# I got this marble queen a few weeks ago, she had one yellow leaf that…

_Posted by Kayla on 2023-07-21_

I got this marble queen a few weeks ago, she had one yellow leaf that I pruned and since then I haven’t noticed any more yellowing so I assumed transplant shock. No wilting, but there are these brown spots and holes on a few leaves. I’m so suspicious of her lol! I have been scouring for pests and I have not seen any but I’m just paranoid. What does the community think?

mine has the exact same problem!! at first i thought fungus spots so i treated her for that, but the brown spots stay pretty small and don’t spread. it could be scarring acquired from the greenhouse or transportation!

Yeah that’s what I think too, because seriously I really don’t see any pests! But if you find a cause for yours let me know lol!

Okay, MY marble queen ALSO has the exact same problems. Did you both purchase yours from Succulent Box???

#### Kayla replied on 2023-07-21

No I got mine from a local nursery!

Mine gets brown spots when I left it get too dry between waterings 🙃 at least that’s what I have noticed.

Could possibly be sun burn! If you watered/used neem oil then left in sun it can burn holes in the leaves.

#### Kayla replied on 2023-07-24

I did not but maybe the nursery did! Either way the plant seems okay and does not have pests at least so I am not too stressed. I think you are correct though that it’s sun damage.
