# I’m not sure what the problem is but some of the leaves on my big…

_Posted by The Middleton’s on 2024-03-22_

I’m not sure what the problem is but some of the leaves on my big girl are turning yellow. She’s got new shoots and leaves but also these few problem leaves.  
I mist her regularly which is necessary because it is very dusty in Lubbock. Before now I haven’t had any problems, not even after transplanting her. Any help appreciated

If it’s mostly lower leaves I wouldn’t be too worried, it’s totally normal for a plant that size to lose lower leaves.

If its not lower leaves, then I would be checking for pests and really paying attention to the watering of it.

I was going to say the same. If it’s lower leaves, it’s likely just shedding the old ones.
