozens and dozens of Black Eyed Susans are going to bloom soon, as well! Next week, I hope to be posting the results 🌻🌻🌻 And last but not least, one of the many caterpillars 🐛 who ravaged my rose bushes, actively eating a rose because they finished eating all the leaves… I’m a nature lover so I’m trying really hard to be patient with these little dudes, but O.M.G. 😡 my beautiful roses. I know the little munchers will soon be gone so I let him enjoy his dinner… #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #GardenLife #Larkspur #BlackEyedSusan #RoseBush #PestsAndPlants #LilyLover #Blooming #OutsidePlants #babevila

Hi everyone! I'm completely new to the plant world, just bought a bunch yesterday. This morning my black eyed Susan was looking fine, perky and healthy. But hours later, droopy and sad! Anyone know why? Did I over water it, does it not like the hot humid weather? I watered yesterday but not today, and it's been mid 80sF.

I just bought this plant at Home Depot a couple days ago and now it looks like it’s wilting 🙁 I have it placed right outside my front door. My house is south facing and do get a lot of light throughout the day. I just put some water and brought it inside. I’m thinking maybe the sun is too much? Please help 🙏 #NewPlantMom #BlackEyedSusan
