| Hello. I am new to taking care of plants. Does anyone know what kind these are? The pink one has one little guy looking a bit droopy and the green hanging plant seems to be limp and has brown spots! Thank you   |

 The first is Celosia and the second is a Philodendron. Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming...."WOW What a Ride!!" -Mark Frost President: Orchid Society of Northern Nevada Webmaster: osnnv.org |

| I agree, #1 Appears to be a variety of Cockscomb (Celosia argentea) #2 Is Heart Leaf Philodendron (Philodendron hederaceum var. oxycardium) ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| The Celosia needs lots of indoor sun and the soil should be kept moist. The Philodendron has a few physically damaged leaves that can be trimmed off. They are not a sign of any disease. Keep it away from direct sun, but otherwise, provide lots of bright indirect light. Water when the top half-inch of soil is dry.
