What kind of plant is this? Greg says this is Italian Strawflower, but I thought maybe it is Spanish Moss. Though it feels and looks sturdier than moss. Is it maybe another kind of airplant? #ItalianStrawflower #SpanishMoss #AirPlant #SucculentSquad

Licorice plant looking sad Hi there, I was hoping that someone could help me diagnose the trouble Iām having with my new licorice plant. Orā¦ at least I think itās a licorice plant? She looks brown and a little dried up - I tried moving her out of direct sunlight and watering her more but it doesnāt seem to be helping. Any suggestions? Thanks Greg! #PlantTherapy #PlantCorner #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #HappyPlants
