I bought a Maranta Fascinator from ebay this week and it arrived half eaten by thrips and aphids. Pure raging.

I have isolated the plant from my others to prevent spread.

I removed all the bugs I could see with forceps and changed the soil and am giving it babybio fertilizer in case it's a bit manourished.

Will it survive or is it kaput?

So long as it's not wilted. I'd be more worried about it dying of shock after the travel then the soil change. Anyway you've nothing to lose by giving it a chance.

Forceps? That seems mad. Why not just spray it down with soapy water?

My Tradescantia nanouk flowered this week.

Is there a 'Houseplants General' thread on/eco/ that I've missed, or are you all just more interested in pissing in compost?

Aphids fucked my two kalenchoes despite me using everything advised, they're like little terminators and just keep coming back somehow out of thin air. Months on and I still have to check them daily and I'm still finding 3-5 a week on one of them. Nothing seems to have worked and I've given up at this point. I tried a chemical bug spray specifically for aphids on one, and while it's been the most aphid free, it's stopped growing and looks like it's dying. Can't seem to bloody win.

Why are the tips of my Alocasia turning yellow?

I really don't want to kill this one...

It could be because you're over-watering it, or under watering it, over-feeding it or under-feeding it. Does it get enough light? It's quite pale.
