# hi! i got this lil guy back in june of last year, repotted in october…

_Posted by murron g on 2026-01-14_

hi! i got this lil guy back in june of last year, repotted in october (root bound) and it’s been doing pretty good, putting out new leaves regularly and i haven’t had to keep such a close eye on it until recently. this newest leaf has a brown tip to it which is concerning because the last few leaves haven’t had that issue (a few of the older ones near the base do, but they have been like that since i purchased). i keep my humidity around 55-65% so i’m not sure what could be happening. any advice or tips are greatly appreciated! \<3
