I know there isn’t much I can do about this but it is annoying. This plant constantly pushes out new leaves alongside another new leaf that is still working towards unfurling. This results in bruising/damage to the leaf due to the pressure/force from the new leaf forcing its way through (see the two leaves that got damaged)
