I have a plant, which keeps growing, and is now about 48" tall most of that is the two stems with bunches of green leaves at the very top. There are 6 leaves to a stem that are growing from one of the two long major stems. I don't know what it is called. I was told a "dollar tree" but can't find that name anywhere. My problem is that it has started to have little sticky dot like substances on the leaves and they are dying. Can you identify the plant for me and tell me how to kill whatever is putting that sticky stuff on the leaves, please.
The sticky substance can be Honeydew, caused by pests. You can treat the plant with Neem Oil; it will take care of most pests.
You can also send us an image of the plant and we can help you identify the plant.

What is this?
It appears that you have Norfolk Island seedlings.
They look very healthy. You may want to separate these and plant in individual pots.
Here is a link with more information on this plant.

Just had a question about a shrub growing out in our yard. I've attached an image of the leaves.
Zone is 11b. I'm in East Asia.
Have not seen flowers yet.
Shrub is about 9 cm tall, and 12 cms across at the thickest part.
Leaves alone make it difficult to make an identification.
If you could include more information, it would be helpful.
Where are you located; your growing zone?
Does the shrub flower?
Size of the shrub, diameter, height?
I rec'd this plant over 8 years ago at my mom's funeral. It has been happy living w/ my Dad, but he wants to get rid of it, so we cut it down, and I have no idea what it is called and how to care, if it is dangerous to pets. Please help me identify - give care advice - and verify if it is poisonious or dangerous. thank you
From the photos, it looks like it may be a variety of Aglaonema (Chinese Evergreen) and it is considered toxic to dogs. Here is more information on it care, though if you have a curious canine, you may want to keep it away from it or get rid of the plant: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/houseplants/chinese-evergreen/chinese-evergreen-plants.htm
I have a flowering plant in my yard that appears to be dormant or possibly dead. I’m not sure what it is or the status of its health. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.
Without knowing your location or having leaves to assist ID, my guess focuses on Peegee hygrangea or snowball viburnum. Typically these are shrubs but can be shaped into tree form. It surely needs a good pruning which is best done in the dormant season for these two.
