Plant Doctor: Find Out What Is Wrong With Your Plant

Yellow leaves? Brown tips? Tiny flies? Pick your plant, tap what you see, and tell us how the soil feels. Plant Doctor matches your answers against the most common plant problems and shows the likely cause, a step-by-step fix and how to stop it coming back.

1Which plant is it?

2What do you see?

Pick everything that applies.

3How does the soil feel 1–2 inches down?

Push a finger into the soil. This one answer clears up a lot.

Plant Doctor gives a best guess from common causes. If a plant gets worse fast, or you see something unusual, take a clear photo to a local garden center or your county extension office.
